Company profile

researched Aug 2026

CaseBlink is a New York City-based artificial intelligence software company serving immigration law. Its platform lets attorneys and law firms prepare cases end to end: users upload client documents to a portal where AI reads and interprets the content, performs additional case-specific research, and drafts complex legal briefs and support letters. The stated aim is to compress preparation work that traditionally takes many hours of attorney time.

The product began with the National Interest Waiver (NIW) green card petition, described by the founders as one of the most complex case types to prepare, and subsequently expanded to other employment-based immigration filings, concentrating on high-skilled worker applications that are writing-intensive and document-heavy. Planned expansion areas include family-based visas, asylum work, waivers, and responses to Requests for Evidence.

Founding story

Khalil Zlaoui, the primary founder and CEO, was working at Google and going through his own U.S. immigration process, pursuing a National Interest Waiver green card. The petition took over three months to prepare with his attorney, reflecting the 40-60 hours of attorney work such filings typically require. Concluding that much of the work could be automated with recently developed AI technologies, he built a prototype and contacted Tina Zedginidze, then a practicing business immigration attorney, on LinkedIn. She initially planned to join as an advisor but became a co-founder; John Langhauser is also named as a co-founder.

Business model

CaseBlink sells AI case-preparation software to immigration attorneys and law firms as a platform on which cases are prepared from start to finish.

Traction

The company raised $2 million in a preliminary seed round announced in March 2025 and completed the four-month Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator program beginning January 2024.

Latest developments

Following its March 2025 seed announcement, the company said it intends to expand coverage to all areas of immigration, including family-based visas, asylum matters, waivers, and Requests for Evidence responses.
