Intapp Time: 18 years of AI capture, one AI-native foundation 

AI is coming to the legal market at an unprecedented rate, bringing plenty of opinions and noise along with it. While much of what the market is sharing is genuinely useful, it can be also difficult to discern what’s true and trusted.  

Intapp has been building the systems that law firms use to run their business for more than 25 years. We work with 97 of the Am Law 100. Our deep legal experience and decades of best practices and data inform our solutions strategy and deliver proven results.

Here is how we converted 18 years of passive time-capture experience into an even more powerful profitability tool for firms, built on an AI-native foundation.

Every hour counted, including time using AI

Many firms have no way to measure how much of their billable work includes AI usage. Intapp Time with Celeste captures billable work as it happens across every app on your timekeepers’ desktops, then drafts complete time entries for review: matter, duration, billing codes, and narrative. It also turns AI usage into billable line items and surfaces insights into how AI is used firmwide — by practice area, client, and matter. So you can put your AI to work and see exactly how it’s driving revenue and work-to-cash flow.  

Billing rules and OCGs checked at the moment of entry

Every time one of your timekeepers creates an entry, Time with Celeste checks it against your firm’s billing rules and each client’s OCGs. If a narrative would trigger a write-down or a client rejection — for restricted language, tone and style issues, or incomplete descriptions, for example — it flags the issue and proposes a compliant rewrite your timekeeper can accept with one click. It catches block billing the same way — before the entry ever reaches your client — and fully rewrites it to be compliant. Every suggestion reflects your firm’s tone and style, so narratives that once would have caused billing rejections and payment delays no longer make it out the door. It’s all included in Time with Celeste — no other Intapp products required.  

Complete, accurate entries built from tracked work

Time with Celeste captures activity continuously, uses it to resolve gaps in a timekeeper’s day, then builds complete, compliant entries from that tracked work. Lawyers confirm their entries rather than reconstructing them from memory, so your  firm can recover the hours it would otherwise have lost. 

A single compliance pipeline that works for every method

Time with Celeste applies the same compliance and coding rules to every entry, whether it was created through passive capture, AI-assisted manual entry, voice, mobile, or timer. Fee earners can use whatever method they prefer, and the experience won’t change. 

Instant answers to profitability questions

An AI panel built into Time with Celeste runs pre-built playbooks (Unaccounted Time, Time Recording Health, Top Clients at a Glance) and gives instant answers to plain-language questions about work activity and matter performance.  

Proof, not promises

Every stat we put in front of you is tied to a named firm and a published result:

• Seyfarth Shaw cut revenue leakage by 20% after automating its billing workflow with Intapp Billstream. (Case study) 
• Mintz reduces time spent editing bills by 35-40% with Intapp Billstream. (Case study) 
• Johnson Winter & Slattery accelerated revenue collection and billing efficiency; they achieved 75% faster time entry release (Case study)
