LegalPad

Legalpad (Legalpad Inc, Seattle) was a startup-focused US work-visa and immigration company founded by Todd Heine and Sara Itucas, who first began processing visas together at Teleborder (Y Combinator 2013) and reunited in Techstars Seattle in 2017. Legalpad paired software with staff immigration attorneys to file O-1, H-1B, L-1, TN, E-1/E-2, E-3 and B-1 work visas plus EB-1A, EB-1B, EB-1C, EB-2 and EB-2 NIW employment-based green cards, and said it had helped 500+ companies at roughly one-third the typical processing time. It raised a $2M seed in 2018 and a $10M Series A in 2020 before being acquired by Deel in 2022, after which it operated as "Legalpad by Deel" inside Deel Immigration. The legalpad.io web presence was retired after 2024 and the business now lives on as Deel Immigration. Legalpad never published a public API, developer portal, documentation, SDK or other developer surface, so there is no API artifact to enrich.

LegalPad is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Legal, Immigration, Work Visas, and Legal Services.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/legalpad: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
