I’m building tools that make lawyers wish they’d started using AI years ago.


Hey, I’m Sona! I’m a lawyer-turned-founder on a mission to make life easier for legal teams.


I’ve spent years navigating the corporate and legal worlds, from Ropes & Gray to Salesforce and now as the CEO and Founder of Pincites. Along the way, I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the painfully inefficient side of legal workflows. That’s why I’m passionate about building practical AI solutions that help legal teams save time, reduce errors, and become better strategic partners.


At Pincites, my team and I have tested dozens of models, read every study on AI in the legal practice, and spoken with hundreds of lawyers about their biggest challenges. The result? A streamlined, AI-powered approach to contract review and negotiation that works for in-house teams of all sizes.


No tech background? No problem. My goal is to show legal teams how to use AI to enhance their work without the jargon or the stress.


If you’re curious about how AI can make your legal work less tedious (and way more efficient), let’s chat. It’s easier than you think, and I promise it’ll be worth it!
