AI for law firms

Ask your matters, timesheets, and billing.

Overdue AR, matter-budget tracking, and unbilled time — asked in plain English.

Your practice-management system already records every matter, hour, and invoice. Knodox reads it read-only and turns it into permission-aware answers — scoped to each practice group and office, with client identity confidential for roles without clearance, and every figure traced to a real row.

For managing partners, practice leads, billing, and finance.

The oversight problem

Revenue leaks in the gaps between systems.

Matters, hours, and invoices live in a practice-management system nobody wants to query by hand. The questions that protect the firm's revenue and its clients go unasked.

AR ages quietly

Which invoices are overdue, and by how much? Aging reports are a monthly ritual — not an answer you can get the moment a partner asks.

Matters drift over budget

By the time a matter's billed hours blow past its budget, the write-down conversation is already lost. You need to see the burn while there's still room to act.

Confidentiality makes AI risky

Client identity and privileged detail can't leak across practice groups or offices. UI-level access control isn't enough for a firm.

Ask it like this

The questions your firm already asks — answered from your data.

Example answers on a representative multi-office firm dataset. Every figure is derived from the underlying matter, timesheet, and invoice rows and checked back against the source before it's shown.

1

"Which invoices are overdue, and by how much?"

One invoice is past due in this office: $16,000 on the Fontaine wrongful-termination matter, 20+ days overdue — with the matter, client, and issue date attached, so it's ready to chase, not just count.

"Show me our matters and time."

Same question. Different roles. Different views — enforced at the data layer:

Litigation associate — own practicelitigation matters only
Corporate partner — own practicecorporate matters only
Billing manager — the moneyall invoices & time · privilege masked
And each office is isolated: a Downtown user sees zero Westside or North Shore matters.

"Which matters are tracking over budget?"

The Fontaine matter is at 80% of its $60,000 budget with discovery still ongoing — the one to watch. Knodox ranks each active matter by billed-vs-budget so partners see the burn while there's still room to act.

Why firms trust it

Built for privilege and precision.

The same three guarantees that run across all of Knodox — applied to legal data.

Permission-aware by design

Roles map from your identity provider; matters are scoped by practice group and every query by office. Client identity and privileged detail are masked before the model reads a row for roles without clearance.

Verified, never invented

Billed hours, budgets, and AR are checked back against the source. If a figure can't be traced to a real row, it's flagged — not shown. No invented balances.

Answers that become dashboards

Pin any answer — overdue AR, matter burn, unbilled WIP — into a living dashboard that refreshes against your data, scoped to each viewer's role.

Two ways to consume it

Use Knodox's app — or embed it in yours.

Point your teams at Knodox's Ask interface, or keep your own systems and call Knodox's permission-aware retrieval API. Either way, the same practice-group and office rules apply per user.

Native Ask UI

Attorneys and staff log in and ask directly. Connect a read-only source, map roles, and go.

Headless / embedded

Keep your own intranet or PMS and call the retrieval API with the end-user's identity on every request. Knodox mints a scoped token and returns only what they're allowed to see.

Confidentiality stays intact

Client names and privileged detail are masked before the model reads them — unless the caller's role is explicitly cleared.

See it on your own matter data.

Thirty minutes. We connect a read-only copy of one of your sources, set up two roles, and let you ask your first real question. No demo data, no slideware.
