Fern has your firm's context and knowledge, and runs your workflows. It reads your mail, drafts from your templates, chases signatures, files on time and reviews the bill. You approve. Fern does the rest.
A chat tool knows the law and nothing else. Fern reads your signed documents, your inboxes and your calendar, and remembers how your firm does things. Pick a client and see what Fern already knows.
The cap table, the signed agreements, the client threads, the billing system. Fern reads all of it before it does anything.
Your templates, your names, your rules. The reminder goes on day 7 because that is when you send it. Fern learned that from you.
Not a draft to copy and paste. Fern sends, waits, chases, files and tells you when it is done. You approve the first run. Then it runs.
Each one is your firm's playbook, not a template. Press run and watch Fern work through it. The dashed step is where it stops and waits for you.
From signed RSPA to IRS receipt, on time, every time.
Every signature, every wire, every cap table line.
Board consent to signed grant, without the back and forth.
Every time entry, checked against the engagement letter.
Four documents, two signatures and a ledger update. Done by lunch.
Every client, checked against every system, before the first coffee.
Microsoft or Google, in a few minutes. Fern imports your templates. Clients keep emailing the address they already know.
It reads your matters, your signed documents and your calendar. By the end of the day it knows who owes what to whom.
Anything ambiguous waits for a human. You approve the first send of every workflow. Then it runs on its own.

In transit and at rest. Access is scoped to the people on the matter.

No seats, no usage meters. The first month is free. You pay from the month Fern is clearly saving your team time.
Bring a real matter, redacted if you like. In 30 minutes we walk it through end to end: sign, instruct, follow up, file.
