📚 The Problem
It’s no secret that the immigration system in the U.S. is broken. Anyone pursuing a work or immigrant visa will tell you about the difficulties of lottery systems, exorbitant fees, and endless paperwork.
At Parley, they believe an important piece to fixing this process is automating work for immigration firms. For some visa types, a lawyer or legal writer spends several days writing a single application, learning about the most complex and technical professions, collating hundreds of pages of evidence, and synthesizing it all into a cohesive petition. Meanwhile, an applicant eagerly waits for their opportunity. By helping lawyers work better on a daily basis, they hope to accelerate Parley’s speed to impact — reducing the complexity of immigration.
✍️ The Solution
Parley makes immigration processes easier. Their first product, the O-1A Writer, helps immigration attorneys speed write a petition while keeping them in the loop. As a lawyer does the critical thinking in specifying what argument they want to make, their writer dynamically pulls content from an applicant's evidence, fits that material to the context of the application, and automatically drafts a petition for review. They do this all directly in Microsoft Word — where most attorneys spend their time writing. They’re quickly expanding support for more visa types like the H-1B, TN, EB-1, EB-2 NIW, L-1, and more.
