AI Assistant Free tier available

AI Assistant Integration

Ask plain-language questions about your projects, invoices, clients, and tasks — and get instant answers from your live firm data.

How it works

The AI Assistant reads your firm's live data — projects, clients, invoices, tasks, and expenses — and uses it as context when answering questions. Only admin and member staff can use the assistant; clients never see it.

Ask in plain language

"Which invoices are overdue?" or "Show me Rahul's active projects"
