About the company
Alecto’s mission is to make legal services accessible to everyone on the planet.
We believe the quality of service in the legal profession is woefully inadequate. It delivers bad value for money, frustrates the people it exists to serve, and lacks basic accountability.
The societal impact of making legal services accessible, understandable, and affordable to every person will be enormous. We aim to be the business that makes this happen.
Alecto was founded in autumn 2025 by Will Rice. Will previously founded Gen H, an FCA-regulated fintech that has become one of the UK’s leading mortgage lenders for first-time buyers. At Gen H, Will raised £50 million in equity from leading venture investors and over £5 billion in asset financing.
Prior to Gen H, Will lived in Moscow and ran a hedge fund. He has a starred first-class degree from Cambridge University, where he studied Russian and Arabic.
