Sound Familiar?
The associate who can’t find what the firm already knows.
A client inquiry arrives, and a second-year associate spends half a day researching it. Meanwhile, a senior associate from another practice group answered the same question last year, filed it properly, and tagged it correctly. No one knows about this because there’s no way to search past work by concept, only by filename. The firm’s collective output is organized but not easily searchable. Lawyers and paralegals lose roughly 4.3 hours a week searching for and recreating documents, costing firms about $9,071 per lawyer per year.
What changes: Associates ask a question and get a synthesized answer with citations to the firm’s own documents. In minutes, not hours.
Solved by: Search → privileged document search across iManage and NetDocuments, on-prem
The proposal assembled from scratch every time.
When an RFP (Request for Proposal) arrives, someone in the Business Development (BD) team emails the partners to inquire about relevant experience. Responses come in gradually over several days, and they’re often incomplete. The firm’s billing system accurately tracks which matters were won, which clients have expanded, and which practice areas effectively cross-sell. That data never makes it into the proposal process. Law firms report spending an average of 19.6 to 25 non-billable hours on each RFP response. And lateral partners typically take 18 to 24 months to feel integrated, which limits their ability to pitch the firm’s full capabilities from day one.
What changes: The firm’s complete relevant experience surfaces in minutes. Laterals respond to RFPs confidently from week one.

The 9 pm time entry marathon.
After a long day, an attorney sits down to review their work. They wonder whether that research took 1.5 hours or 2. They try to recall which matter the phone call was billed to. Recording time at the end of the day costs roughly 10 to 15 percent of billable hours; waiting 24 hours costs about 25 percent; waiting a week can cost 50 percent or more. And according to Clio’s Legal Trends Report, the average lawyer records just 2.9 hours of an 8-hour day for billable work. This isn’t due to working less; rather, a portion of their time slips their memory, is conservatively rounded, or never gets recorded at all.
What changes: The system tracks document activity, email sends, calendar events, and application usage to automatically draft time entries. Attorneys review and approve rather than reconstruct from memory. Revenue no longer leaks through the cracks.

The partner meeting that runs on contested numbers.
Utilization, realization, matter profitability, origination credits. Someone in finance spends days extracting data from the billing system, reconciling it with trust accounting, and formatting it in Excel. Half the partner meeting is spent debating whether the numbers are accurate, and the other half arguing over who gets credit for which client. By the time a decision is reached, the data is already outdated.
What changes: Financial reports are generated automatically. Partners come in with trusted numbers and spend the meeting making decisions instead of arguing about inputs.
Solved by: Insights → realization, origination credit, and practice-group profitability · Foundation → unifies billing, accounting, DMS, and CRM
What We Build
What We Build for Firms Like Yours
Knowledge that's findable.
All briefs, memos, contracts, and research notes created by your firm are searchable by concept, not just by keyword. For instance, if an associate asks about earnout provisions in healthcare M&A, they receive a detailed answer with references to the firm's documents. Similarly, they can inquire about precedents from the Johnson non-compete dispute or request all lease agreements for healthcare clients from the last two years. This turns the firm's institutional memory into a strategic advantage, rather than just a filing system.
Solved by: Search → privilege-aware search across iManage and NetDocuments, on-prem option
Proposals that build themselves.
Link your billing history to the proposal process. When a Request for Proposal (RFP) comes in, the system gathers all relevant matters, attorneys, and outcomes into a draft response. It's formatted and ready for review. This eliminates the need to email partners and hope for a timely response before the deadline.
Solved by: Agents → Pitch Prep Agent · Insights → origination credit and win-rate intelligence
Revenue that stops leaking.
The system watches what your attorneys actually do: documents opened, emails sent, research sessions, and calendar events. It drafts time entries in the background, matched to the right matter. Attorneys review and approve at the end of the day instead of reconstructing hours from memory. The billable time they've already worked is starting to show up on invoices.
Solved by: Agents → Time Entry Agent drafts from your actual activity, attorney approves
Numbers partners trust.
Automated financial reporting that pulls directly from your billing and accounting systems. Utilization, realization, profitability, origination. Updated continuously and formatted for partner review. The meeting begins with decisions, not data reconciliation.
Solved by: Insights → automated realization, profitability, and origination reporting · Foundation → unified billing, accounting, and DMS data

What Your Firm Is Losing
A law firm with 40 attorneys incurs an annual loss of approximately $360,000 due to inaccessible knowledge. This figure excludes the costs associated with proposals created from scratch, revenue lost due to inaccurate time entries, and partner meetings that waste hours debating numbers rather than making decisions. Overall, these inefficiencies result in a total friction cost exceeding $500,000 per year.
Databender estimate. Built from the per-lawyer figures above: IDC document-management waste, time-entry leakage, and RFP hours. Your numbers will vary; see the calculator below.
The fix costs less than one associate's salary. It pays for itself before the next partner meeting.
