 About Catalyst

A pioneer in cloud-based litigation technology, Catalyst provides global corporations and their counsel with secure, hosted document repositories to manage discovery, regulatory inquiries and other complex legal matters. Clients use Insight, our "Big Discovery" platform, and Insight Predict, our advanced technology assisted review engine, to reduce discovery costs and associated risks.

In the bargain, they gain greater control and predictability over the discovery process and greater visibility across all their legal matters. The Catalyst team has been building secure, e-discovery cloud software for over 15 years. We got our start in Denver as part of a national law firm, but spun out in 2000 to take on the world. Since then we have grown from six to over a hundred and sixty, with offices in Denver and Tokyo and employees spread across the world. We manage four data centers, three here, one in Tokyo, and also have a team in Bangalore to help with development and operations.

Catalyst turned profitable and cash-flow positive in 2002 and has won numerous awards for continued growth and our innovative software. We serve many of the largest companies, insurers and law firms in the world but can't always mention their names. We are backed by FTV Capital, who joined a year ago to help us take the company to the proverbial next level.

Last but not least, you will be joining a well-respected and highly stable company that has always steered its own course in a volatile, "me too" industry. We have weathered two major recessions but remained profitable through them. We take care of our people who reward us with their loyalty and dedication.
