Before

Cases tracked manually with limited visibility and care

Rundoo is a Series B startup creating software for building material suppliers.

Before Alma, Rundoo worked with a traditional immigration law firm and had very little visibility into each employee's case. Communication was one-way, and some employees raised concerns about the level of care they were getting from their attorneys.

When Andrew Beckman (co-founder and CTO) started looking for an alternative, he wanted a tech-enabled partner that would give him full visibility into every case. Plus, Rundoo needed a legal team that employees actually wanted to work with.

After

Every case approved with complete visibility

Since partnering with Alma, Rundoo manages every immigration case on a centralized platform. The dashboard surfaces case status, deadlines, and action items in one place, so Andrew can check what’s happening without having to follow up.

Employees feel confident working directly with their Alma attorneys, and Andrew gets notifications only when he needs to take action.

Now when the team wants to make a new offer, Andrew asks Alma which visa pathway is best. This strategic partnership gives his team the confidence to hire the best talent.

"It's a relief. Alma is taking care of something I care a lot about but don't have deep expertise in. It frees up my mental bandwidth to focus on other things and trust that it's covered."

— Andrew Beckman (Co-Founder & CTO, Rundoo)

Before Alma

  • Multiple hours per month spent monitoring cases
  • Poor visibility into case status and timelines
  • Employees frustrated by low touch legal support
  • No clarity on hiring feasibility or visa costs
  • Slow, one way communication that required constant outreach

With Alma

  • < 1 hour per week checking Alma during peak periods
  • Real-time visibility through case status dashboards
  • Employees feel heard, supported, and confident in the process
  • Strategic guidance on pathways and upfront cost clarity
  • Fast responses and proactive notifications about each case

Results with Alma

Today, Andrew oversees Rundoo's entire immigration program in under 60 minutes per week, even during peak hiring periods.

Employees get quick responses from their Alma attorneys and feel cared for throughout the process. The team stays focused on building without immigration becoming a recurring concern.

What's changed most is how confidently Rundoo hires. With upfront guidance on what's realistic for each role and a 100% approval rate, the team can pursue strong candidates wherever they're from and trust the immigration path will hold up.

"Alma is a software-enabled immigration law firm, way better than the more manual experience of working with an old-school firm. I would absolutely recommend it."
