01 / Why this matters

The Pattern

In professional services, hours billed = revenue.

Hours unbilled = waste. The problem: senior people spend 20–40% of their week on admin work that pays nothing — drafting standard documents, onboarding clients, summarising meetings, chasing signatures.

You can't just hire more juniors — they cost more, take 18 months to ramp, and won't ever do the senior work. AI takes the admin off your senior people without diluting your firm's work product. Different lever, better economics.

02 / What we build

What We Build For PS Firms

What we build for professional services firms.

01

Client onboarding

Engagement letter signed → KYC/AML triggered → folders structured → kickoff scheduled → welcome sequence → first deliverable timeline drafted. End-to-end automatic.

02

Document drafting

Engagement letters, advice documents, contract reviews, client emails — all drafted by AI in your firm's tone using your templates.

03

Time entry & billing

AI watches your calendar and email, drafts time entries for your review. Senior people stop forgetting to bill.

04

Client portal chat

Answers status questions ("when's my tax return going to be ready?"), reduces client-call volume by 40%+.

05

Realisation & utilisation dashboard

Daily view of who's billing, who's not, why. Pipeline + advisory across partners.

06

Compliance calendar agent

Flags upcoming deadlines, drafts client reminders. Never miss a filing window.

03 / Compliance

Compliance, Privacy & AI Safety

Compliance, privacy, AI safety — handled.

We understand professional services firms can't experiment with client data. We deploy on your infrastructure where required, sign DPAs without negotiation, and we never use your data to train models. PII handling follows New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 and AU Privacy Act 1988 by default.

For legal: AI document drafting flags every clause that's outside your standard templates for human review. Nothing goes out the door without a partner's signature.

04 / Case study
