The demand queue is moving. A board needs advice. A colleague needs the history. We build AI workspaces that bring the work together—shaped around your firm, and personal to the people doing it.
Show us how your firm worksFollow the workAI for your HOA practice. A practical place to start.FOLLOW THE WORK
A queue for the team. Context for the person working the file. Modules that connect the two.
See what is ready, what is waiting and who owns the next step. Select a stage, then follow the sample file.
INTAKE
Organize the manager’s packet by association, account and matter. Keep missing inputs visible before the file moves forward.
With: Intake team
SOURCE CHECKS
Put source figures and later updates together. Give your team a clear place to resolve discrepancies and record what still needs review.
With: Assigned paralegal
DRAFT PREPARATION
Build around your firm’s templates, association documents and reviewed source material. Keep open questions beside the draft.
With: Assigned paralegal
ATTORNEY REVIEW
Bring the proposed wording, supporting records and unresolved items into the handoff. Attorneys can see what changed and what needs a decision.
With: Supervising attorney
APPROVED NEXT STEP
Track an approved action, its owner and the record it depends on. Add later-stage modules where they fit your practice.
With: Assigned paralegal
Keep the association’s people, documents and earlier advice connected to the work happening now.
CEDAR HOLLOW
The manager’s architectural request connects to the governing documents and the advice already given.
WILLOW BEND
A new payment changes what the team needs to review before the collection matter moves forward.
Bring the source record, open questions and responsibilities together, so the next person can pick up the work.
The sample file contains an account statement and a later receipt. The next task is to reconcile the record, with the discrepancy visible to everyone involved.
Starting record for the preparation work.
The payment is absent from the earlier statement.
Confirm allocation and obtain the updated ledger.
Show the issue, the supporting record and the specific next step. Make a colleague’s work easier to continue.
“Please reconcile the later payment, attach the updated ledger, and bring the revised draft back for review.”
Illustrative workflow design. Stages, inputs, access and approvals are defined with your firm.
Build around our processMODULAR BY DESIGN
A demand pipeline can be the beginning. Association knowledge, advice and daily preparation can build on the same foundation.
A shared view from intake to source checks, preparation and attorney review. Shape queues, exceptions and handoffs around the way your firm moves a file.
Connect each association’s contacts, governing documents, active matters and prior advice. Open the file with the history already in reach.
Bring declarations, amendments and policies into the same review. Compare supplied versions, inspect source excerpts and keep unresolved questions visible.
Prepare correspondence from the matter’s context and your firm’s guidance. Review proposed changes before accepting them into the draft.
Organize the chronology, source records, discrepancies and outstanding evidence into a packet your team can review together.
Walk into a board or manager call with the background. Review the takeaways afterward and route agreed next steps to the right person and matter.
Your firm’s process becomes the brief. New needs become new modules.

PERSONAL TO YOUR PEOPLE
Shared knowledge should make each person more effective. Their workspace should feel like it understands their part of the work.
FOR THE ATTORNEY
Bring the relevant history, source questions and draft changes into your review. Personal preparation can sit alongside the shared matter context.
FOR THE PARALEGAL
Know what is missing, what changed and what the attorney needs next. Carry the record forward with the work you prepare.
FOR FIRM LEADERSHIP
Build a shared picture of queues, ownership and exceptions. Start with one useful workflow, then extend it across the people and matters it serves.
We define what stays personal, what belongs with an association or matter, and who can access it during implementation.
BUILT WITH YOUR FIRM
Start with one recurring HOA workflow and the people doing it. We discuss your needs and budget, build sample modules for feedback, and agree a focused first implementation.
Walk through the inputs, templates, exceptions, review steps and tools with the people who use them.
Build modules around a recurring need. Let attorneys and staff show us what makes them useful.
Agree the scope, access and integrations. Validate the first workflow and expand with the team.
Hands-on, onsite or remotely. Built and led by Jeremy Klar & Eric Gottschalk.
Talk with the buildersBEFORE WE BUILD
Start with one recurring HOA workflow: demand preparation, association context or a review handoff. We discuss your needs and budget, then agree the scope and price of a useful first implementation. You can evaluate that work before deciding whether to expand across the firm.
We build custom AI workspaces and modules around a firm’s actual work. Starting points include demand pipelines, associations and matters, governing-document review, drafting, case preparation and meeting follow-through. We learn your process, build sample modules with your people, and agree the implementation scope together.
Yes, later-stage preparation can be scoped into the workflow, including lien-related correspondence, litigation preparation and review packets. Your firm defines the stages, required inputs and approvals. Jurisdiction-specific requirements and any sending, filing or verification connections must be separately scoped and validated.
An attorney’s preparation and a paralegal’s queue can draw on the shared matter context while presenting the work each person needs. We define personal context, shared knowledge, access and handoffs with your firm during implementation.
The starting point is your current workflow and tools. We identify where a custom workspace would help and agree how information should move. Any case-management, document, email or data connection is confirmed and validated during scoping.
Your firm defines the review and approval process. The workspace is designed to prepare material and make source questions and proposed changes reviewable. The examples on this page are illustrative; they do not send correspondence, file documents or make legal decisions.
Show us one recurring workflow and the people involved. We learn the inputs, templates, exceptions and review steps, then build sample modules for feedback. We agree a practical first implementation and expand based on what your team finds useful. Engagements can be onsite or remote.
YOUR PRACTICE IS THE STARTING POINT
The packet that comes in incomplete. The handoff that needs another conversation. The history someone has to find. That’s a good place to start.
