Thomas Officer

Software designer + developer

Thomas Officer Headshot

Welcome, I'm Thomas "Toma". I build software products remotely from Lebanon, NH. I have over 8 years experience in starting companies and doing everything required to get a product from zero to 1.

In 2016, I participated in the Blue Ridge Labs @ Robin Hood tech incubator. I met my cofounders and launched Community.lawyer, a lawyer referral marketplace. Community.lawyer became the preferred SaaS for bar associations across the United States, processing tens of thousands of legal assistance requests per month.

By the end of 2017, my cofounders and I launched Afterpattern, a no-code document automation builder for lawyers. Our goal was to help productize legal services to make them more affordable.

Afterpattern was acquired by NetDocuments in 2021. I joined NetDocuments as a product designer and it was here that I was when ChatGPT came out. That moment reminded me of when I was a young lawyer and I met my first startup; instant recognition that is what I should be working on.

I'm currently working on Echo, a note-taking app that's been designed from the ground up for AI.
