About Percheron AI
Founded on the principles of efficacy, reliability, and exceptional work ethic — building the AI copilot litigation teams deserve.
Our Story
Percheron AI was founded by Connor McCormick, an AI engineer and solutions architect with nearly a decade of experience building intelligent systems that deliver real business value. From early work at Predibase, where he helped build the company's MVP during its stealth stage, to leading AI infrastructure initiatives at SambaNova Systems, Connor's career has always centered on creating technology that drives impact — not just innovation.
He started Percheron AI after seeing how litigation teams were drowning in fragmented documents, burning billable hours on manual search instead of strategy. The solution was clear: build an AI copilot that grounds every answer in the case record, eliminates hallucinations with mandatory citations, and generates draft-ready work product — so lawyers can focus on winning cases.
The name Percheron reflects the spirit we bring to our product: the intelligence, strength, and tireless work ethic of a true workhorse. We combine deep technical expertise with a relentless focus on the needs of litigation teams.

Our Mission & Values
We're on a mission to give litigation teams an AI copilot they can trust — one that's grounded in the record, transparent in its reasoning, and built for the rigor of legal work.
Efficacy
Every feature we build is measured by its impact on real litigation workflows. We don't ship AI that sounds impressive — we ship AI that cuts case prep time by 60-80% and produces work product lawyers can actually use.
Reliability
In litigation, accuracy isn't optional. Every citation is traceable, every answer is grounded in the record, and every matter is isolated with enterprise-grade security. Our clients trust Percheron because reliability is built into every layer.
Work Ethic
Like our namesake, we're built to do the heavy lifting. We approach every challenge with dedication and persistence — shipping features that solve real problems and iterating relentlessly based on feedback from the lawyers who use our platform.
Why "Percheron"?
The Percheron is a breed of draft horse known for its strength, intelligence, and willingness to work. These magnificent animals were once essential partners in agriculture, industry, and transportation — helping humans accomplish tasks that would be impossible alone.
Today, AI serves a similar role in litigation. When properly built for the domain, it amplifies the capabilities of legal teams — turning months of document review into hours of focused strategy.
Just as the Percheron horse was valued for its reliability and steady temperament, our platform is designed to be dependable, transparent, and built for the rigor of legal work.
