About usWho We Are

LegalTemplates is the leading SaaS product of Taroko.io, a 50-person startup incubator with a history of creating cutting-edge and user-friendly products that redefine markets and shake up the competition. We're not sitting around trying to achieve product/market fit and burning VC funding while expecting everyone to work ridiculous hours for low probability of future reward. We're profitable, organized, experienced, and in growth mode. 

Our platform will modernize the entire legal experience for small business owners, landlords and individuals. From starting a business, to renting out a home, to getting married, our company will be there to help make the process affordable, compliant, and fast. 

What We Do

Taroko’s on a mission to help everyday people and companies facilitate the workflow of their personal and professional lives, with a fraction of the normal cost. Our modern and easy-to-use solution has helped hundreds of thousands of ordinary people save millions in legal fees they’d ordinarily spend on a lawyer. Legal Templates is tackling a multi-billion dollar global market by creating the highest quality and legally accurate contracts available to consumers.

Why We’re Different

We're not sitting around trying to achieve product/market fit and burning VC funding while expecting everyone to work ridiculous hours for low probability of future reward. We're profitable, organized, experienced, and in growth mode. Not going the VC route means our team can do things differently, and compensate our people differently.
