- Move follows 3Rive Technologies becoming official Anthropic partner in Claude Partner Network
3Rive Technologies, the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-first legal technology service provider, has announced it has become an official partner in Anthropic’s Claude Partner Network, the global ecosystem of firms trained and vetted to deploy Claude, Anthropic’s family of AI models, inside client organisations.
Headquartered in Australia, with its engineering and AI development centre in Sri Lanka, a regional office in Dubai and a UK presence to follow, 3Rive serves law firms and legal businesses across the UK and Australian markets. The firm believes it is among the first legal-technology pure-play service providers globally to join the network.
3Rive Technologies Founder and CEO Chuck Silva said: “We set out to build something different: a legal technology firm that is AI-first from the ground up, not one retrofitting AI onto an old delivery model. Our ambition is to be the best legal technology service provider in the APAC, and in time, the biggest. This partnership is the foundation. Just as importantly, we want to change how technology itself gets delivered, and to challenge every engineer, every technologist in our industry to become AI-first in how they think and build. The firms and the people who make that shift now will define the next decade of legal services.”
3Rive is the firm behind Cognitive Outsourcing, a UK-trademarked gain-share managed services model in which 3Rive takes operational ownership of a client’s back-office function and funds its AI-driven redesign across a multi-year term, with the client retaining the AI assets. The same AI-first principle runs through 3Rive’s own operations: Claude is embedded across the firm’s engineering, delivery, marketing, and back-office functions. The firm builds the way it advises its clients to build.
Beyond client delivery, 3Rive intends to play an active role in growing the Claude builder ecosystem in Sri Lanka, home to its engineering and AI development centre. The firm will host a series of public Claude sessions in Colombo in the coming months, including open workshops, live build demonstrations, and meetups, and is applying to Anthropic’s Claude Community Ambassadors program to help lead the local builder community.
“If we want an AI-first generation of engineers, someone has to open the doors and show the work. We intend to be that firm, and we intend Sri Lanka to be on the map of serious AI engineering talent,” Silva added.
