Systems that draft. Lawyers who decide.

Sentanis is built by an infrastructure product founder and a practicing California litigator, advised by operators from AI engineering, go-to-market, and the law. We won’t pretend to know the non-standard auto business better than the people in your building. We know what this class of system can do.

CEO, technical co-founder

Matt Soldo

Founded Heroku Postgres and grew it into a $100M+/yr business. Senior director at Docker, in charge of all SaaS services. Product manager for Cloud Run and Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL at Google. Stanford BA, Wharton MBA.

The system half of the company: the claims workspace, the Sentinel, the citation audit, and the human gates that hold every decision to a named person.

Legal co-founder

California litigator, attorney, and entrepreneur. Formerly president and general counsel of Svendsen's Boat Works and Pacific Shops; Commodore of the St. Francis Yacht Club.

Jobs at Sentanis

We are a small team building the defense side of a fight the plaintiff bar has already automated. If you are an engineer who wants to work on document intelligence, retrieval, and audit trails that a court may one day read, or a claims or legal professional who wants to shape what the system does next, get in touch.
