Law firms aren’t losing time—they’re leaking revenue.

Every week, billable hours vanish as lawyers and staff slog through PDFs, searching for clauses, terms, and deadlines. It’s not legal work—it’s document scavenging.

A LexisNexis survey found that new associates spend 14.5 hours a week—31% of their time—on legal research. That’s days of billable time spent searching for information firms already have.

Even for support staff, the cost adds up fast. Imagine a paralegal spending just 3 hours a week manually digging through docs. At $300/hour, that’s $900 in lost revenue—every single week.

An AI document assistant fixes this.

Instead of flipping pages or guessing keywords, your team just asks:
“What’s the renewal clause in the latest MSA?”
“Which vendor contracts expire this quarter?”
And the assistant answers—pulled directly from your contract archive—in seconds.

It’s fast to set up and surprisingly affordable.
Indexing a 100,000-page corpus? About five dollars, one time.
Monthly infrastructure? Around forty dollars, completely hands-off.
Wiring it into your workflow takes 20 to 25 hours; at $40/hour, that’s a one-time $800 to $1,000. After that, it just runs.

The entire system pays for itself before your next Monday morning staff meeting.

Worried about security? Don’t be. You get on-prem or SOC-2 cloud options—your privileged docs stay protected.
