Not an AI assistant, an execution layer
Works with the systems you already use
Every action logged, sourced, and auditable

AI assistants answer. ChiefofStaff orchestrates.

From instruction to completion, across the firm.

ChiefofStaff receives your instruction, identifies the matter, selects the right people and systems, and tracks the work to completion, with a full audit trail.

Zero-touch inbox

Classify, delegate, draft, and file your inbox. Get back only what requires your personal judgment.

Task delegation

Speak an instruction. ChiefofStaff identifies the matter, finds the source documents, routes the task, and follows up.

Time and matter intelligence

Ask for unbilled time, retainer balances, or matter status. ChiefofStaff queries your connected systems and returns a sourced answer.

Governed execution with a full audit trail

Every action is recorded: what was decided, why, which sources were used, who approved. Reduce partner review time. Demonstrate compliance.

How ChiefofStaff works

From intent to controlled execution, across your firm's people, systems, and AI.

1

Connect your firm's systems

Link the tools your firm already uses: Outlook, Teams, Clio, iManage, billing, documents. No replacement required.

2

Express your intent

Speak, type, forward an email, or select a document. ChiefofStaff captures the instruction through whichever channel you prefer.

3

Controlled execution with a full audit trail

ChiefofStaff identifies the matter, applies your firm's rules, routes the work, requests approval where needed, and records every action and its reasoning.

What happens under the hood

Every instruction runs through a governed sequence, not a single step. Each stage is checked, applied, and recorded before the next begins.

  1. 1Intent captured — from voice, text, email, or a selected document
  2. 2Matter and client context applied
  3. 3Privacy and policy rules checked
  4. 4System selected — Outlook, Clio, iManage, billing, and more
  5. 5AI or workflow selected for the task
  6. 6Work routed to the right person or system
  7. 7Approval requested where the firm requires it
  8. 8Every action and its reasoning recorded
  9. 9Tracked to completion

Security and privacy by design

Auditability is not a compliance feature. It reduces the time partners spend reviewing AI-supported work.

  • Source traceability, every output shows the documents, cases, and data behind it
  • Controlled replay, lawyers can inspect inputs, adjust them, re-run, and compare
  • Privacy profiles, data residency options, model blocking by matter, no-training arrangements
  • Policy record, what approval was required and who gave it

Built on open source you can inspect

ChiefofStaff is the managed product. Its engine — DONNA — is open source, so the way your work is delegated and recorded is something you can read, run, and verify yourself.

  • Many ways in — voice, text, email forwarding, Teams, WhatsApp, Slack, browser extension, or a selected document all route work the same way
  • Every delegated decision leaves a tamper-evident receipt you can audit
  • Self-hostable and provider-agnostic — your data stays where you choose

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ChiefofStaff

What is ChiefofStaff?
ChiefofStaff is the intent orchestration layer for law firms. It turns a lawyer's instruction into controlled execution across the firm's people, systems, documents, and AI. An AI assistant gives you an answer and stops. ChiefofStaff receives the instruction, identifies the matter, the people, the documents, and the systems involved, routes the work, tracks it to completion, and creates an auditable record of what happened and why. Your firm's existing systems, Outlook, Teams, Clio, iManage, billing, stay in place. ChiefofStaff becomes the coordination layer above them.
What makes this different from Copilot, Harvey, or ChatGPT?
Copilot works inside one software environment, Microsoft 365. Harvey drafts legal documents. Both are point tools that produce an output and stop. ChiefofStaff works across your firm's environment. It decides which people, systems, documents, and AI capabilities are required, then manages the route to completion. When you ask ChiefofStaff to prepare a matter, it does not just draft a document, it identifies the matter, retrieves the relevant files, routes tasks to the right people, requests approval where the firm requires it, records time, and tracks what happens next. AI assistants answer. ChiefofStaff orchestrates.
Which devices are supported?
ChiefofStaff is currently available exclusively on iOS (iPhone and iPad). An Android version is on our roadmap.
Does it work with my email and calendar?
Yes. ChiefofStaff connects to Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams) and Google Workspace (Gmail, Google Calendar), alongside the systems your firm already uses — Clio, iManage, billing, and more. You can connect multiple accounts and drive them all through whichever channel you prefer: voice, text, email forwarding, Teams, WhatsApp, Slack, a browser extension, or a selected document.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. We take security seriously — especially for legal professionals handling sensitive client information. All your data is protected with end-to-end encryption. We never store or share your data with third parties. Your privacy is our top priority.
How do I give ChiefofStaff instructions?
However it suits you. Voice is one of several input channels, alongside text, email forwarding, Teams, WhatsApp, Slack, a browser extension, and document selection. Express your intent through any of them — delegate a task, prepare a matter, retrieve documents, capture time, classify your inbox, or coordinate a follow-up — and ChiefofStaff identifies the matter, routes the work, and tracks it to completion. No commands to memorize.
How much does it cost?
ChiefofStaff is $99/month. This includes unlimited intent capture and orchestration across every input channel, connections to the systems your firm already uses, governed execution with a full audit trail, multi-account support, and all features. Early waitlist members may receive special launch pricing.
When will ChiefofStaff launch?
We're currently in private beta with a limited group of legal professionals. Join the waitlist to get early access and be among the first to experience voice-first productivity. Waitlist members get priority access as we expand availability.

Everything begins with intent. Everything ends with execution.
