New Smokeball AI Suite Set to Transform Legal Workflows

Smokeball, the industry-leading artificial intelligence-powered legal practice management platform, announces the launch of Smokeball AI, a suite of embedded AI solutions boosting its existing productivity powerhouse. The new suite includes Archie, an AI-powered matter assistant designed to transform the daily workflows and lives of lawyers at small and medium-sized law firms.

According to Smokeball’s 2024 State of Law report, an overwhelming 74% of professionals are eager to explore the benefits of AI, with 57% excited to use it to improve business processes. Smokeball AI helps firms securely adopt and easily embrace AI.

“We’re at an inflection point as many lawyers are actively investigating what AI can do for their profession. Our client testing has seen the highest participation rates in our company's history, demonstrating the level of interest in AI,” said Hunter Steele, CEO and Co-founder of Smokeball. “When combined with Smokeball’s automation and integrations, our AI will boost clients’ productivity and client service, giving them distinct business advantages.”

Smokeball’s solution already gives users access to documents, email, and critical matter information in one secure system with best-in-class automation and integrations. Smokeball AI enhances existing platform functionalities, including Intake and Smokeball’s secure client messaging feature, Communicate, to further streamline data collection and management so lawyers can focus more on clients.

• Intake helps lawyers build Intake forms in moments from existing manual documents for efficient information gathering.
• Communicate provides an instant summary of correspondence with clients and between staff, so lawyers can get up to speed with any case in seconds.

Improve Matter Productivity with Archie

Archie, the hero of Smokeball AI, is available now. This revolutionary AI-powered matter assistant enhances matter productivity by answering queries and drafting correspondence and legal documents in real-time. For example, Archie can draft an email response to a document from the other party highlighting specific challenges or scenarios.

Through deep integration and access to matter data, lawyers can receive instant answers to matter questions, draft correspondence quickly, and produce matter summaries in moments. This integration within a firm’s existing workflows means no third-party platforms, giving lawyers peace of mind about the crucial security they need. Archie works out of the box, accessing all existing matter information and documents within a single solution.

Smokeball continues to innovate and will release even more enhancements to the Smokeball AI suite, including its AutoTime and Analytics functionality. Users can also look forward to further growth and power within Archie, which is set to transform the way legal firms work.
