Never lose another case to a missed call.
Answer every caller in English or Spanish, then run the whole matter to closing.
Built for: Solo and two-to-fifteen-person personal injury firms losing after-hours callers to voicemail · Criminal defense practices whose calls come at 11pm, on weekends, and from a jail phone · Any firm where a Spanish-speaking caller currently reaches an English-only recording · Attorneys running matters, deadlines, time, and client trust money on legal pads and calendar reminders


The problem
ASL Intake exists because of this.
A woman whose car was hit an hour ago calls three firms in a row. Someone gave her the names. Whoever picks up gets the case. That is the entire contest, and it is decided in the seven seconds before your voicemail greeting finishes. The calls come at night, on Saturdays, and during the hour you are standing in front of a judge, because that is when the bad thing happened. Then there is the caller who says hola and hears an English recording. She does not leave a message. You never learn that she called, so you never find out what it cost you. Nobody puts that on a report. It just quietly does not show up in your numbers. The calls you do catch turn into a second problem, and it is the one that keeps attorneys awake. The facts are on a legal pad. The deadline is in somebody's head. The statute date is on a wall calendar nobody looks at until it is close. Friday's time entries get written up on Monday, or not at all. And the client's retainer sits in the trust account, where one disbursement made against the wrong balance is not an accounting error, it is a grievance. Most firms your size handle all of this by being careful. Careful is not a system. It fails the week your paralegal has the flu, and it fails quietly, months before anyone finds out.
What changes
- We are structurally unable to read what a caller types into the secure form. The answers are locked on the caller's device to a key only your firm holds, in storage your firm owns. That is not a promise about our access controls; it is a design that leaves us nothing to look at.
- Bilingual down to the exact reviewed Spanish safety wording, not a translated button label on an English product. The screens only your staff see are bilingual too.
- Conflict checks are recorded and shown loudly, and deliberately never block. The product refuses to make a legal judgment for you, and instead makes sure you cannot miss the hit.
- The trust ledger refuses an overdraft in two independent places, and history cannot be edited. That was tested on the live database with two simultaneous disbursements against one balance, and with a direct write attempted around the application, which was refused.
- Closing a matter is guarded, not a status field. It will not close over client money still held, work never billed, or an invoice still outstanding, and it names every blocker at once.
- The intake and the practice system are one system. The 11pm call becomes an open matter with a single action, once, with the link back to the original call recorded and a second conversion refused.
- Every deployed release carries a provenance stamp minted before the archive is built, so an auditor can confirm what is actually running rather than trusting anyone's memory of it.
What it does
How ASL Intake works, start to finish.
ASL Intake is two halves that are one system: a bilingual intake line that answers your firm's phone, and a practice workspace where that call becomes an open matter and runs through to closing. The two halves arrive on different schedules, and it is worth being clear about that up front. The practice workspace is running today. The phone line and the texted secure form are built, deployed and drill-tested, but they stay switched off for your firm until supervised English and Spanish call testing is completed with you and your approvals are recorded. The live service says exactly that on its own homepage. Here is what the call half does once it is switched on for you. The call is picked up immediately, in English or Spanish, by an assistant that says plainly what it is before it asks a single question. The caller chooses a language and can switch mid-call without repeating themselves. There is no menu tree and no hold music. Safety comes before facts. If someone is in immediate danger, the call directs them to emergency services and does not pretend to dispatch anyone. A behavioral-health crisis is routed to the 988 crisis line rather than another intake question. Custody, a court date today, a filing deadline closing this week: those get flagged as urgent rather than dropped into a queue with everything else. Consent is recorded before matter details are collected, and the caller is told plainly that the call is transcribed for the firm and that none of this makes anyone their lawyer. What lands on your side is not a message slip. It is a structured record with names and roles, contact details the caller confirmed out loud, the incident timing, the facts in their own words, the urgency call, and the language they chose. Some callers would rather type than talk, especially about a medical history or an arrest. With their separate permission, they get a text with a one-time link to a short bilingual form that takes up to ten photos or documents. Here is the part worth reading twice. Everything they type and every file they attach is locked on their own device before it leaves it, using a key only your firm holds, and it goes to storage your firm owns. We keep a receipt that a submission arrived, how many files came with it, and a fingerprint proving nothing was altered in transit. We do not hold the answers, the file names, the contents, or the key. Not as a policy. By construction. If you ask us what a caller wrote, the honest answer is that we cannot look. Once a caller becomes a client, one action turns that intake into an open matter, with the link back to the original call recorded and a second conversion refused. Opening a matter searches your contact book and every party on every prior matter, and writes the result onto the matter itself. Hits are shown loudly and never block you, because whether a conflict is real is a judgment call and it stays yours. The matter opens with the standard checklist for its practice area already in it: preservation letters, carrier notice and records requests for injury work; arraignment calendaring, discovery requests and bond-condition review for defense work, with due dates already computed. Court dates, deadlines and the statute date live on one calendar that warns you ninety days out and downloads into the calendar app you already use. Time goes in as minutes and a rate and comes out as whole cents. Invoices generate from every unbilled entry at once, cannot be overpaid, and release their entries again if you void them. Client money is treated the way the bar treats it. The trust ledger is per matter, append-only, and refuses to let a disbursement exceed that matter's balance. It refuses twice, in two independent places, so no future shortcut can talk it into an overdraft and two people clicking at the same moment cannot both take the money. Corrections are new offsetting entries, never edits. Privileged notes work the same way. A matter will not close while trust money is still held, work is still unbilled, or an invoice is still out, and it names every blocker at once instead of one at a time. Your staff work in a private bilingual workspace with Matters, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Billing and Trust as tabs, and there is a phone app for the person standing in a courthouse hallway rather than sitting at a desk. Engagement letters, printable statements, a receivables aging view, a trust reconciliation report and spreadsheet exports all come out of the same place. Every screen exists in English and U.S. Spanish, including the ones only your staff ever see.
Features
Everything in the current release.
Each of these is built and working today. Nothing on this list is a roadmap item.
Picks up in English or Spanish, and switches mid-call
The caller chooses a language in the first few seconds and can change their mind halfway through without starting over. This is not a translated greeting bolted onto an English script. The safety wording, urgency questions, confirmations, voicemail message and closing all exist in reviewed U.S. Spanish. Names, phone digits, dates and legal facts are kept exactly as the caller gave them rather than translated into something a court would not recognize. This half is switched on for a firm only after supervised bilingual call testing.
Says what it is before it asks anything
Every call opens by identifying the assistant as automated, stating that the call is transcribed and shared only with the firm, and stating that this is not legal advice and does not make anyone your client. That disclosure is spoken before a single personal fact is collected, in whichever language the caller chose. Your firm approves that wording for your own practice before calls open.
Safety and urgency come before case facts
If a caller describes immediate danger, the call directs them to emergency services in plain language and never promises that help has been sent. A behavioral-health crisis gets the 988 crisis line rather than another intake question. Custody, court today and a closing filing deadline are classified as urgent and raise an alert, instead of sitting in a list behind a fender-bender from last March.
A texted secure form only your firm can open
Callers who would rather type get a one-time link by text, with their separate permission, to a short bilingual form that accepts up to ten photos or documents. Everything is locked on their own device before it leaves it, with a key only your firm holds, and lands in storage your firm owns. We keep a receipt and a fingerprint proving nothing changed in transit, and never the answers, the file names, the contents, or the key. Like the phone line, this stays off until your firm's storage and key-recovery evidence is accepted.
A structured case record, not a message slip
What reaches your firm is one record: parties and their roles, contact details the caller confirmed aloud, incident timing, the facts in the caller's own words, the urgency classification, consent with the exact disclosure version, and the language used. It is delivered signed and with retries, so a receiving system that was down for ten minutes gets it when it comes back, exactly once, not four times.
Conflict checks that speak up and never block you
Opening a matter automatically searches your contact book and every party on every prior matter, and writes the result onto the matter. Adding an adverse party runs it again, and editing a contact's name flows straight into the search. Hits are shown loudly and prominently, and they never stop you from proceeding. Whether a hit is a real conflict is a legal judgment, and that judgment stays with the attorney.
Matters that open with the work already listed
A new matter can seed the standard opening checklist for its practice area, with priorities and due dates computed from the open date. Injury matters get preservation-of-evidence letters, carrier notice of representation and medical records requests. Defense matters get arraignment calendaring, discovery requests, custody and bond-condition review, and video and bodycam preservation requests. The items are administrative on purpose: the product drafts workflow, never legal strategy. One checkbox turns the checklist off.
One calendar, with the statute date on it
Court dates, deadlines, meetings and statute-of-limitations dates live on one firm-wide calendar and on each matter. Anything within ninety days of a statute date is flagged on the dashboard. Any event can create its own reminder one to ninety days ahead. Finished hearings are marked done and drop off the calendar and the download. The whole thing downloads into the calendar app you already use, as a plain file rather than a standing feed credential.
Time and expenses that add up correctly
Time goes in as minutes and a rate; money is kept in whole cents under one rounding rule, so nothing drifts by a penny an entry and then by real money over a year. Leave the rate blank and it uses that staff member's rate from your own registry. Unbilled work can be written off from the matter page, which permanently excludes it from billing and releases the matter to close.
Invoices you cannot overpay, and a close that will not lose money
One action generates an invoice from every unbilled entry on a matter, or across every open matter at once with created and skipped counts shown. Draft becomes sent becomes paid; payments are accepted only on sent invoices and can never exceed the balance. Voiding an unpaid invoice puts its entries back in play. A matter will not close while trust money is held, work is unbilled, or an invoice is outstanding, and it lists every blocker at once.
Client trust money with two locks on the door
The trust ledger is per matter and append-only. A disbursement is checked against that matter's balance while the matter row is held, then checked again independently in the database before the row is written. That was proven on the live database with two parallel disbursement attempts against a single balance, where exactly one was allowed to land, and with a direct write attempted around the application, which was refused. Corrections are new offsetting entries, never edits to history.
Notes that cannot be quietly rewritten
Privileged notes are append-only. An attempt to change or delete one is refused outright, so a correction is a follow-up note with its own timestamp and the original stays visible. If a file is ever examined, the record shows what was written and when, not a tidied-up version of it.
Letters, statements, reports and exports
Engagement letters draft per matter in English or Spanish, with the fee terms for that billing type, retainer language when a minimum is set, and signature blocks. Invoices print as clean statements. Billing shows receivables aged into thirty, sixty, ninety and older buckets, plus what was billed and collected this month. Trust reconciles per account with the total computed from the per-matter rows, so the report cannot disagree with itself. Matters, per-matter work and the trust ledger export to spreadsheet files.
A phone app for the person who is not at a desk
Firm staff can check intake activity from an app on their phone. It requires your firm's own credentials, keeps the session locked to that device, and shows only your firm's records. Screenshots are blocked in the released build, no records are cached to files or photos, and a copied phone number or detail clears itself off the clipboard after sixty seconds, even if you rotate the phone or switch language in between.
Proof
Numbers we can stand behind.
Every figure below comes from the product's own release record or test suite, not from a marketing estimate.
- The gates are published rather than glossed. The live service states on its own homepage that voice intake is still in controlled setup, and the repository states plainly that source availability does not mean intake is approved for public caller traffic.
Where it runs
Surfaces and status.
Status as of 2026-09-02. intake.autosecurelogin.com answered on 2026-09-02 and reports version 1.19.0, which also appears in the footer of every public page and matches the version this repository builds. All ten public pages return normally in both English and Spanish, and the firm sign-in page is up and responding. The practice modules in this release passed a 17-of-17 check run against the live database, with earlier 19-check and 15-check drills recorded alongside it. The live homepage states in its own words that voice intake remains in controlled setup until a participating firm and telephone number are approved, and the service's capability report shows the secure web form and its text invitations switched off. No firm has signed yet. Firms come on one at a time: your workspace is provisioned for you, and the phone-intake half is switched on for your firm only after supervised English and Spanish call testing.

Recent progress.
This product ships often. The most recent verified changes, newest first.
the firm phone app was rebuilt natively and signed as version 0.7.0, with six defects found and fixed after physical-device acceptance testing, including a clipboard auto-clear that used to break if you rotated the phone or switched language after copying. The signed build has not been submitted to any app store.
two defects that would have made every encrypted upload fail were found by running the firm-storage acceptance drill for real, then fixed and deployed.
the product expanded from intake into running the whole practice, across five documented releases from 1.15.0 to 1.19.0. Matters, conflict checks, calendar and statute warnings, tasks, time and expenses, invoicing, append-only trust accounting and privileged notes landed first, verified by a seventeen-check drill that included two parallel trust disbursements against one balance and a direct write refused by the database; then guarded matter closing, printable statements, receivables aging, trust reconciliation, retainer minimums and calendar export; then write-offs, engagement letters and spreadsheet exports, along with four gaps an adversarial review found and closed, including a crafted request that could have pointed a money row at another firm's account; then practice-area opening checklists, event reminders, batch monthly billing and a read-only API for the phone app, proven with a real credential that was then revoked and confirmed dead; and finally a firm-wide Tasks page, event completion, contact editing, a client-funds panel on every matter and staff-default time rates. The last of those passed 17 of 17 live checks. The live service reports version 1.19.0.
Pricing
Pricing for ASL Intake is quoted after a short conversation about your situation, because the right scope differs from one team to the next. There is no charge for that conversation.
Ask about pricingQuestions buyers ask
Straight answers.
What does it cost?
There is no published price. ASL Intake is being brought to firms one at a time, and terms are agreed with each firm as part of onboarding, alongside who owns what data, how long it is kept, and how it gets deleted. If you want a number before you invest any time, ask for one first. We would rather quote you than run you through a demonstration you cannot act on.
We already use a case-management system. Why would we switch?
You may not need to, at least not at first. The half you cannot really buy elsewhere is the front door: a line that answers in English or Spanish at eleven at night, screens for danger and deadlines, and hands you a structured record instead of a voicemail. The practice side is there when you want the matter, calendar, time and trust in the same place the call came from. One thing to plan around honestly: there is no bulk import from another system, so a full move today means entering your open matters rather than pressing a button.
What happens to our data if we stop paying or walk away?
Your matters, per-matter work and full trust ledger export to spreadsheet files from inside the product on any day, not only on the way out, and the calendar downloads as a file your calendar app already reads. The encrypted intake submissions were never ours to hold: they sit in storage your firm owns under a key your firm holds, so leaving changes nothing about them. Deletion and retention rules are written into your agreement before any real client information is collected.
Can your company read what our callers tell you?
For the texted secure form, no, and not because of a policy. The caller's device locks the answers and attachments before they leave it, with a key only your firm holds, and they go to storage your firm owns. We keep a receipt that a submission arrived, how many files came with it, and a fingerprint proving nothing was altered. Voice intake is different and we will not blur it: a call transcript and its structured record live in your firm's isolated area of our system, which is exactly why the retention and access rules for that path are agreed with you in writing before calls open.
Is this actually ready, or are we the ones who find out?
Be clear-eyed about which half. The service is running and reports version 1.19.0, and the practice workspace is working today: it passed a seventeen-check run against the live database for this release, after nineteen-check and fifteen-check drills before it, including two simultaneous trust disbursements against one balance where exactly one was allowed to land. The phone line is the part that is deliberately gated, and the live site says so itself: voice intake stays in controlled setup until a participating firm and number are approved. No firm has signed yet, so you would be early. The supervised window exists so that the finding-out happens with us watching rather than on a real caller.
What stops the trust account from being overdrawn?
Two independent refusals. When a disbursement is requested, the matter row is held and the amount is checked against that matter's balance, and then the write itself is checked again in the database before it is allowed. Both were tested on the live database, including two parallel requests against the same balance where exactly one landed, and a direct write attempted around the application, which was refused. The ledger is append-only, so a correction is a new offsetting entry and the original stays visible.
Will the assistant give our callers legal advice or take a case?
No, and it says so out loud. Every call opens by stating that it is an automated assistant, that the call is transcribed and shared only with the firm, that this is not legal advice, and that nothing about the call makes anyone your client. It collects facts for attorney review. Whether the firm can help, whether there is a conflict, and what a case is worth are decisions it never makes and never implies.
Our Spanish-speaking callers are half our business. How good is the Spanish really?
Bilingual at the wording level, not the button level. The safety lead-in, emergency direction, crisis-line referral, consent, urgency, confirmation, voicemail and closing all exist as reviewed U.S. Spanish rather than machine translation of English, and callers can switch languages mid-call. Names, phone digits, dates and legal facts stay exactly as given, and the assistant will not pretend to understand a language it does not support or act as a certified interpreter. Before Spanish calls open for your firm, a fluent reviewer confirms the wording carries the same meaning as the English.
Who at our firm can see what?
Everyone who signs in sees your firm's records and only your firm's records; a request pointed at another firm's data is refused rather than quietly returning nothing. Today sign-in is per firm rather than per person, using your firm's own access key, with staff records used for assignment, rates and conflict history. Per-person sign-in is planned and does not require the underlying records to change, so it is worth deciding now who holds the credential.
What happens if something goes wrong during a call?
Your firm keeps its own fallback. The line is configured with your transfer and voicemail behavior, and the assistant will not claim a transfer it cannot complete or a message it did not take. Completed intakes are delivered signed and with retries, so a receiving system that was offline for ten minutes gets the record when it comes back, once.
Why does the live site say ASL Direct?
Same product. The public service has carried the ASL Direct name on the site and in the running service, and it is written up as ASL Intake in the repository that builds it. Nothing about the service changes between the two names. If it matters for how you refer to us in an engagement letter, ask and we will put the exact name in writing.
What should I know before I rely on it?
We would rather you hear this from us than discover it later. As of 2026-09-02:
- The phone intake and the texted secure form are built, deployed and drill-tested, but they stay switched off for a firm until supervised English and Spanish call testing is run with that firm and its approvals are recorded. The live service says this on its own homepage. It means your first weeks are the practice side plus setup rather than live calls on day one.
- No law firm has signed yet. You would be an early firm, and the supervised setup period exists because of that.
- We do not hold your key for the encrypted intake form. That is the point of the design, and the consequence is real: if your firm loses its own key and its recovery copies, nobody, including us, can open those submissions. Keep at least two protected copies before the first live link goes out.
- Sign-in is per firm, not yet per person. Staff records exist for assignment, rates and conflict history, but everyone at your firm signs in with the firm's own access key. Per-person sign-in is planned and does not require the underlying records to change.
- The phone app shows intake activity today. Matters, time, billing and trust are on the web workspace, not yet in the app, and the app deliberately cannot decrypt or export a caller's encrypted submission.
- The iPhone and iPad app is written but is not signed and is not distributed.
- There is no bulk import from another case-management system. Matters and contacts are entered directly or arrive through intake.
- Trust accounting is a strict ledger with hard overdraft protection. It is not connected to your bank and does not reconcile against a bank feed; the reconciliation report reconciles the ledger against itself.
- Invoices record a payment and its method. There is no card processing built in, so you take the money the way you take it today.
- The guided intake script covers personal injury and criminal defense. Matters can be opened under eleven practice areas, but the spoken and typed intake questions stay focused on those two until a firm helps validate more.
Never lose another case to a missed call.
Answer every caller in English or Spanish, then run the whole matter to closing.
