⏱️ Legal Billing & Time Tracking Agent

"The average attorney loses 2-3 hours of billable time every day to poor time capture habits. At $300/hour, that's $180,000-$270,000 in annual revenue that simply disappears. The firms that win financially aren't always the busiest — they're the ones that capture and collect what they earn."
