Time tracking is manual
Sticky notes. End-of-week guesswork. By Friday you’ve forgotten 2–3 hours per day. That’s $300–500/week in lost revenue.
Solo and small law firms lose 14% of billable hours to manual processes. Vex recovers them automatically — with IOLTA-compliant trust accounting built in.
If you’re billing by the hour, every untracked minute is revenue walking out the door.
