Referent is AI-native legal practice management software for lawyers and law firms. It combines Legal AI, Legal CRM, client intake, matter management, documents, deadlines, email workflows, follow-ups, and billing prep to help turn any law firm into an AI-native law firm.
Hi Product Hunt, George here, founder of Referent.
Almost four years ago, we launched AI Lawyer. Today it ranks #1 organically on Google for "AI lawyer" and has become the leading legal AI product for consumers.
Tens of thousands of lawyers have used it, and their feedback kept pointing to the same gap. Legal tech had plenty of research and drafting tools. Legal CRM and legal practice management software were still stuck in the pre-AI era. So we built Referent, an AI-native legal CRM and legal practice management platform for solo and small law firms.
We recently opened 20 spots for a closed beta. We received more than 450 applications in less than three weeks. That made the decision easy: we opened the beta to everyone.
Lawyers and AI builders, we'd love your feedback.

Thanks to Rohan for hunting us and to the Product Hunt community for taking a look. Our team has worked hard to get Referent into yours hands.
@angelaaa Thanks, we're a different layer than Legora. They do research and drafting. We run the operations around that work: intake, matters, deadline tracking, follow-ups.

Sounds promising. Do you have an affiliate program? PM me, we have a huge network of legal contacts
@darly_selby Not in terms of numbers. All agent actions are recorded in the activity log, so you can see what was done, but we don’t convert that into hours saved. However, I should add that before working on the project, we conducted research, and the answer was the same across the board: case intake, email management, data entry, and meeting deadlines.

Does Referent provide visibility into which tasks are consuming the most time across matters?
@jackthompson68 Time logs are linked to cases and clients, so you can see what you spent your time on. Voice input is also available: you can describe what you did after a call instead of entering that information later.

Can Referent learn a firm's preferred workflows, templates, and document style over time?
@iris_carr Yes. It’s all based on the firm’s memory: the longer your firm works within this system, the more it learns, how you run a matter, what your documents look like, and how you phrase things. You provide your own templates, and agents draft from your matters, so the draft already reflects the client and the case.
We use Attio, and everyone's emails are integrated into the CRM. I can't imagine how lawyers, with their professional distortions, can give AI permission to read emails 💀 In any case, good luck with the PH, the product looks great, lawyers should check it out.

Nice alternative to Legora, especially considering the price

@1mirul Thanks, I sent the details via DM.
The program is live: referent.law/affiliate-program
Could firms also track workflows save the most staff time after adoption?
