London, United Kingdom – 23 July 2024 – WeWork, a leading global flexible space provider, today announced that Robin AI, a leader in legal AI, is expanding its footprint to 450 Park in New York and 71 Robinson Road in Singapore to complement its existing space at 10 Devonshire Square in London. Totalling 13,000 sq ft, this move not only reaffirms the company’s commitment to leveraging flexible real estate solutions to scale its business internationally, but underscores its dedication to providing employees with an exceptional office experience conducive to delivering their best work.
Founded in 2019 by Richard Robinson and James Clough, Robin AI provides legal AI for businesses, partnering with Anthropic and AWS to give businesses a competitive edge. The company’s legal AI assistant cuts the time needed to review contracts by 90%, allowing businesses’ legal teams to move faster, save money and ultimately invest their time more strategically.
To support its mission and growth, Robin AI has adopted a hybrid work model that empowers employees to determine their own work schedule, based on individual preferences and tasks that need to be completed that day. The company’s expanding footprint across WeWorks in London, New York and Singapore – situated in the Central Business District of all three cities – provides a consistent office experience for its hybrid workforce. Each location offers dynamic and expertly designed space ideal for productive, collaborative and heads-down work, and will feature customized branding to bolster company culture.
Richard Robinson, founder and CEO of Robin AI says “At Robin AI, we need adaptable, dynamic spaces for our rapid expansion, and to serve as vibrant hubs where our team can collaborate, innovate, and feel energized about their work. WeWork’s global portfolio allows us to swiftly establish new headquarters in different cities within a matter of weeks, and their flexible solutions allow us to fine-tune our workplace strategy, and confidently move forward with our growth plans with ease.”
Claudio Hidalgo, COO, WeWork says “We are delighted to help facilitate Robin AI’s growth as it becomes one of the global leaders in legal AI . The company’s winning combination of WeWork space in London, New York and Singapore is not only a signal of their international success, but reaffirms WeWork’s position as the partner of choice for growing organizations – particularly in the AI industry – who are recognizing the value of turnkey, scalable space solutions to power their workplace strategies, effortlessly grow their presence in new markets as well as attract top talent. At WeWork, we continue to see increasing appetite from businesses looking to future-proof their real estate commitments and put their right foot forward in this new era of hybrid work.”
Starting with a six-person office at WeWork No 1 Poultry in London, Robin AI has expanded its footprint with several office moves in the city, almost doubling its footprint every time. The company now boasts a full floor space at WeWork 10 Devonshire Square, which blends dynamic and thoughtful design to meet the evolving criteria of the modern office.
