Hello, Legal Helm listeners.

Today’s episode features a conversation at the intersection of artificial intelligence, professional services, and the future of knowledge work.

For this episode, we’re pleased to welcome Kourosh “KZ” Zamani, co-founder of Laurel, an AI platform helping professional services firms rethink one of the most fundamental aspects of their business: time itself. Laurel applies AI to automatically capture and understand work activity across devices and applications, helping firms improve profitability, client delivery, and operational insight.

Prior to founding Laurel, Kourosh worked in investment management and strategic business development, where he developed a strong focus on operational efficiency, business growth, and the evolving dynamics of professional services.

In this episode, we explore how AI is reshaping knowledge work, from how work gets done to how it is measured, valued, and monetized, and what these changes mean for the future of professional services organizations.

Stay tuned for a thoughtful and insightful conversation on innovation, AI adoption, and the evolving relationship between technology and professional work.
