    Hi HN! I'm Darby, one of the founders of Clerky (https://www.clerky.com). We build software to help startups and their attorneys get legal paperwork done.

While I’ve previously posted about launching our initial tech startup card (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17418813), the decision to launch Life Sciences was much different in that we already had two…
