H5 Technologies

I was browsing and found this company that works on providing solutions for IR and document analysis for legal departments and other law firms.
They have offices in SF and New York. They also have an office in Mumbai.
The work is interesting and here is a brief description of the company.

Location: SF, NY
Work: IR and Document Retrieval for law firms and legal departments.

I would personally classify this company as NLP, IE/IR company.
Natural Language Processing /Information Retrieval because document analysis would require a bit of NLP.

The work is interesting because it would reduce a lot of manual effort. Let me know if you come across more information about the nature of work.
