We made the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ again! This marks another incredible milestone in our journey to transform how professional services firms operate. Being recognized alongside industry pioneers is both humbling and energizing. Why this matters: Every industry understands its supply chain — except knowledge industries, which represent over 50% of global GDP. We're not just automating timekeeping; we're creating the first-ever time intelligence platform that gives professional services firms visibility into their organizational behavior. The results speak for themselves: 📈 Our customers see profit increases of 4-11% 🕰️ Professionals recover 28+ billable minutes per day 📉 80% reduction in time spent on manual time entry 💰 Over $5B in gross market value processed for our customers What drives our growth? The perfect storm of client demand for AI transparency, the shift toward outcome-based pricing, and our unique ability to map work time to business outcomes — something no company has ever done at scale. And we're just getting started. Time is the only resource you can't get back. We're here to help you reclaim it.

🚀 Exciting news today! We just launched self-serve OCG upload with AI rule extraction — and it's going to change how law firms handle compliance forever. Here's the problem we're solving: 📁 100s of OCG PDFs scattered across systems ⏰ Weeks of manual work to extract and apply rules 🗓️ Delayed corrections causing long billing cycles 💰 12-20% revenue loss from compliance-related write-downs 🔄 The same violations happening month after month Now, here's what our AI does automatically: ✅ Reads outside counsel guidelines ✅ Extracts all time-based rules ✅ Maps those rules to specific clients and matters ✅ Enforces compliance at point of entry (not weeks later) ✅ Automatically creates compliant narratives at the point of entry—and instantly notifies timekeepers if they manually draft a non-compliant narrative Reduce write-downs. Bill faster. The firms winning on realization aren't hoping for better discipline. They're automating the problem away. Check out the quick preview below. And read the full details at our blog post in the comments.

Thanks to Alexis Ohanian Sr. for spreading the word about our State of Work report 🙏

Thank you Non-Billable for covering our State of Work report 🙏 Our mission is to give professionals time back for the things that matter, and the first step in that is understanding how time is spent.

We're thrilled—and so honored—to have Igor join our board of directors 🚀

You know you’re onto something when momentum starts compounding on its own. One of our new AEs just crossed $1M ARR in a single quarter - only 4.5 months into the job 💰 Last year, our top ramped AE closed $1M for the full year... Every AE is at or ahead of ramp, the motion is clicking, and the energy across the floor is electric. Can't wait for the record to be broken again in Q4 💥 We’re adding a few additional AEs to the team. DM me if you want to come and build with us in NYC or London. Let's go Tank Lasse Eric Dwayne Sam Kourosh Ryan Danyele Alexa Lauren and the full Laurel GTM team! Ps. we also handled an office move on the last day of the quarter. Our offices do offer more than just desks :)

Folarin Okulaja this week at Future Lawyer USA, breaking down why lawyers don't have time for this sheet.

🚀 Excited to see Eric Zaarour speaking on a LegalTechTalk webinar on Oct 22nd (8AM PT / 11AM ET)! The topic: how law firms are shifting from volume to value using AI. Eric will be joined by Chris Grant from Goodwin and Komal Gupta from Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas to discuss: - Automating low-value work so lawyers can focus on what matters - Actually measuring AI's impact (not just hoping it works) - Moving toward value-based pricing models - Getting clients on board with AI-enhanced services At Laurel, we see this every day—when firms understand where their people actually spend time, they can make smarter decisions about where to deploy AI and how to prove its ROI. Register at the link in comments. Who else is thinking about this shift from billable hours to outcome-based work?

We continue to be amped to partner with Workday on changing the future of work.

Thank you Edward Hartman for your kind words on the Pearls On, Gloves Off podcast 🙏
