Your calls answered. Your files worked. Even when you can’t be.

FrontFile is the AI front desk and file copilot built for solo and small Canadian law firms. It answers the calls that would otherwise hit voicemail — after hours, in court, mid-meeting — and gives you a private copilot that summarizes, cross-checks, and drafts from your own files.

Two halves. Take either one — or both.

FrontFile is an AI receptionist for your phone line and a copilot for your files. They work independently, and they’re priced so a solo practice can start with just the half it needs.

Phone intake

The calls you can’t take, answered properly

For most small firms, a missed call is voicemail — and most callers never leave a message. They just call the next firm.

You keep your number. Your line forwards to your FrontFile number after hours — or whenever a call rings unanswered. Forwarding is yours to switch off anytime.
A proper intake, every time. Caller, matter, deadlines, documents — taken the same way at 2 PM or 2 AM, for every area of law.
It says it’s an AI assistant — and it never gives legal advice or quotes fees.
A packet after every call: summary and full transcript in your inbox. Deadline-sensitive calls get a separate urgent alert, right away.

Copilot — live now

A private copilot that works your files

Built, tested, and running today on a server in Toronto. One chat per client; the copilot reads every document in that chat together.

Summaries, cross-checks, drafts, morning briefs — the paperwork first pass, done in seconds.
It catches what tired eyes miss: a name spelled two ways across documents, a payout statement expiring before closing, math that doesn’t add up.
Answers only from your file. Every fact names its source document — and if it isn’t in the file, it says so instead of guessing.
Everything is stamped DRAFT for your review and approval. It does the paperwork, never the law.

Copilot · Client chat: Sharma Fictional file

Practising on your own? Then you already know the problem.

A solo lawyer is the receptionist, the associate, and the IT department — all while in court, in discoveries, or across the table from a client. FrontFile was built for exactly that practice: no staff to hire, no software to install, no one to train.

One

Your phone stops depending on you

While you’re with a client, your next client is being answered, screened, and written up — not leaving a voicemail they’ll never finish, or dialling the firm down the street.

Two

The first pass is done before you sit down

New file lands at noon; by the time you open it, there’s a summary, the inconsistencies are flagged, and a draft update is waiting for your edits. You start at review, not at page one.

Three

Priced for one lawyer, not a department

Take the copilot on its own at $149 per lawyer/month, the phone line on its own, or both. One private link is your whole sign-in — it works on the phone in your pocket.

The pilot: live in 7 days, free for 14

No migration, no new software to learn, no contract. If it doesn’t earn its keep in two weeks on your real calls and files, it shuts off.

We set up your workspace

Your firm’s details, practice areas, templates, and writing style are loaded into your own private copilot. Done for you — you answer a few questions by email.

You get one link

Click it once and you’re signed in to your copilot — it runs around the clock, whether your computer is on or not. Rename each chat to a client’s name and it becomes your client list.

Forward your line

Your existing number forwards to your FrontFile number after hours, or on no-answer. You keep your number, and you can turn forwarding off whenever you like.

Fourteen days free

Real calls, real files, real packets in your inbox. Then it’s a flat monthly price — or it shuts off. No obligation past the trial.

Pick what you need

One half or both — every option starts with the same free pilot. Prices in CAD, flat monthly, no per-call or per-minute billing.

Straight answers

I’m a solo lawyer. Is this really built for one person?

Yes — solo and small practices are who FrontFile is for. There’s no IT department required and nothing to install: we set up your workspace, you get one private link, and the phones and paperwork are handled from there. Take either half on its own, at pricing that fits a one-lawyer practice.

Does the AI ever give legal advice?

Never. On the phone it introduces itself as an AI assistant, takes intake, and stops there — no advice, no fee quotes. In the copilot, everything it produces is a draft for your review and approval. FrontFile does the paperwork, never the law.

Do I have to change my phone number?

No. You keep your number. Your line simply forwards to your FrontFile number after hours — or whenever a call goes unanswered — and you can switch forwarding off at any time. You’re always in control of it.

Where do my files live?

On a server in Toronto, Canada. Each firm gets its own private workspace, and inside it, one chat per client — the copilot only ever reads the files in the chat you’re asking about, and it names the source document under every fact it gives you.

What if the answer isn’t in the file?

It says “Not in the file” instead of guessing. That rule is tested, not just promised: the copilot passed a seven-test acceptance suite — summarizing, cross-checking conflicting documents, refusing to invent answers, drafting, and briefing — before it went live.

Which areas of law does it cover?

All of them. Both the intake and the copilot are set up for every practice area — real estate, family, corporate, wills and estates, litigation, and the rest — and your workspace is loaded with your firm’s own templates, rules, and writing style.

What happens after the 14 free days?

You pick a plan and pay monthly — or it shuts off. There’s no contract and no obligation past the trial. If FrontFile isn’t earning its keep, you’ve lost nothing but two weeks of answered phones.
