The Problem

Immigration Services are Fragmented, Expensive, and Inaccessible

The immigration services industry is fragmented, expensive, and inaccessible. Traditional legal services cost $3K-$15K per case and take weeks. 73% of immigrants cite cost as their primary barrier. Over 280M international migrants lack access to affordable, reliable guidance. Technology can address these inefficiencies.
