Zoellner will lead product strategy and engineering as Lineal expands its AI-enabled platform capabilities and scales its technology-driven service delivery worldwide.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Zoellner brings more than 20 years of experience building and scaling AI-powered legal and technology platforms. Most recently, he served as EVP of Software at CS DISCO, joining as the first non-founder executive when the company had less than $1 million in revenue. Over seven years, he built the product, design, and engineering functions that grew DISCO to more than $135 million in annual revenue and a successful 2021 IPO.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Before DISCO, Zoellner led product and technology organizations at Spredfast (acquired by Vista Equity) and StoredIQ (acquired by IBM). At StoredIQ, his team developed a turnkey eDiscovery platform addressing information management and early case assessment, shipping one of the industry\u2019s first integrated collection and data retention appliances.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cKeith built one of the most successful legal technology products in the market, and he did it by focusing on what actually works for legal teams,\u201d said Major Baisden, CEO of Lineal. \u201cWe\u2019re not interested in AI for AI\u2019s sake. We\u2019re focused on delivering measurable workflow improvements and cost visibility for our clients. Keith\u2019s track record of taking products from concept through scale, combined with his specific eDiscovery technology background, makes this the right hire at the right time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Zoellner\u2019s approach centers on building cross-functional autonomous teams that can move quickly while maintaining product quality. At DISCO, he pioneered AI-driven review capabilities that became industry standards. At StoredIQ, he led development of data management tools that addressed compliance and early-stage discovery challenges years before they became mainstream.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cMost legal technology companies are either selling software or selling services. Lineal is doing something different by combining both with deep operational expertise,\u201d said Zoellner. \u201cThat integration is hard to execute, but when done right, it delivers outcomes software alone can\u2019t match. I\u2019m excited to help scale platform capabilities that power Lineal\u2019s service delivery and give clients the workflow efficiency and cost transparency they\u2019re not getting elsewhere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In addition to his technology leadership roles, Zoellner also served as an operational advisor with Live Oak Ventures, an Austin-based venture capital firm, where he guided portfolio companies on AI product strategy and hosted a podcast on AI implementation for early-stage companies.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>About Lineal<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=tzQ-cWLa0DEvHtiij9sD1TkN-g00nODxx9oahsNXKQjllpk6YmpwsJKx-PNbAiG_EhPN_knR1e8n_3NFcqsWqA==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Lineal\">Lineal<\/a> is an innovative eDiscovery and legal technology solutions company that empowers law firms and corporations with modern data management and review strategies.
