Turning regulatory complexity into structured, computable legal workflows

About

I'm Legal Counsel at Capgemini in Germany (dual SME in AI governance and EU cybersecurity) and Of Counsel at Planit Legal, a boutique IT and data protection firm in Hamburg. Day to day, I work across EU digital regulations and complex technology transactions. I started building legal tools out of interest&frustration: regulatory requirements scattered across dozens of instruments, no practical way to operationalize compliance, and a persistent gap between legal advice and business implementation. That turned into several AI-enhanced tools covering contract analysis, cross-regulatory compliance mapping, and automated regulatory monitoring. I'm currently developing a modular AI skill library for legal workflows, a RAG pipeline for EU legal documents, and running AI service pilots at Capgemini. What draws me to LegalQuants: I want to be part of bringing Legal to code and the digital age, as I believe it is the next level of our practice. I'm looking for people who think the same way and want to learn from what others are building.

Philosophy

"AI won't replace lawyers, but it can make legal knowledge accessible to people who currently can't afford it"

Building tools and frameworks that lower the barrier between complex regulation and the people who need to understand it. To me, that's a goal worth working toward.
