What We Automate

Four Automations That Pay for Themselves

01

AI-Powered Client Intake

Qualify potential clients 24/7 with an AI intake system that asks the right questions, assesses case viability, and schedules consultations with your attorneys automatically.

02

Lead Follow-Up Sequences

Personal injury leads that do not sign on the first call are not dead. AI follow-up sequences keep your firm top-of-mind with educational content about the legal process until they are ready to retain.

03

Automated Case Status Updates

Clients stop calling your office asking "what is happening with my case" when they receive automated status updates at every milestone. Reduce inbound calls by 60% and improve client satisfaction.

04

Review and Referral Engine

After case resolution, automated review requests and referral campaigns turn satisfied clients into your best marketing channel.

The Honest Pitch

No Fake Logos. No Inflated Numbers.

We are a small engineering studio onboarding our first cohort of PI firms — so instead of renting credibility, here is exactly what you get.

You talk to the engineer

No account managers or relay chains. The person who scopes your automation is the same senior engineer who builds it, deploys it, and answers your messages.

Founding-client pricing

Early PI firms get reduced rates and priority support in exchange for honest feedback — and, if you are happy, a case study we can publish with real numbers.

Plans from ₹21,000/mo (~$249)

Guaranteed or refunded

If the automations do not deliver measurable results within 60 days, you get a full refund and keep everything we built. The risk is ours, not yours.

Simple Process

Live in 2 Weeks — Here's How

1

How does the intake audit work?

We review your current intake process from start to finish: how leads come in, who qualifies them, how consultations are scheduled, and what happens between first contact and signed retainer. We identify every point where leads drop off or slow down, and we calculate how much revenue those gaps represent. This audit is free and typically reveals opportunities to double case volume without increasing ad spend.

2

How do you build the intake and follow-up systems?

We design AI intake workflows that connect to your website, phone system, and case management software, whether you use Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther, or Filevine. The AI qualifies leads with attorney-approved questions, scores case viability, and schedules consultations directly into your calendar. Follow-up sequences are written in collaboration with your team to ensure messaging is appropriate for personal injury clients and compliant with your state bar rules.

3

What results can our firm expect?

Most PI firms see a measurable increase in signed cases within the first 30 days. Response times drop from hours to minutes, follow-up becomes automatic, and clients receive consistent communication throughout their case. We provide monthly reports showing leads received, leads qualified, consultations booked, and cases signed. We continue to optimize intake questions, follow-up timing, and messaging based on conversion data.

Our “It Pays for Itself” Guarantee

If our automation doesn't save you at least 10 hours/week or generate enough new leads to cover your investment within 60 days, we'll refund every penny and let you keep the automations. Zero risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can personal injury law firms automate client intake without losing the personal touch?
AI intake is designed to be warm and empathetic, not robotic. The system asks questions in a conversational format, acknowledges the difficulty of the client's situation, and explains next steps clearly. When a lead qualifies, they are connected with a real attorney for the consultation. The AI handles the initial qualification so your attorneys spend their time with clients who have viable cases, not screening calls that go nowhere.
What is the best way for PI firms to follow up with leads who do not sign immediately?
Many personal injury leads need time to decide. They might be recovering from injuries, dealing with insurance companies, or consulting with family. AI follow-up sequences send educational content about the statute of limitations, what to expect in a personal injury case, and how an attorney can help, all timed over days and weeks. These value-driven messages keep your firm top-of-mind without being aggressive.
Can AI really help reduce the number of client status calls at a law firm?
Yes. Status calls are the single biggest drain on paralegal and support staff time at PI firms. When clients receive automated updates at every case milestone, demand letter sent, medical records received, deposition scheduled, settlement offer received, they feel informed and stop calling to ask for updates. Firms that implement automated status updates report a 50 to 70 percent reduction in inbound status calls.
Is AI intake compliant with state bar advertising and solicitation rules?
KraftAI works with your attorneys to ensure all intake messaging complies with your jurisdiction's rules of professional conduct. We do not make guarantees about outcomes, we clearly identify automated communications as such where required, and we follow all applicable advertising and solicitation rules. Every message template is reviewed and approved by your firm before deployment.
How much does AI intake automation cost for a personal injury law firm?
Most PI firms invest between $2,000 and $5,000 per month in AI intake and follow-up automation. Given that a single signed personal injury case can be worth $10,000 to $100,000 or more in fees, the ROI is substantial. If automation helps your firm sign even one additional case per month, it pays for itself many times over.
Will AI automation work with Clio, MyCase, or other legal case management software?
Yes. KraftAI integrates with all major legal case management platforms including Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther, Filevine, and Litify. We connect to their APIs to sync lead data, update case statuses, and trigger automated communications. You do not need to switch software or manually transfer data between systems.
Expert Answers

What Law Firms Ask About AI Intake Automation

Direct answers to the legal intake questions attorneys and firm administrators search for — backed by industry research.

Why do half of law firms fail to answer the phone and how much does it cost them?

A 2024 Clio mystery shopper study found that nearly half of law firms don't answer phone calls during regular business hours. Of 24 firms called about a serious truck accident case, only four answered. Meanwhile, 78% of legal consumers hire the first attorney they speak with. A firm that misses just 4 calls per week at a $25,000 average case value loses approximately $338,000 in potential annual revenue. AI intake answers every call within 2 rings, 24/7/365, qualifying leads and booking consultations before the prospect calls your competitor.

$338K lost annually from missing just 4 calls/week

What is the average law firm response time and why does it matter?

The average law firm first response time is 42 hours. The optimal response time for maximum conversion is under 5 minutes. When response exceeds 24 hours, the probability of ever reaching that lead drops by over 60%. The median law firm website converts at just 6.3%, but firms with structured intake and instant response convert 30-50% of leads into signed clients. The difference isn't marketing spend — it's intake infrastructure. AI-powered instant response ensures every inquiry gets a sub-60-second response across phone, web forms, chat, and email.

How do law firms capture the 42% of leads that arrive after business hours?

After-hours inquiries account for 42% of all law firm leads. Someone searching for a personal injury attorney at 11 PM just got in an accident — they're not waiting until morning. Web forms submitted after 5 PM typically don't get a response until the next business day, and weekend leads average 48+ hours. AI intake operates around the clock: evening accident? The AI answers, captures case details, and books a morning consultation. Sunday custody inquiry? Qualified, documented, and scheduled before Monday. Firms using 24/7 AI intake capture leads their competitors lose every single night.
