A narrow footprint, on purpose.

Candle works where your team already works.

Candle runs through a Chrome extension and Outlook add-in, inside the inbox your firm already uses. It connects to supported case management systems without becoming a new system of record.

Drafts and proposed actions remain subject to human review. Nothing is sent or filed without explicit approval from a user at your firm.
