Customer Success Specialist San Francisco, USA

The Senior Software Engineer at Canny plays a crucial role in driving our platform's technological advancement.

Starting a new business venture is thrilling, but it also comes with substantial legal vulnerabilities that entrepreneurs often overlook in their excitement. As nimble startups race to capitalize on opportunities, the looming threat of litigation can bring promising progress to a grinding halt.

This is where Canny's legal expertise shines through. Canny works closely with emerging companies to identify potential blind spots and implement preventative measures well before legal trouble comes calling. Consider Canny your startup's first line of defense—detecting risks early and safeguarding your company's vision at every stage of growth.

A New Approach

The prospect of building innovative products and disrupting established industries is undeniably alluring for entrepreneurs. However, the same qualities that allow startups to be fast-moving and bold—small teams, limited resources, moving quickly to market—also expose them to increased litigation risks, including :

• Patent infringement allegations from competitors
• Breaches of contracts signed during rapid scaling periods
• Employee complaints stemming from lack of HR infrastructure
• Unvetted partnerships formed in growth "test it" mindset

Balancing disruptive thinking with sound legal protections is a tricky but mandatory tightrope for startups to walk. This is why it pays to have guidance from specialists like Canny who can pinpoint gaps and reduce exposure proactively.

Mapping Out Prevention Plans

Rather than scrambling to handle legal emergencies reactively, smart founders work preventatively with Canny to safeguard their startups on the front end. Some key areas where Canny layers in litigation buffers include :

“Startups often prioritize explosive growth over defensive legal strategies. But you need to have protective precautions baked into your DNA from day one.”

Lean on Canny’s battle-tested attorneys to provide the protective foundation you need to stay legally sound from launch and beyond. They’ll work closely with your leadership team to neutralize threats before they become sinkholes swallowing your resources, energy and vision for the future.
