That's very kind -- let's hope the legal profession feels the same way. It's certainly inspired by VS code. It's using egui (https://github.com/emilk/egui) under the hood. Big hats off to Emil Ernerfeldt and the team at rerun (https://app.rerun.io/) for the incredible work on a great immediate mode GUI library.
I did send it to a lawyer I'm friends with, their hesitation comes from putting anything confidential on "unknown software" so I think you should really focus on highlighting any kind of metrics you keep, and anything that could be fully relevant to a legal professional. I also recommend, I think you mentioned AI is possible, making that opt-in only.
Yes that battle is won by getting the IT/infosec team's approval for the desktop application. Lawyers really don't like the WASM version because it seems like you're uploading docs to some server (you aren't).
Thanks a ton for the feedback!
