Billing Narrative Cleanup for IP Attorneys with ipManager
Run billing narrative cleanup on autopilot inside ipManager.
The Problem
LEDES bills for Patent Prosecution 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 ipManager
AI rewrites narratives to match each client's outside-counsel guidelines in ipManager, flags block-billing, and pre-validates against the portal — write-down rate drops from 12% to under 3%. Purpose-built for teams running ipManager — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
