Parley makes immigration simple by helping immigration attorneys draft visa applications without the headache. We built the the O-1A Visa Writer, which integrates into the most common workflows used by immigration firms. Our tool can generate an O-1A petition from a client's evidence, helping simplify the complex visa application that brings some of the world's best talent to the U.S.

Hi everyone, we’re Jackson, Philip, and Ian, and we’re the co-founders of Parley.
📚 The Problem
It’s no secret that the immigration system in the U.S. is broken. Anyone pursuing a work or immigrant visa will tell you about the difficulties of lottery systems, exorbitant fees, and endless paperwork.
At Parley, we believe an important piece to fixing this process is automating work for immigration firms. For some visa types, a lawyer or legal writer spends several days writing a single application, learning about the most complex and technical professions, collating hundreds of pages of evidence, and synthesizing it all into a cohesive petition. Meanwhile, an applicant eagerly waits for their opportunity. By helping lawyers work better on a daily basis, we hope to accelerate Parley’s speed to impact — reducing the complexity of immigration.
✍️ The Solution
Parley makes immigration processes easier. Our first product, the O-1A Writer, helps immigration attorneys speed write a petition while keeping them in the loop. As a lawyer does the critical thinking in specifying what argument they want to make, our writer dynamically pulls content from an applicant's evidence, fits that material to the context of the application, and automatically drafts a petition for review. We do this all directly in Microsoft Word — where most attorneys spend their time writing. We’re quickly expanding support for more visa types like the H-1B, TN, EB-1, EB-2 NIW, L-1, and more.
