TermScout

I’m building a world where contracts close themselves—so businesses can accelerate revenue.

At TermScout, we certify contracts for fairness and risk before they’re sent—no redlines, no delays, just trusted, market-ready agreements that close faster.

This isn’t CLM. It’s not negotiation tech. It’s a new operating system for business trust—a speed layer for go-to-market teams, and the missing link between sales velocity and legal integrity.

AI gives you scale. Certification gives you trust. Together, they grow your business.

Vice President & CEO of CounselLink CLM (formerly Parley Pro) (NYSE: RELX)

Hey there! I’m Olga, and my path here wasn’t exactly linear. If you’re looking for the kind of CEO bio that starts with “I’ve always known I’d…” well, this isn’t it.

Where It All Began

My journey began in Ukraine, where I dreamed of creating beautiful things. As a kid, I thought art school would be my next big step. But life had other plans—I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area at 13, a place I call “Candy Land” for its endless opportunities. Here, I discovered that tech can be beautiful, functional, and a powerful tool for change. That discovery shaped everything I do today.

The Spark

Today, I live and breathe at the intersection of law, technology, and impact. As a CEO, I’ve led a legal tech startup (which I sold to LexisNexis) and advised Fortune 100 companies and leading tech companies on how to innovate safely and law better. I’ve been privileged to work as a General Counsel, guiding companies through IPOs, acquisitions, and complex investigations. And along the way, I’ve taught at Berkeley Law, researched at Stanford Law, prosecuted cases as a San Francisco DA, written books, spoken at top conferences, and advocated for a future where law serves people—not just systems.

Why I’m Here

In a world that sometimes feels complicated and opaque, I believe we can make law simpler, fairer, and more accessible. The rule of law should be like electricity—there to support all of us without being cumbersome or costly.

My Mission

⚖️ Make Law Accessible – Using technology, we can make law a service for all. It doesn’t need to be expensive or intimidating. It can be clear, helpful, and humane.

🖼️ Design for Understanding – Legal concepts shouldn’t be a mystery. Through design and practical visuals, I want to make law a universal language everyone can understand.

💻 Modernize the Law – The legal system shouldn’t run like a clunky, outdated machine. With new tech, we can make it responsive, resilient, and built for the world we live in now.

Join Me on This Journey

Law doesn’t have to be a dated circuit board—it can be as simple and intuitive as flipping a switch. It can be empowering, fair, and even beautiful. If you’re ready to challenge how we law, let’s connect.

Reporting directly to the CEO and VP, my role comprised of lead sourcing, direct c-level contact (CEO, CIO, CTO, CISO), securing web meetings, originating and delivering sales presentations with Milton engineers over Web-ex, producing quotes/closing business and managing pipeline. My time at Milton was immensely rewarding and definitely a comprehensive education in how to navigate a prospect to completion through a complex process of consultation. The efficacy of Inter-departmental communication was paramount to bringing any prospect to fruition. I engaged in regular liaison and careful review with Milton Security's multidisciplinary technical departments to seek their expertise and valuable input, this culture of open communication helped us meet and exceed the client's needs and allay concerns - ensuring each new deployment was 100% successful (in keeping with Milton's impeccable deployment record).

Principia Consulting

I worked alongside two corporate consultant IFAs, one of whom, Pieter van Rooyen, was the founding director of Principia and the other, Niel Gavin, being the Head of Corporate Consulting at Principia. The company was, at the time of joining, one of London‟s top twenty financial services brokerages. Principia had little experience in consulting the target FTSE 100/250 Final Salary pension schemes in the U.K.; my objective was to promote Principia‟s Corporate Consulting Network and Asset Management team and gain access to participate in tenders to ultimately access and control certain Asset Classes on behalf of the Trustees.

Within four months I had secured seventy eight meetings with the Financial Directors and Pension Managers of the top 250 companies in the U.K. including:

British Petroleum, Heinz UK, B.B.C., Eurotunnel, Bechtel, British Airways, BAA, British American Tobacco, Cadbury Schweppes, Kingfisher, Nestle, Mirror Group, Invensys, Man Group, Clifford Chance, Cap Gemini, Tate & Lyle, BAE Systems, Coca Cola Enterprises, T.T. Electronics, Laura Ashley, Selfridges, Comet Group, Reed Elsevier, Kiln, Grosvenor Group, Wellington Underwriting, Unisys, Travis Perkins, British Telecom, Marconi (Telent).

I was responsible, along with Mr. Gavin, for producing comprehensive asset management proposals for the Pension Managers of PLCs and Multinationals. We gained the opportunity to deliver our Tender Proposals to the boardrooms of the most prestigious companies - we reached the 'final two' in many of these processes of elimination and gracefully took second place on many occasions to the leading UK Pension Management companies, we were often retained as independent advisers to advise on the management of Asset Allocation. This activity led us being perceived as a highly regarded and well-respected "top drawer" progressive brokerage/advisory service and ultimately led to Principia being subsumed by Montpelier Europe.
