SentientJD.com was created by Matt Romney, a Harvard Law trained executive who believes that in the high-stakes world of technology, legal should be an accelerator, not a handbrake. Based in Salt Lake City, Matt brings over two decades of experience forged in the trenches with everyone from garage-stage startups to global giants.

Matt’s expertise spans the full lifecycle of a company—from the first cap table split to the final exit. He understands the “economic engine” of venture-backed growth. But he also knows that some of today’s biggest risks live in the code. He works at the intersection of product and policy, helping engineering teams navigate the complex terrain of SaaS licensing, data privacy, and the rapidly evolving landscape of AI regulatory strategy.

SentientJD.com is intended to give founders and technology innovators the confidence navigate legal inflection points as they innovate and to turn compliance into a competitive edge.
