Legal & professional services — Smarterapps Ai
Legal & Professional Services AI Apps
Matter, document and client apps with AI that drafts, summarises and routes work — so Australian firms spend more time advising and less on admin.
What we build
Professional software clients trust.
Law firms, accountants and consultancies drown in documents and email. We build secure apps that automate the routine and keep a clear audit trail.
01 — Clients
Secure iOS, Android and web portals for matter status, document exchange, e-signing and messaging.
02 — Documents
AI that extracts, summarises and compares contracts, briefs and correspondence for lawyer review.
03 — Drafting
Drafting Assistants
Assistants grounded in your precedents and playbooks that prepare first drafts for human editing.
04 — Intake
Intake & Triage
Guided enquiry flows that capture the right facts first and route matters to the right team.
05 — Knowledge
Knowledge & Search
Retrieval over internal know-how so practitioners get cited answers in seconds.
06 — Integration
Practice System Integration
Connect practice management, DMS, billing and CRM through secure APIs.
The AI slant
AI with professional responsibility front of mind.
Humans remain accountable. AI drafts and summarises; qualified practitioners approve advice and filings.
Grounded in your material. Assistants use your approved precedents and policies, not the open internet.
Audit-ready. Every AI step can be logged and reviewed for risk and compliance.
Secure by design. Encryption, access controls and Australian hosting options for sensitive client data.

FAQs
Common questions.
Is AI appropriate for legal advice?
AI should assist, not replace professional judgement. We design review steps so lawyers remain responsible for advice.

Encryption, role-based access, audit logging and Australian hosting options, aligned to your policies.
Can you integrate with our practice management system?
Usually. We integrate with common practice, DMS and billing platforms where APIs are available.
Do you work with mid-size firms as well as large?
Yes. We scope focused tools that fit firm size and risk appetite.
How long does a professional-services app take?
A focused first release typically takes three to six months.
Will we own the software?
Yes. On completion and final payment you own the source code and related assets.
