Stop Revenue Leakage. Automatically.
Every quick email, unlogged call, and forgotten meeting is unbilled work — lost revenue. LeanLaw has integrated with Billables AI to passively capture work across emails, meetings, calendar, and documents — automatically drafting compliant time entries that sync directly into LeanLaw, so attorneys recover lost hours without the administrative burden.

Every Unlogged Minute Is Revenue You Will Never Recover
The average attorney loses more than 30% of billable time to poor capture. Quick emails go out without a time entry. A call wraps up and gets forgotten. Documents are reviewed without a record. By the end of the day, reconstruction from memory produces vague entries that clients dispute — and partners write off. The revenue was earned. It was just never billed.
- Lost Billable Time: Quick emails and calls slip through the cracks before they can be logged.
- Painful Reconstruction: Attorneys waste valuable time rebuilding their day from memory at the end of the week.
- Vague Entries and Write-offs: Delayed entries get disputed by clients, damaging realization rates.
- Administrative Burden: Staff spends hours chasing timesheets instead of supporting the practice.
Attorneys Lose an Average of $61,000 a Year in Uncaptured Billable Hours.
That is not an estimate — it is the average revenue leaked per attorney per year across firms that track imprecisely or rely solely on manual entry. Multiply that by your headcount and you begin to see the true cost of the status quo. LeanLaw + Billables AI is the only solution that eliminates the gap between work performed and work billed, without changing how attorneys work.

Billables AI runs silently in the background while attorneys practice law. LeanLaw handles everything downstream — no extra steps required.
Passive Capture
Billables AI silently monitors emails, calendar events, phone calls, meetings, documents, and legal research as work happens — no timers, no manual logging.
AI Drafts Entries
Every captured activity is analyzed and converted into a compliant time entry narrative linked to the correct client and matter — ready for attorney review.
Sync to LeanLaw
Approved entries flow directly into LeanLaw with no manual import or double entry. Attorneys spend minutes reviewing, not hours reconstructing.
Bill with Confidence
Accurate, contemporaneous entries mean fewer disputes and write-offs. LeanLaw generates invoices and syncs everything to QuickBooks Online automatically.
Attorneys review and approve every AI-drafted entry before it bills — nothing is captured or billed without your sign-off.
