## What happens after the inquiry comes in

The real difference is what happens after lead capture. Intakit is built to keep the matter moving while the client still needs guidance, reminders, and missing-item follow-through.

### 1. The intake becomes a live readiness workflow

Instead of sitting in a pipeline, the intake turns into a matter with missing items, next actions, and visible follow-through.

### 2. Client follow-through stays active

Documents, unanswered questions, and stalled completion do not rely on staff memory or manual checklists.

### 3. The attorney sees readiness, not just marketing status

The system surfaces what is missing, what is urgent, and what is ready before the file reaches the attorney.

## Why Firms Trust This Framing

- Approval-governed actions for sensitive work
- Auditability on state-changing workflow activity
- Attorney remains in control of consequential decisions

## Why Firms Choose Intakit

- Turns live intake into prepared work instead of leaving it as pipeline status
- Keeps missing items, client follow-through, and urgency visible without manual chase work
- Learns from firm feedback so the system gets sharper without adding another queue
