​​Parachute | Private Launch Night for SME Law Firms

​Customs House, Brisbane
399 Queen Street, Brisbane City QLD 4000

​​Wednesday 25 March | 5:30pm

​​

​​Why this night matters

​​If you run a small-to-medium law firm, you can relate — clients want premium work, fast turnaround, fixed fees, and zero friction, but most firms are still running on duct tape, outdated systems, and overworked staff.

​​This is an invite-only evening for partners and operators who are done pretending the old model still works.

​​Built by a brilliant team and a CEO who’s lived it

​​Ryan Zahrai, founder of Zed Law, turned a modern SME firm into one of the most AI-enabled practices in Australia in under two years, building the systems, workflows, and operating model that delivered 5x ROI within 3 months of deployment while traditional firms stayed stuck in time.

​​And it worked.

​​Now Ryan is taking everything learned in the trenches and turning it into a tech platform built specifically for SME law firms.

​​Introducing Parachute

​​Veraty is now Parachute, and the focus is not “legal tech” in the usual sense.

​​Parachute is a platform designed to transform how SME law firms actually operate: delivery, pricing, workflows, team leverage, client experience, and margin.

​​This is the early look, and opportunity to join a community of next-generation SME law firms that operate in the value layer, and not in the weeds.

​​Off the back of Australia’s largest pre-seed capital raises for a legal platform, Parachute is going to market with a founding team that knows how to build and scale real products, not slide decks.

​​Meet the founding team

​​You’ll meet the people building Parachute:

• ​​Ryan Zahrai (CEO) – Founding Principal of Zed Law, with deep conviction on how SME law firms can leverage technology to boost revenue, increase margins and deliver quality work

• ​​Dave Berner (CTO) – Co-founder of Kinde, deep technical leadership and scalable product architecture.

• ​​Viv Chan (CPO) – Original founder of Veraty, product strategy meets founder execution.

• ​​Reed Li (CFO) – commercial, solutions-driven, focused on sustainable growth and real-world outcomes.

​​

​​What you’ll get out of it

​​This is not a “demo night”. It’s a straight conversation with people who’ve done the work, early adopters, and a chance to collaborate with a select SME law firm community.

​​We’ll cover:

• ​​what’s actually working in AI for SME firms (and what’s not)

• ​​how modern firms are building margin without burning out teams

• ​​the operational moves that matter: systems, leverage, workflows, pricing

• ​​what Parachute is building, and how it’s designed to make firms faster, sharper, and more profitable

​​

​​The room

​​Hosted at the prestigious Customs House. Good operators only, who are tech-adoptive, and who want to see commercial returns to their firms.
