Why firms choose us

Software that has already done the work.

You are not buying a slide deck. These modules exist, run, and have been recorded end to end, so you can judge them before you spend anything.

Proven, not promised

A live reference platform runs the nine modules today, with narrated walkthroughs for every role. Watch it work before you talk to us.

See it working

Your law, your advocates

Statutory content is configured with your own advocates and verified by them, and nothing leaves the firm until an advocate authorises it.

For South African firms

Built fast, with advanced technology

We use Artificial Intelligence-assisted engineering to turn a specification into working software in short iterations, for a reasonable budget.

How we build

Ways to buy

Run it our way, or run it your way.

Take the modules exactly as they are, or have them evolved. Either can be hosted by us or deployed on your own servers.

We host it

Software as a service

A dedicated, isolated instance for your firm. We run, patch, back up and monitor it. You log in.

  • Live in the shortest time
  • Encrypted nightly backups
  • Predictable monthly cost
You host it

On your own servers

Delivered as a container you run on your infrastructure. Client data never leaves your control.

  • Full data sovereignty
  • We install, train and support
  • Move from SaaS later, same software
Made for you

Evolved and bespoke

Modules adapted to how your firm works, or something new built to your specification and deployed either way.

  • Written specification first
  • Working software every iteration
  • Reuses a proven foundation

How we build

From first conversation to running software.

A short, visible process, so you always know what is being built and what it will cost before we write a line of code.

  1. Conversation

    We learn how your firm works and what is slowing it down. No obligation.

  2. Specification

    We write down exactly what will be built, and quote a fixed scope against it.

  3. Build, in iterations

    Short cycles with software you can click through early, so surprises surface early.

  4. Prove, then run

    Your advocates verify the rules and workflows. Then we deploy and support it.

Built and running

Watch a matter go from intake to authorised.

The reference platform is recorded end to end on demo data, once for each role: public, paralegal, advocate and administrator.

  • Only an advocate can authorise a document
  • Every view and change is logged against a named person
  • Encrypted nightly backups, with an automatic restore test
