Built for founders who can't afford to wing it, and shouldn't have to.
Most founders learn about legal the hard way — after a bad handshake deal, a cease-and-desist, or a term sheet they didn't understand. Cairn is the opposite of learning the hard way.
01
Clarity, not chaos
Find what's missing when it costs the least — before the lawsuit, not after.
02
Your roadmap, your pace
No generic checklist. A priority order built around what your business actually needs.
03
Trained by a lawyer + engineer
AI trained on real expertise, tuned by a practicing attorney and kept sharp over time.
04
Confidence, compounded
Every founder who finishes says the same thing: "I finally know where I stand."
— Curriculum

— FAQ
Questions, sensibly answered.
Is Cairn a substitute for a lawyer?+
No. Cairn gives you clarity on what you actually need, when you need it. Many founders use the program first, then bring a focused, prepped brief to an attorney for the things that genuinely need one — saving hours of billable time.
Who is it for?+
Early and growth-stage founders who'd rather understand their legal exposure than pay to be surprised by it later.
How long does the checkup take?+
About three minutes. Answer nine questions about your business and get a personalized roadmap immediately.
What happens after the checkup?+
You get your result on the spot and the full breakdown by email — plus the right next step for how you want to fix things: learn it yourself, or hand it to counsel.
Do I need any legal background?+
None. Everything is written in plain language, guided step by step, and tailored to your specific situation.
What does it cost?+
The legal checkup is free. The Legally Aligned program is $297, and that includes the complete course: all four modules, the documents you generate as you work through them, and the weekly live calls from launch.
