"The idea is to assist immigrants in the U.S. - and eventually in other countries - understand the law, what visas they may be eligible for and to connect with immigration attorneys, making the whole process cheaper and faster. "I think the more we make the technology accessible, I think people will be empowered to try and fill their own forms and understand what their options are and that they will be able to use lawyers for just the review process,""
"Obateru, who is from Nigeria, recalled how he had to navigate the U.S. immigration system after he finished his studies in the country. Since then, he got an H1-B visa, a common visa for tech workers, and then a permanent residency green card. That inspired him to launch JustiGuide to help fellow immigrants. "Immigrants can come in and basically speak in their native tongue and understand what their immigration journey can be," he said."
U.S. immigration processes are complex, costly, and difficult for immigrants to navigate. JustiGuide provides an AI-powered portal that helps immigrants identify eligible visas, understand legal options in multiple languages, and connect with immigration attorneys. The platform includes an AI legal research assistant, a lawyer-immigrant pairing system, and automated form-filling and document compilation tools to speed case preparation and reduce paralegal workload. Target customers include startup founders hiring immigrant workers, H1-B holders seeking alternatives, international students starting businesses, and law firms; the platform currently has 47,000 users and may be licensed by government institutions.
