Screen prospective clients faster, with legal intake intelligence
Paprika helps law firms collect structured intake information from online forms and phone conversations, generate an initial triage recommendation, and preserve attorney judgment at the center of the decision.
A prospective client begins intake online or by phone
Prospective clients can share the facts of their matter through a structured form or a guided phone conversation. Either path helps the firm collect useful information before staff time is spent on the initial screening process.
A client completes a structured form on their own time, giving the firm a clear written record of the information needed for early review.
A prospective client can call and describe their situation naturally while the intake assistant guides the conversation and captures relevant details.

Paprika organizes the matter
The system organizes the intake information into a reviewable record and places the submission into the firm’s tentative queue for faster screening.
The firm gets an initial triage view
Paprika provides a tentative recommendation with a justification so the firm can review the matter more clearly and decide whether it deserves closer attention.
Attorneys remain in control
The recommendation is not a legal decision. Lawyers and staff remain in charge, using Paprika as a workflow aid while preserving attorney judgment at the center of the process.
Why Paprika exists
For many firms, intake is one of the most important operational bottlenecks in the business. The first conversation determines whether a matter is worth pursuing, whether the facts are even clear enough to evaluate, and whether scarce attention is being allocated well.
Paprika’s vision is to make that stage more structured, more legible, and more useful. Rather than replacing legal judgment, the goal is to create a better foundation for it.
That means helping firms gather relevant information, organize that information cleanly, and support early decision-making in a way that is practical for real legal workflows.
Core idea
The best legal technology does not force lawyers to become technologists. It should quietly improve the quality of the workflow they already care about.
Paprika is being built around that principle: help firms evaluate potential matters more clearly and more efficiently, while preserving the central role of attorney judgment.
What the product is designed to support

Intake is sensitive. The experience should feel measured, clear, and worthy of the professional context in which it lives.
