Technical and migration considerations.
Why do custom-quoted per-lead or staffing models increase overhead?
When intake costs depend on staffing tiers or per-lead fees, scaling to thousands of claimants increases overhead with each inquiry. An autonomous software platform provides predictable fixed costs regardless of submission volume.
Does OBE integrate with our existing case management system?
Yes. OBE supports native webhooks and bidirectional synchronization with Clio, Filevine, Litify, and Lead Docket, streaming qualified files and executed retainers directly into existing firm pipelines.
