Background

About Olga V. Mack

I design and measure legal and decision systems that govern how people allocate power, manage risk, and resolve conflict under uncertainty. I am a legal technologist, CEO, and former General Counsel working at the intersection of law, technology, and organizational decision-making. I have founded and scaled multiple legal technology companies, including a legal tech startup acquired by LexisNexis, and I advise enterprises on risk, governance, and legal system design. My work focuses on translating legal complexity into measurable, operational systems. This includes developing benchmarks for contract friction and trust, designing scalable legal workflows, and building tools that support durable decision-making across enterprise contracting, product law, litigation operations, and dispute resolution. Much of this work involves modeling how decisions are made under uncertainty and aligning responsibility, incentives, and control. I have authored and edited multiple books and publications on legal innovation, technology, and governance, and I have delivered six TEDx talks on the future of law, AI, and human-centered legal systems. My work is frequently cited in discussions of legal innovation, AI governance, and the modernization of legal systems. Previously, I served as a General Counsel, guided companies through IPOs and acquisitions, prosecuted cases as a San Francisco Deputy District Attorney, taught at Berkeley Law, conducted research at Stanford Law, and received multiple industry and professional honors. I was born in Ukraine and immigrated to the United States as a teenager. I believe law should function as essential infrastructure: reliable, transparent, and accessible, particularly in moments of uncertainty and conflict.
