Ep 183: Dan Hauck, Chief Product Officer at NetDocuments, On the Company’s Product Strategy and Roadmap

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Over seven years as a litigator of complex commercial and antitrust cases,</span> <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/danhauck/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Dan Hauck</span></a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">had become frustrated over how difficult it was for legal teams to collaborate around matters. In 2014, he left his law firm, Bryan Cave, to start ThreadKM, a matter-centric legal collaboration platform. As the product evolved, it developed integrations with the document management platform NetDocuments, and in 2017, NetDocuments acquired ThreadKM, resulting in the NetDocuments product ndThread. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now, Hauck is chief product officer at</span> <a href= "https://www.netdocuments.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">NetDocuments</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">, where he is responsible for the company’s strategic vision, partnerships, products, user interface and roadmap. Over the past year, he was instrumental in the company’s launch of PatternBuilder, a product for building applications and automating legal documents, and its acquisition of Worldox. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Earlier this month, at the NetDocuments three-day Inspire 2022 conference for customers and partners, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi sat down with Hauck for a live conversation about the company’s product strategy and roadmap. Spoiler alert: His vision for the platform spans automating and linking every stage of the legal document workflow. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Thank You To Our Sponsors</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.
