Anyone pursuing a work or immigrant visa will tell you about the difficulties of lottery systems, exorbitant fees, and endless paperwork. \n\nAt 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.\n\n**✍️ The Solution** \n\nParley 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.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=81798&key=user_uploads/410497/9ed0f8d6-b11f-48a8-acc1-3a6d50fb74df)\n\n**Asks:** \n\n* Want to use the product? **Book a demo **[**here**](https://calendly.com/philip-parley/15min)**.**\n* **Been through a visa process?** Reach out to us and tell us about your journey at [founders@parley.so](mailto:founders@parley.so) - we’d love to talk!\n* **Like what we’re building?** Share this post!
