How Lawyers use Temporal.ist
Per-matter time capture
One folder per matter. File events become entries. Approve and round at end of day.
Research-time visibility
Tab time on Westlaw, LexisNexis, court filings — captured automatically.
Defensible billing record
Per-session activity log per matter for client review when needed.
- We're transparent: most law firms need Clio or PracticePanther integration we don't yet have. This page is honest about that.
- For solo practitioners or small firms not locked into legal-specific PMS, automatic tracking removes the daily timesheet burden.
- No screenshots, no surveillance. Designed for trust.
Disclaimer: legal time tracking is its own world. If you live in Clio or PracticePanther, those integrations don't yet exist on Temporal.ist — we're flagging that up front. For solo practitioners or firms open to standalone time tracking, here's the honest pitch.
Built for lawyers
Billable-hour culture punishes the lawyer who fails to log a 6-minute increment. Manual entry at end of day is a known accuracy disaster. Temporal.ist tracks file activity in matter folders and URLs in legal research tools, then helps you assemble billable entries. We're not the answer if your firm runs on Clio. We are an answer if you're on your own and tired of timesheet Sundays.
Pricing for lawyers
Free during early access. Legal-specific features (matter taxonomy, trust accounting) are not built yet.
