Specific Use Cases
Document Analysis & Review
Typical Timeline: 4-6 weeks
The Problem
Associates spend 60% of time on document review—expensive talent doing repetitive work.
Our Solution
AI extracts key information, flags issues, and summarises documents. Humans review exceptions.
Expected Outcome
Document review time reduced 60%. Associates focus on analysis and client work.
Research Automation
Typical Timeline: 6-8 weeks
The Problem
Research takes hours. Results vary by who does it. Knowledge does not accumulate.
Our Solution
AI searches internal knowledge bases, external sources, and prior work to generate research briefs.
Expected Outcome
Research time cut 50%. Consistent quality. Institutional knowledge captured.
Client Communication
Typical Timeline: 4-6 weeks
The Problem
Partners lose billable hours to routine client updates. Response times frustrate clients.
Our Solution
AI drafts status updates, answers routine questions, and flags urgent matters for human attention.
Expected Outcome
Routine communication automated. Partners reclaim 5+ hours weekly. Clients get faster responses.
Knowledge Management
Typical Timeline: 8-10 weeks
The Problem
Expertise lives in people's heads. When they leave, knowledge leaves. Reinventing wheels is common.
Our Solution
AI indexes all work product, extracts patterns, and surfaces relevant precedents for new matters.
Expected Outcome
Past work becomes searchable. Onboarding accelerates. Quality improves from reuse.
The Economics of AI in Professional Services
The leverage equation: A senior associate at €150/hour spending 20 hours on document review costs €3,000. AI can do 80% of that work, leaving 4 hours of human review. That's €600 + AI costs—a net savings of €2,000+ per project.
The capacity equation: Partners who reclaim 5 hours weekly from routine communication can take on more clients or provide deeper service to existing ones. That's 250+ hours annually per partner.
Client Confidentiality, Protected
We understand attorney-client privilege, audit confidentiality, and the trust your clients place in you. Our AI solutions can run entirely within your infrastructure—no client data ever leaves your systems.

Common questions
Questions, answered
What does AI for professional services cost?
We start with a 5-day Quick Win Sprint from €5,000 on one workflow—document review or drafting, for example—before a larger commitment. Full implementations typically deliver around 30% cost reduction on the automated process and 3.7x ROI in the first year.
How fast can it be in use?
Under 90 days to a production result, with a usable output from the 5-day sprint. We build on your own documents and matters, so what you test reflects your actual work rather than a generic demo.
How do you handle GDPR, the EU AI Act, and client confidentiality?
Compliance and confidentiality are built in. Implementations are GDPR-aware by design and prepared for EU AI Act obligations ahead of the deadlines. Client data stays in the EU, and for privileged or sensitive matters we deploy fully on-premise so nothing leaves your infrastructure.
Will it work with our practice management and document systems?
Yes. We integrate with your document management, practice management, and email tools rather than replacing them—no rip-and-replace. The AI works with the files and matters already in your systems.
Is this a fit for our firm?
It pays off fastest where fee-earners lose hours to repetitive review, research, or drafting that AI can accelerate while people keep sign-off. If your work is mostly bespoke judgement with little repetition, we'll tell you where AI adds value and where it doesn't.
