Student stories
“I was a paralegal for 4 years going nowhere fast. After Gnixar's Legal Tech program I had three offers in 6 weeks. The curriculum is built around actual tools companies use — not theory. The CLM module alone got me the Freshworks interview.”
Sneha Kapoor
Legal Operations Analyst · Freshworks
“I had no legal background — I came from product management at a startup. The first two modules gave me the legal foundation I needed, and the rest was the tech I already half-knew. Khaitan hired me specifically to lead their Ironclad deployment.”
Rahul Mehta
Contract Technology Manager · Khaitan & Co
“The DPDPA and compliance modules were exactly what the market needed. My Deloitte team was impressed that I could speak to both the regulatory requirements and the technical implementation. That combination is genuinely rare.”
Ananya Singh
Compliance Tech Consultant · Deloitte India
“SpotDraft is a Legal Tech company. When I interviewed, I could demo their own product back to them with improvements. That's only possible because Gnixar trains you in actual market tools, not generic SaaS concepts.”
