Billable hours win every time

When did a partner last have a free afternoon for business development?

Your lawyers bill in six-minute units. Writing to the HR manager of a growing logistics company never makes the timesheet, so new commercial work waits on word of mouth. MAX, Sevenfold’s AI lead generator, takes that job off your partners. He looks up those decision-makers, emails them from your firm’s mailbox once you approve the wording, and tells you who answers.

The people who brief commercial and employment lawyers

The people who brief commercial and employment lawyers

Build a campaign around the clients you act for: HR managers at Sydney businesses employing 51 to 200 people, say, or founders of technology businesses. Every day MAX finds new matches, all with a verified work email.

  • Narrow it by seniority, department, company size and keywords, and exclude titles you don’t want
  • One campaign per practice area, such as employment and commercial, each with its own filters
Timing signals, ranked for your partners

Timing signals, ranked for your partners

MAX ranks each lead from A to D on fit and timing. A company with job ads up, or one that recently raised money, goes to the top.

  • First emails mention the lead’s ‘why now’ signal, such as a hiring push, beside their name and company
  • Test two versions of the first email and see which earns more replies in MAX’s weekly report
Your firm signs off every word before it's sent

Your firm signs off every word before it’s sent

A law firm is careful about what goes out under its name. MAX drafts a one, three or five email sequence from your practice areas in the AI Brain. You edit or approve each one; any edit sends it back to draft.

  • Sent from your firm’s own mailbox, so answers come back to your inbox
  • Weekdays, 9am to 6pm firm time unless you change it, at least five minutes apart

Is MAX a fit for your firm?

Business clients only, by design

MAX finds people at companies. That suits commercial, employment and corporate practices. Firms that act for individuals will need another route.

Who a law firm campaign can reach

  • Founders and directors of private companies
  • HR and people managers
  • CFOs and finance managers
  • Operations managers at companies of the size you choose

Choose another route if

  • You act mainly for individuals, for example in family or personal injury law
  • You want enquiries from your website or referrers followed up
  • You need leads sent to a CRM automatically
  • You want open rates or meetings booked reported

Once companies write back

How MAX sorts the replies your firm gets

“Yes, we’d like to talk”

The lead becomes qualified. You get a hot-lead email with their name, company and email address, plus a draft reply for you to send.

“Please speak to our general counsel”

That’s a referral. MAX adds the general counsel to the same campaign as a new lead.

“We already have a firm”

An objection. The sequence stops and MAX writes a suggested response. A lawyer reads it and decides whether it’s worth sending.

“I’m not the right person”

MAX marks the lead as lost and stops writing to them. The rest of the campaign carries on.

Getting started

What your firm sets up first

  1. Turn on lead sourcing and connect a mailbox. Outlook / Microsoft 365, Gmail, Zoho Mail, or an IMAP/SMTP account your firm runs.
  2. Set the firm’s time zone. Sending then follows your local business hours.
  3. Build a campaign. Give it at least one filter, such as a job title or a city.
  4. Approve the sequence. Then the first emails go to the decision-makers on your list.

Questions & Answers

What law firm partners ask about MAX

Does MAX check that we're allowed to email these people?
No. MAX runs no consent check, and whether your firm may email someone is your firm’s call. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and on Gmail, Outlook and IMAP a one-click unsubscribe header too. Anyone who unsubscribes or replies ’not interested’ stays on your opt-out list and is never emailed by your firm again.
What does MAX cost a law firm?
AUD $38 a month on monthly billing, or AUD $29 a month when you pay yearly. MAX is part of every plan. Each lead found draws on your usage credits, and automatic lead finding only runs on an active paid plan, never during a trial.

Bring in commercial work without giving up billable hours

MAX finds company decision-makers, emails them from your mailbox once you approve, and flags who wants to talk. Ready for law firms anywhere in Australia.
