Product
The unified intelligence layer for the legal inbox.
Candle sits inside Gmail or Outlook and connects directly to the case management system your firm already runs on. The moment an email arrives, the matter, the client, the deadline, and the prior correspondence are already there.
01 · Triage
Every email arrives already sorted.
Candle categorizes and prioritizes messages as they land, separating time-sensitive client and court communications from newsletters, marketing, and internal noise, so nothing urgent sits unread in a crowded inbox.
02 · Context
Matter context, attached automatically.
Candle connects directly to Clio, Filevine, MyCase, DocketWise, Mitratech's INSZoom, VisaLaw, and Litify. Every thread is enriched with the client record, the open matter, key dates, and the history you'd otherwise have to go dig up yourself.
03 · Draft
Replies written in your voice, grounded in the file.
Candle drafts context-aware responses using the matter details it already has, so what lands in your outbox is specific to the client and the case, not a generic template. Nothing sends without your review.
04 · Capture
Billable time, logged as it happens.
Every email read, drafted, and sent through Candle is captured as time and activity automatically, closing the gap between the work lawyers actually do in their inbox and what ends up on the invoice.
Introducing
Candle Work
Candle Work goes beyond drafting. It acts on the requests already sitting in your inbox, then holds the result for your approval.
The work behind the email
Some emails only need an answer. Most of them start something: a record to update, a document to prepare, a step to log. That work looks different at every firm, but it always has the same three properties.
- 01
It pulls you out of the inbox
The email arrives in one place and the work happens somewhere else, so every request turns into a detour.
- 02
It spans systems you already run on
Case management, documents, spreadsheets, forms. The context is spread across all of them and none of them talk to your inbox.
- 03
It repeats all day
The same handful of steps, over and over, on message after message. That repetition is what a skill is for.

A library, not a feature
Each of those repeatable jobs is a skill. Candle Work ships with the ones firms reach for most, your team builds the ones specific to how you practice, and a skill one person writes is available to everyone in the firm.
Build your ownDescribe the steps onceNothing happens without you
- Read
Candle reads the thread and the systems behind it.
- Propose
It prepares the work and shows what would change.
- You approve
Nothing is saved, sent, or filed until you say so.
- Done
The change lands in the systems you already run on.
The agent's access is your access
Every user authorizes their own connections. A Candle Work agent can never see or touch anything the person running it couldn't reach on their own.
Nothing writes without a sign-off
Every change to an outside system is proposed first and held until a person approves it. There is no silent write path.
Client data stays out of training
Context is assembled for the task and discarded after it. Nothing your firm handles is used to train a model.
Every run is on the record
What ran, what it changed, and who approved it is logged in full, so the work is reviewable long after it happened.
A task that takes several minutes and three systems by hand costs
about a tenth as much
when Candle Work prepares it and your team approves it. Included in your plan as an annual task pool. Learn more
