Professional services

Your fee-earners bill. AI agents handle the keystrokes.

In a professional firm the constraint is rarely demand — it's chargeable time leaking into data entry, document handling, and onboarding checks. Nova builds AI agents that do those tasks end-to-end: data keyed into your practice system, documents read and filed, and Companies House and KYC checks run online — without a fee-earner touching any of it.

Submit Application Data Entry · Document Processing · Web Automation

Your most expensive people are doing work that doesn't bill.

Client and matter details are typed into the practice system by hand. Engagement letters, IDs and financial documents are read and filed manually. Onboarding stalls while someone runs KYC and Companies House checks online. None of it requires professional judgement — it's just volume, and it consumes your highest-cost resource.

Workflows we automate

Exactly what changes.

New client → keyed into the practice system

Before

Staff re-key client and matter details into the practice management system by hand.

After

Agent logs in and enters every field, with a screenshot per record. Staff check only exceptions.

Document received → data extracted → filed

Before

Staff read, re-key, and file every engagement letter and client document by hand.

After

Document arrives → extracted → validated → filed automatically. Staff handle only exceptions.

Companies House & KYC checks

Before

Onboarding waits while staff run Companies House and ID checks online manually.

After

Agent runs the checks, verifies company and directors, and returns the result in seconds.

Cross-system reconciliation

Before

Figures cross-checked between systems by hand at month-end.

After

Data reconciled across systems automatically; mismatches flagged for a person.

How it works in practice

New client → keyed into the practice system

The agent logs into your practice management software and enters new client and matter details the way a paralegal or junior would — accurately, with a screenshot of each record. The fee-earner gets a clean file, not an admin task.

Document received → data extracted → filed

Nova reads engagement letters, IDs, and financial documents, extracts the structured data, and files them in your system. Anything ambiguous is routed to a person, never guessed.

Companies House & KYC checks

Onboarding no longer waits on manual checks. The agent verifies the company and its directors on Companies House and runs your ID checks online, returning verified details in seconds.

Cross-system reconciliation

Figures that normally get cross-checked by hand at month-end are reconciled across systems automatically, with only genuine mismatches surfaced for a person to resolve.

The outcome

Chargeable hours returned to fee-earners, onboarding measured in hours not days, and zero time lost to keying and filing — measured against your own utilisation data. Client data stays inside your firm.

Questions we're asked

Is client data kept confidential and in-house?

Yes. We run on UK/EU infrastructure, your data stays inside your business, and it's never used to train any external model.

Does this replace our staff?

No. It removes the repetitive keying, filing, and checks so your people do higher-value work. Humans stay on the exceptions and the judgement calls.

Will it work with our practice management software?

Yes — the agent operates the system you already run through the screen, so it works even where there's no API. Integration is confirmed in the architecture phase.

How do you handle compliance and accuracy?

Anything ambiguous is routed to a person, not guessed, and every entry is screenshotted for an audit trail. The workflow is designed around your compliance requirements — confirmed in the diagnostic.

If that's the constraint worth removing, apply.

We review every application ourselves and respond within two working days. If there's a fit, we start with a diagnostic to confirm where the real bottleneck is.
