Actionstep Releases Actionstep Intelligence: AI Built for the Business of Midsize Law Firms
New built-in AI layer unifies and activates law firms’ institutional knowledge, surfacing insights that help firms capture missed revenue, elevate expertise, and confidently execute client work
The first capabilities available through Actionstep Intelligence are AI-powered time tracking and business intelligence.
AI-powered time tracking, Trace, observes and identifies billable activity across a fee earner’s work, maps it to the right matter and billing codes, and prepares draft time entries for review inside Actionstep. Entries are not posted automatically, and the fee earner retains control over what reaches the bill. Trace helps firms bill faster, stay focused on client work, and capture more revenue. Firms have reported recovering 25-50 additional billable hours per lawyer per year, saving up to 100 hours of manual entry per lawyer annually and holding billing deductions and appeals to 3% or less.
AI-enhanced business intelligence, Acumen, gives firm leaders, team leaders, and fee earners an interactive, role-specific, current, and curated picture of the financial and operational metrics they need to meet their KPIs, spot opportunities, and make more informed decisions. Acumen business intelligence is delivered through preconfigured, filterable, law-firm-specific dashboards within Actionstep. Acumen has an AI insight assistant to query reports, data sets, and trends and automatically surface insights and recommend actions tailored to the user profile and role. Acumen replaced the need to export and reconcile data through manually maintained systems or third-party tools.
Actionstep is expanding Actionstep Intelligence later this year with additional capabilities across search, workflow execution, and an MCP server.
Actionstep will be at ILTACON 2026 in Nashville, August 23–27, where members of the leadership team will be available for product demonstrations.
