Former DOJ Antitrust Chief Jonathan Kanter Launches AI Startup FluxCap to Combat Monopolies
Jonathan Kanter, former head of the DOJ's Antitrust Division, has launched FluxCap, a legal tech startup designed to assist plaintiffs in antitrust litigation. Alongside former acting chief Doha Mekki, Kanter aims to use artificial intelligence as a 'force multiplier' to help smaller legal teams compete against well-resourced Big Tech companies. The platform utilizes proprietary technology and large language models to conduct deep legal research, identify holes in attorney logic, and sift through massive discovery datasets for evidence of anticompetitive behavior. By automating complex analysis, FluxCap intends to provide the equivalent manpower of over 20 people working around the clock. FluxCap has already secured Kressin Powers as an early customer and is currently in discussions with both public and private enforcement agencies. While initially focused on antitrust, the company plans to expand its AI-driven legal tools into other practice areas.
