033 - Joshua Browder (DoNotPay) On Robot Lawyers

Joshua Browder has built one of the coolest products I have ever used, DoNotPay. What started as a way to fight parking tickets has grown into an app the waits in phone lines for you when calling companies, cancels trials for you automatically, and can get through legal matters that you don’t want to spend time on. Funded by Founders Fund, a16z, Index Ventures and more, this is a unicorn in the making. On this show, Joshua and I dive into:

What is DoNotPay?

Why did you start DoNotPay?

What are some of the use cases for DoNotPay?

How do you trick companies to treat DoNotPay users like gold?

How do you get the word out about DoNotPay?

How do you help your users find hidden money?

What does the future of DoNotPay look like in a decade?

What are the plans for future features for DoNotPay?

What movements in the tech world interest you as a technologist?

Is AI taking our jobs? Are you helping this move faster?

What advice would you have for someone wanting to start their own company?

And tons more!
