What would you do with your hours back?
Laine drafts, reviews, and edits legal documents. Answer three things any lawyer knows off the top of their head, and see what the time is worth. Every assumption is yours to adjust, and the defaults are set below what we measure in our own use.
First
How does your firm charge? It changes what an hour is worth to you.
Hourly
You bill time. Saved hours become billable capacity and recovered write-offs.
Fixed fee
You bill the matter. Saved hours become margin, and room for more matters.
Mixed
Some of each. We will show you both sides of the value.
Then, three things you already know
Adjust the assumptions.
Set below our internal benchmarks: substantial documents run 3 to 5 hours in the founder’s practice.
Between two measured internal points: 15 min for an amendment, ~2 hrs for a full draft with review. The trial proves your number.
Deliberately below 52.
Fully loaded team cost. Used for margin math only.

Laine costs about one billable hour per lawyer, per month. This page shows what it returns.
The gap is the business case.
Where our defaults come from
3-5 hrs → 15 min
A contract amendment, the traditional way versus in Laine. Founder's practice.
1.5 days → ~2 hrs
A full first draft, through an associate versus in Laine, including the partner's own review. Founder's practice.
8 findings, ~2 min
A live NDA review, surfaced and triaged. Measured, not estimated.
“Without a tool like Laine, I would need five or six more people to do my job.”

Those hours are billable capacity your team already owns. At your rate, here is what the same people could take on.
On fixed fees, saved hours become room for more matters at full margin. In the words of an attorney on our team: “We can squeeze in a lot more financings.” Here is the volume the same team could add.
Part of your book bills time, part bills the matter. The hours work for both sides.

{pct}% of today’s production cost, coming back.
The routine 80% is produced at full internal cost. The founder’s own firm math runs that production from about 60% of revenue toward 30%. Here is what it costs today, and what comes back.
Every production hour on a fixed fee comes out of your margin. Here is the cost of a matter, before and after.
