Firms are saving with AI. Are you benefiting?

The savings should reach your invoices. QuarterHour makes sure they do.

  • Fits the workflow you have

    Invoices keep arriving where they do today. QuarterHour reads them there. Nobody changes how they work.

  • Audits against your terms

    Rate caps, staffing rules, increments, expenses and discounts, straight from your MSAs, firm by firm.

  • Built how you want it

    Levers, thresholds, reports and where flags go are configured for you. Need a check nobody else has? We add it.

Know what every firm is really costing you.

QuarterHour keeps a running scorecard for every firm you use, built on your own rate agreements, so a problem gets caught on the second invoice, not at year-end.

FAQ

Does QuarterHour actually read the invoices?

Yes. Every PDF that reaches your accounts-payable inbox (scanned bills, multi-document packets, foreign-currency invoices, handwritten approval caps) is read down to the time entry, disbursement and timekeeper, with every number linked back to the page it came from.

What does it check the invoices against?

The terms you actually negotiated: rate caps, timekeeper rate cards, escalation limits, staffing expectations, billing increments, prohibited disbursements and discounts. Where a firm has no written terms yet, sensible defaults apply until you set your own.

How is this different from a one-off billing audit?

It never stops. Every new invoice is audited the moment it arrives, and every firm keeps a running scorecard, so a firm that starts creeping over its cap gets caught on the second invoice, not at year-end.

Does it reject or dispute anything on its own?

No. QuarterHour flags the issue, attaches the evidence, and leaves the conversation with the firm to you. Your team stays in control of every payment.

How much can we expect to save?

At an asset management firm with $100B+ in AUM, we are saving 10% of its external legal fees. Book a demo and we will run the numbers on your own invoices.

Does it fit how we already handle invoices?

Yes. QuarterHour reads invoices from wherever they arrive today, whether that is an accounts-payable inbox, SharePoint, NetSuite, an S3 bucket or a matter-management system, and flags them there as well. Your team keeps its process; the audit just happens inside it.

Can we customize what it checks?

Yes. The ten levers, their thresholds, the approval rules, the reports and where the flags are delivered are all configured around your MSAs and your policies. If your business needs a check nobody else does, we build it in.

Can I see it with our firms and invoices?

Yes. Book a demo and bring a handful of recent invoices and your engagement letters, and we will show you exactly what QuarterHour finds.
