There is a version of AI translation that law firms buy off a shelf and quietly stop using inside a month. Then there's the version that's wired into your real workflow, owned by a person on your team, and still in use a year later. We only build the second one.

Built on: Claude DeepL ElevenLabs Vercel
The law firms reality
What we keep hearing from NZ law firms.
- Law firms bill for judgement, but a huge share of the week still goes on intake, document review, and status updates.
- New matter intake and routine client updates are the two places firms lose the most billable time to admin.
How we build AI translation for law firms.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for a law firm business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI multilingual + te reo.

Questions
FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for law firms?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Anyone else in this space using AI translation?
Plenty. Expanded customer reach by 22% with multilingual support live. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" – it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI translation stack we reach for is Claude, DeepL, ElevenLabs, Vercel, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run – Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
