What is it?

A planning tool is the application a legal firm uses to assign work, track availability, and balance billable hours across lawyers and teams. For IT, it usually means consolidating capacity data that currently lives in calendars, spreadsheets, and email threads into one auditable system that connects to the rest of your stack.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ About the Betty Blocks Platform

What is planning tool software for a legal firm?

It is the application that consolidates lawyer availability, matter assignments, and billable hour tracking into one system. It replaces the spreadsheets, calendars, and email threads firms typically use to coordinate work.

Can I build a planning tool without writing code?

Yes. Betty Blocks is an AI Application Generation Platform. You describe what your firm needs and the platform generates a working starting point. Developers can extend it in code when needed.

How long does it take to build a planning tool on Betty Blocks?

A working starting application generates in minutes from a prompt. Fitting it to your firm's matter types, roles, and reporting usually takes days, not the months a custom build or off the shelf rollout requires.

Is Betty Blocks secure enough for a law firm planning tool?

Yes. Every app inherits your existing RBAC, SSO, DTAP environments, and audit logging. Hosting options include private cloud and on premises. The generated code is auditable and portable.

Can a Betty Blocks planning tool integrate with our practice management system?

Yes. Pre-built connectors cover practice management, time tracking, HR, identity, and the rest of the systems firms run. Access controls of each source system are respected when data flows into the planning tool.

Do I need developers to maintain it?

No, but you can use them. Business users and analysts can adjust workflows, roles, and views in the platform. Developers extend with code when a requirement demands it. One environment, both audiences.
