Tim Dorris, Chief Revenue Officer, Wordsmith AI
Dorris joins from Stensul, where she was CRO for a marketing creation platform that helps enterprise teams streamline campaign workflows. His track record scaling B2B software companies positions him to drive Wordsmith’s next chapter as in-house legal teams increasingly embrace AI to reclaim time from repetitive tasks.
Ross McNairn, CEO of Wordsmith AI, said: “Tim’s appointment is a sign of our ambition as we begin to aggressively expand Wordsmith.” “Tim is a great operator who knows how to build a world-class enterprise sales operation.”
The hire comes amid an accelerating demand for AI to eliminate the drudgery of document creation and free up legal teams’ time to focus on strategic work. Wordsmith’s platform automates document analysis and contract reviews that traditionally require hours of work for legal professionals.
“The legal field is perfect for generative and agentic AI, and it’s a huge market,” said Tim Doris. “What attracted me to Wordsmith was the pace of product development and how closely it aligns with customer values. In a fast-moving market, speed is an advantage, and I don’t see anyone moving at Wordsmith’s pace. More importantly, the market is moving from asking whether AI makes sense to planning when and how to deploy AI. That’s when you want to scale. ”
Dorris will lead all revenue functions, including sales, customer success and business development, as Wordsmith competes in a rapidly expanding market alongside players such as Legora and Harvey.
Investment in the legal AI space is surging as companies realize the potential of technology to transform workflows. Wordsmith’s focus on in-house teams targets underserved populations that have traditionally relied on manual processes for day-to-day legal work.
