Self-Service Legal Talent Platform
Your review team.
Sourced and ready by morning.
Faster than any traditional agency.
Altorney is a self-service platform that helps law firms, ALSPs, and government agencies instantly source the right legal talent for every project, track every detail in real time, and optimize productivity. Altorney removes unnecessary layers compared to traditional staffing agencies, giving you everything in one easy-to-use platform — powering you with the right tools to manage projects seamlessly from start to finish.
GenAI Intelligence Platform
Human Review
without a Human Team.
Before the hosted review platform ever sees a file.
MARC is an intelligent reasoning platform that automatically analyzes, categorizes, and vets your documents before they even reach your review environment. By applying human-level logic with machine-level consistency, MARC eliminates the burnout and headaches of traditional review — ensuring that when your team starts their review or investigation, they are focusing only on the most critical, high-value information. Each document has been categorized just like a human would: Relevance, Responsiveness, Issues, Privilege, PII, PHI, Trade Secret, Confidentiality, and more.
Relevance
Responsive
Privilege
Issues
PII
PHI
Trade Secret
Confidentiality

MARC for Investigations
Who. What. When. Answered in minutes, not weeks.
MARC redefines the approach to investigations by eliminating the complex “prompt engineering” required by traditional platforms. Your investigation begins with a natural, multi-modal kickoff — type a brief case description, chat directly with your data, or upload key artifacts like complaints, subpoenas, and RFPs to give MARC instant, high-level context.
Chat directly with your data
Define your core objectives to set the engine in motion. Chat directly with your data to get immediate insight into your matter in minutes.
Adaptive Learning Engine
Intuitively guide the AI through simple yes / no tagging. MARC continuously learns, re-ranks entire datasets, and actively seeks “unknown unknowns” — rapidly surfacing high-confidence, relevant documents to accelerate investigations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything, answered.
From corporate background to platform mechanics — the questions teams ask before bringing review and investigations onto Altorney.
Altorney was founded by Rachi and Shimmy Messing. Both founders possess extensive, multi-year experience within the legal document review and eDiscovery industries. They started Altorney to create smarter, more efficient tools to meet the industry's evolving needs.
Altorney offers two purpose-built solutions:
Altorney Connect — a self-service platform that helps law firms, ALSPs, corporate legal departments, and government agencies instantly source the right legal talent for every project, track every detail in real time, and optimize productivity. It removes unnecessary layers compared to traditional staffing agencies, giving you everything in one easy-to-use platform.
MARC — an intelligent reasoning platform that automatically analyzes, categorizes, and vets your documents before they ever reach a hosted review environment. By applying human-level logic with machine-level consistency, MARC eliminates the burnout and headaches of traditional review — ensuring your team focuses only on the most critical, high-value information.
We would love for you to use both! However, each is designed to be used independently to fit your needs.

MARC is Altorney's specialized technology framework designed to streamline high-stakes litigation document reviews, internal corporate investigations, and complex cyber data breach responses. It combines high-powered GenAI with precision review workflows to significantly accelerate document indexing, factual chronology building, and entity extraction.
MARC is engineered for corporate legal departments, law firms, alternative legal service providers (ALSPs), and specialized investigation units that require rapid, defensible, and secure discovery handling during active litigation, regulatory inquiries, or immediate post-incident response.
The framework is built to scale across diverse modern discovery requirements. Key workflows include key-document filtering for commercial litigation, investigative analysis for regulatory compliance, data breach personally identifiable information (PII) lookups, protected health information (PHI) extraction, and high-volume data notification tracking.
MARC utilizes enterprise-grade encryption protocols, secure multi-tenant data isolation, and strict role-based access control lists (ACLs). This ensures that sensitive corporate documents, investigative findings, and compromised data sets maintain the highest standard of defensibility and regulatory compliance throughout the review lifecycle.
Both! We understand that clients have different needs as they balance security, cost effectiveness, and operational and technology resource constraints. MARC is available to use when, where, and how you need.
The Altorney Platform is an advanced, on-demand online marketplace and management platform that directly connects clients with legal and cyber document review needs to qualified reviewers. By establishing a modern, self-service infrastructure, the platform removes unnecessary intermediaries, maximizes transaction efficiency, and provides integrated tools to seamlessly manage reviews from initiation to completion.
Unlike single-provider legal staffing models or traditional agencies, Altorney acts as an industry-wide clearinghouse platform that aggregates multiple vendors, law firms, and service providers. This automation-first architectural stance introduces robust market efficiencies, removes human placement bias, and cuts heavy back-office costs.
Traditional agencies rely on manual placement and high markups. Altorney operates in a self-service mode: we do not manually place candidates. Instead, candidates apply directly to your active projects based on the precise criteria, qualifications, and filters you establish. The platform automates administrative tasks — such as conflict checking, project history tracking, and eSign onboarding forms — substantially lowering overhead costs and returning those direct savings to both clients and reviewers.
The platform specializes comprehensively in legal document review, including general litigation, employment, antitrust, privacy matters, foreign language reviews, cyber data breach response, and paralegal services. Ongoing expansions include specialized legal infrastructure fields such as legal project management, court reporting, and court appearances.
Our user base spans the entire legal ecosystem, including law firms, Alternative Legal Service Providers (ALSPs), management consulting firms, government agencies, and corporate legal departments.
Once your corporate account is activated by our onboarding team, log in and create a project shell using our integrated on-demand workflow sourcing wizard. Define one or more customized 'Reviewer Types' with your specific parameters (skills, jurisdiction, pay rates). The system automatically cross-references active profiles, matching reviewers apply directly, and work can begin immediately upon your digital acceptance. Setup templates to easily jump-start projects to your specifications.
A Reviewer Type is a functional subset of a case used to define distinct operational cohorts. It allows a single project or case to be partitioned by specific skills, availability, and pay scales. For example, a single case may run a 'First Pass' cohort at rate X, a 'Team Lead' cohort at rate Y, and a specialized 'Japanese Language Review' cohort at rate Z.
Yes. By navigating to the 'Search for Reviewers' left-hand menu option, you can execute a granular search across the talent pool based on your target criteria to analyze real-time resource volume. For highly specialized requests, you can contact Support directly via chat or email to initiate targeted recruitment.
Yes. After configuring all requirements within the Reviewer Type wizard, you can utilize the toggle 'Start/Stop Recruit' button on the final screen to leave the status inactive. This allows you to lock in parameters and gauge candidate volume while holding recruitment until you toggle it to 'Start Recruiting'.
While a large percentage of our talent pool consists of law school graduates barred in one or more U.S. jurisdictions, the platform also hosts specialized non-attorney reviewers eligible for distinct projects. Clients specify exact credential filters (e.g., specific state bar requirements, J.D.-required, or non-attorney paralegal tracks) during the initial Reviewer Type configuration.
Applied candidates are routed to your 'Pending Reviewers' dashboard page, and an automated alert is triggered. You can inspect comprehensive digital profiles, including uploaded resumes, historical platform metrics, and answers to your project-specific vetting questions. Accepting a candidate sends an immediate invite notification; once the reviewer confirms, project-specific documents and manager contact details unlock automatically.
Yes, through two embedded mechanisms: (1) 'Invite Existing' allows you to filter and select 'Favorite' reviewers from your historical projects who are currently unengaged or permitted to perform concurrent work. (2) 'Invite by Email' permits you to send a direct, project-linked invitation to an individual's personal inbox; new users will be guided through a streamlined profile creation wizard before routing directly into your project pool.
Reviewers log hours directly in the system. The platform enforces strict validation rules, preventing time logging outside active project dates. When timecard periods close, clients are notified to approve entries. Reviewers must complete entries by Monday at 11:59 PM for the preceding week. Clients must approve entries by Tuesday night; if unreviewed, the platform's automated compliance guardrails execute an automatic approval to protect system payment schedules.
The baseline use of the platform and account provisioning for unlimited team members is entirely free. Altorney operates on a transparent percentage markup calculated directly on top of the hourly reviewer rates you establish. Invoices are automatically generated and delivered electronically (weekly or monthly based on contractual preferences) and are due in compliance with your agreed terms.
Contact our sales team to learn more about custom packages and options available.
Altorney actively supports the career advancement of its marketplace professionals. All client agreements contain an explicit conversion clause enabling direct corporate hiring. We request that you contact account management immediately upon making a placement decision so we can finalize system offboarding and issue the standard transition invoice per contract terms.
Reviewers can instantly access open opportunities by clicking the 'Find Projects' button located in the upper right quadrant of the portal. Our advanced search engine allows filtering by specific skills, compensation ranges, and workflow rules. If you have active profile notifications enabled, direct application links will also route to your inbox when a project matches your background. Clicking 'Apply' prompts you to complete project-specific screening questions and sign electronic onboarding documents before routing to the client.
If a project is absent from your search index, verify that your active filters are not inadvertently hiding it. Additional structural reasons include: the project cohort has reached its structural reviewer cap, the client has paused active recruitment, a conflict of interest was identified, or the project calendar directly overlaps with an active project you occupy that prohibits concurrent work.
Reviewers may maintain multiple pending applications. However, certain projects impose strict exclusivity rules due to data volume or client preference. These rules are tracked under the 'Allows concurrent work' flag in the project description. If you accept and become active on a project that restricts concurrent engagement, your overlapping pending applications will be systematically withdrawn.
No. While numerous client mandates demand an active bar license or a Juris Doctor degree, Altorney hosts a diverse array of projects (such as cyber data breach indexing and paralegal reviews) that do not require legal licensure. Utilize the Advanced Search interface to isolate opportunities tailored to your specific technical skills.
The platform provides two primary timekeeping options within our integrated system: (1) A real-time digital timer widget pinned to the bottom left corner of the platform window, functional during active project windows. (2) A manual entry form accessible via the 'Time Entries' dashboard page. Clients maintain granular control and can specify whether their project accepts one or both methods (the system default permits both).
Navigate immediately to your 'Time Entries' ledger page. For each recorded block, an 'Edit/Update' and a 'Delete' button remain accessible. Crucially, these modifications are only permitted while the entry is in a pending state; once a client formally Approves or Rejects a time entry, it is locked into the payroll database and cannot be modified directly.
Reviewers are expected to enter time daily. Hours must be logged before the payroll period window closes. If an emergency prevents submission within the active period, you must immediately email support@altorney.com with an itemized breakdown of the exact dates and hours worked so our system administrators can manually inject the data into the backend database.
Altorney supports maximum operational flexibility. Clients determine the classification framework that suits their organizational structure, meaning projects are explicitly designated as either Independent Contractor (1099) or Temporary Employee (W2) engagements. Reviewers can filter notification preferences to show only 1099, only W2, or both options. While direct employment benefits are restricted for 1099 contracts, Altorney provides an integrated 'Benefits' menu tab providing access to discounted partner programs, including healthcare marketplaces and career mentorship tracks.
Upon your first successful project assignment, you will receive an automated account activation link from our centralized payroll partners. Standard platform deposits occur weekly on Fridays. Verified historical tax forms (1099/W2) remain permanently downloadable by logging directly into the respective payment portal through which your work was performed.
