From A Hackathon Win To A 650K Round And 10,000 Users, Docracy Tells All

Screen shot 2012-05-18 at 1.29.11 PMThe tale of Docracy's year-long journey is a fun one. When Matt Hall and his partner John Watkinson first went into the Hackathon last year, the only goal was to get a prototype working for an idea they had, a GitHub for legal documents. Sure, a win would've been nice, but the main goal was to push out a prototype they could pitch to investors (instead of just an idea) with a firm deadline hanging over their shoulders. But alas, Docracy took home the top prize despite the fact that they were the first of more than 100 presentations that day. And after last year's Disrupt NYC (tickets to this year's Disrupt here), the story only gets better.
