About Smokeball

Smokeball differentiates with automatic time tracking that passively records all activity across documents, emails, and applications. This captures billable time that lawyers typically fail to record manually.

The platform provides matter management, document automation (with 20,000+ legal forms), accounting, trust management, and reporting. Deep Microsoft Office integration enables working within familiar tools.

Smokeball's activity intelligence automatically tracks time spent on files, emails, and phone calls without manual entry. This data feeds into productivity analytics and firm performance insights.

The platform targets small law firms (1-25 attorneys) who want to maximize revenue through better time capture and streamline operations with document automation.
