From Law Firm to AI Startup: The Future of Compliance
When your clients start using GPT — you know the game has changed.
In this episode of The Dumb Monkey Show, Aamir Qutub and Divina Montgomery sit down with Simon Quirke, CEO and Founder of Graceview, a RegTech startup using AI to make compliance effortless.
Simon shares how his journey from lawyer to entrepreneur led him to tackle one of the hardest problems in business: keeping up with constantly changing regulations. He explains how Graceview monitors thousands of regulatory sources in real time — building a “regulatory fingerprint” that companies can trust, while ChatGPT and Google models struggle with accuracy.
We also dive into:
- The future of law in an AI-powered world
- Why data ownership will define the next decade
- How to build a startup around a complex, valuable problem
- The mindset and hustle required to survive the startup rollercoaster
Whether you’re in law, tech, or leadership — this conversation shows how AI isn’t replacing professionals, it’s redefining their value.
