Blue Voice, an app providing real-time legal and policy guidance to police officers, has raised $6 million in seed funding led by SignalFire and Las Olas VC. The startup positions itself as 'Harvey for police officers,' referencing the AI legal assistant.

Blue Voice delivers instant legal and policy guidance to law enforcement officers through a mobile application. The platform aims to help officers navigate complex legal requirements and departmental policies during operations. The startup was founded by a Harvard Law School dropout who identified a gap in officer training and real-time decision support. The app's model mirrors Harvey, an AI legal research tool designed for law professionals, but targets the unique needs of police departments. SignalFire and Las Olas VC led the seed round, signaling investor confidence in legal technology for public safety sectors. The funding will support product development and market expansion as Blue Voice seeks to deploy across police departments. The tool addresses growing demand for technology that reduces legal liability while improving officer decision-making in the field.
