Billing Narrative Cleanup for Corporate Attorneys with Ironclad
Run billing narrative cleanup on autopilot inside Ironclad.
The Problem
LEDES bills for M&A / Corporate Transactions matters get kicked back by clients and e-billing portals for vague narratives — realization drops and the billing coordinator chases lawyers for rewrites.
What We Build in Ironclad
AI rewrites narratives to match each client's outside-counsel guidelines in iManage, flags block-billing, and pre-validates against the portal — write-down rate drops from 12% to under 3%. Purpose-built for teams running Ironclad — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
