AfterQuery Company Development

Turning Legal Work into Repeatable Model Tests

AfterQuery’s collaboration with Legora took its evaluation work into legal practice. The teams used matters and supporting documents developed with participating firms to create tasks that could be run repeatedly against legal agents.

AfterQuery Competitive Landscape

AfterQuery and Fireworks AI both serve teams working on model behavior, but at different stages. AfterQuery supplies expert examples, reinforcement-learning rubrics and agent environments. Fireworks gives teams infrastructure to serve models and evaluate or improve them alongside deployment.
