Reads across your stack
Not just the case file
Filevine, your document storage, email, SMS, billing. The brain holds them together, so it can answer questions the case system alone cannot and notice when two systems disagree.
Filevine and AI
Filevine runs your cases. A firm brain runs everything around them.
Filevine is a strong case system. LOIS and Filevine AI can read across Filevine matters and take Filevine actions. A firm brain is still a different job: purpose-built across Filevine plus email, SMS, billing, and the other systems this firm actually runs, implemented in partnership and operated with approval gates.
That demo is the Managed Firm Brain, not a Filevine product. We build on the case system you already run. See the Conduit proof.
The honest answer
Does Filevine AI automate the firm?
It automates Filevine work. LOIS and Filevine AI can read across matters and write Filevine actions such as tasks, deadlines, notes, and documents. For a high-volume plaintiff practice, that is real leverage, and you should use it.
It is still Filevine's product on Filevine's platform. Email, SMS, billing, and any store that is not Filevine remain this firm's other systems. FirmOps builds the firm brain on the stack you already run, including Filevine, so those systems sit in one supervised layer, implemented in partnership and operated for you. See CMS AI vs a firm brain and Clio Work vs Filevine vs a purpose-built firm brain.
What a firm brain adds on top
One layer across Filevine and everything else.
FirmOps does not replace your case system. The offer is the Managed Firm Brain: one layer across Filevine and the rest of your stack.
Drafts from the real file
Not a template with blanks
Filevine AI works from Filevine. The brain is built to read the rest of this firm's file: correspondence, billing, and stores Filevine does not operate, then draft for approval.
Holds for approval
A person always releases
Drafts land in the requesting staff member's own email drafts, or behind approve, reject, and retry controls. Nothing leaves the firm until a human clears it.
Works with your setup
Tool-agnostic by design
We build on the case system you already run, Filevine included. You do not switch platforms. We connect what you have, as long as your systems expose the APIs we need.
Common questions
Straight answers.
Does a firm brain replace Filevine?
No. It sits on top of Filevine and connects it to your other systems. You keep Filevine as your case system; the brain adds a layer across everything else.
Does Filevine have AI of its own?
Yes. Filevine AI, including LOIS, can read across Filevine matters and take Filevine actions such as tasks, deadlines, notes, and document generation. A firm brain is still a different job: purpose-built across Filevine plus the rest of this firm's stack, implemented in partnership, and run for you. CMS AI vs a firm brain.
Do I have to switch case systems to work with FirmOps?
No. FirmOps is tool-agnostic and builds on whatever you run, including Filevine, Clio, and SmartAdvocate. We only need your systems to expose APIs we can connect.
Does the AI send anything to clients on its own?
No. Documents draft into a staff member's own email drafts, and automations sit behind approve, reject, and retry controls. Live client calls stay with people.
Is Filevine AI what FirmOps sells?
No. Filevine AI lives in Filevine. The offer is the Managed Firm Brain: one supervised layer on the stack you already run, including Filevine. The demo is that offer, not a second Filevine product. What is a firm brain?.
