The platform can build apps to help do things like online databases to help clients figure out if they're in compliance with regulations or automate searches for trademarks— tasks that would otherwise take a lot of time., as the need for software to help rises beyond the number of developers available to build those type of tools.
Specifically, it recently introduced NRF Transform NCode, a new tool to help its employees make simple apps that can handle complex legal queries, with no coding required. The tool is meant to help the firm's lawyers better respond to client questions around issues like regulatory compliance, trademark issues, worker's compensation, and so on.
NRF's move is well-timed, as the legal industry looks to be one of the many that will be hit by what some expect to be a coming developer shortage. Companies like Microsoft and Google are all racing to establish themselves in this so-called low-code/no-code market, Hounsell said the firm started seeing a lot of technical requests from clients that were not possible for the firm's IT department to handle. These were things like helping a company comply with new regulations or making a chatbot to answer legal questions — all things to help with delivering legal services to the firm's clients.
