Amit was a new addition to LawPivot, so the impact that he made when he joined is quite apparent.

Amit added a sense of science & data-driven analytics to our product decision-making that I wished we had had since the birth of LawPivot. It's easy to admire his passion for creating products, but also the care with which he takes to cultivate an idea, execute it, and tweak it to get it just right.

Amit also brought a lot of business skills & mature business concepts to a young start-up. After he joined, we refined the ways that we would approach tackling product decisions, and evolved our team dynamic - all for the better.

Amit is a knowledgeable and savvy marketing professional. While working with him, I was very impressed with his search engine optimization skills in optimizing our company website and managing our online marketing campaigns. In addition, he spearheaded the development of many of our website feature, essentially taking on the role as a product manager in many cases. He is a great product manager who is able to drive the product development process by being methodical and being very easy to work with. Amit is a great asset to the team.
