Pyx · for law firms billing by the hour

End the write-down dance.

Auto-capture time at source. Sign envelopes at submission. Make every billed line defensible against client challenge — before it leaves your office.

What your firm actually does to keep its bills paid

Most of it isn't the work. It's the defense of the work.

Problem one

You eat 8 to 15% off your bills annually.

Not because the work wasn't done. Because the alternative is losing the client. The dance costs the firm more than the discount — every year, every relationship.

Problem two

Associates burn five hours a week on timesheets.

Daily entry, weekly reconciliation, monthly pre-bill scrubbing. The most universally hated workflow in the profession — and the cost of it is rolled into every rate you charge.

Problem three

Renewals rest on relationship, not data.

When the client compares you to two other firms next quarter, you have nothing defensible to point to. No scorecard. No accountability story. Just the relationship — and the hope that's enough.

Solution one · auto-capture at source

Time is captured from the work — not from memory.

Pyx pulls timekeeping signal directly from work artifacts: tracked-change timestamps in drafts, calendar entries, sent emails, document versioning. Associates stop fighting the timesheet. The data is more accurate than what they were producing manually — and they get those five hours a week back.

— 50,000 timekeeper-hours a year, returned to the work.

Solution two · signed at submission

Cryptographically signed envelopes make every billed line unilaterally defensible.

Every line of work is captured at source, signed cryptographically at submission, and arrives at the client as attestable infrastructure — not a one-sided narrative. Realization climbs from industry-average 87% toward 96%. Disputes become anomalies, not the norm.

— Signed at submission. Settled at receipt.

Solution three · the procurement edge

An audit story your competitors don't have.

When the next RFP arrives, you don't just submit rates and references. You submit OBP-L conformance — public certification that every billed line at your firm is cryptographically attestable. Brightflag-style spend-management tools have nothing to compare it to. AmLaw competitors can't answer it.

— Marketing differentiator. Procurement positioning. Renewal anchor.
