In this founder-to-founder conversation, Philip Young (CEO) and Daniel Long (CTO) unpack their legal product Garfield AI. Built around precision and empathy, the result is a guided path through small debt claims that feels friendly on the surface and is rigorous under the hood.

We begin with Daniel’s background in physics and his journey to legal tech, exploring how energy, scale, and reliability shaped our architecture. We then consider the broader implications of faster legal processes, including the changing economics of justice and the potential for AI-enabled triage and drafting to increase access to legal services.

How is AI helping businesses get unpaid invoices paid?

Join Philip Young, CEO and Co-Founder of Garfield AI, as he explains how AI is transforming debt recovery for small businesses and sole traders across England & Wales. Philip shares early success stories from the platform, from finance teams recovering years-old debt to a sole trader getting £7,000 back after spending just four minutes on Garfield!

He also discusses how lawyers have reacted to Garfield, why pay-as-you-go pricing actually improves access to justice, and what these early outcomes on Garfield really suggest about the future direction of the company and legal technology generally.
