TLDR: At its inaugural Kaleidoscope conference, 8am, formerly AffiniPay, announced significant platform upgrades including new AI-powered tools like ‘Chat with Cases’ for MyCase, enhanced integration with NetDocuments, and customizable reporting. These innovations aim to simplify operations and improve efficiency for legal, accounting, and other professional services firms, marking a strategic evolution into a unified business platform.
AUSTIN, Texas – September 3, 2025 – 8am, the professional business platform tailored for legal, accounting, and client-focused professionals, today unveiled a suite of new solution upgrades and strategic integrations at its inaugural Kaleidoscope conference. The announcements, delivered live from Austin, highlight the company’s commitment to leveraging artificial intelligence and unified platforms to streamline professional workflows.
Leslie Witt, Chief Product Officer at 8am, emphasized the company’s vision, stating, “Our goal is to bring powerful simplicity to how professionals run their firms. Modern work tools should reduce complexity, not create it. These updates to the 8am solution suite reflect our evolution into a unified platform, designed to deliver an intuitive experience that professionals can rely on to navigate everyday challenges of managing their business.”
Central to the new offerings is the introduction of 8am IQ, an initiative designed to embed AI capabilities across all 8am solutions. A prime example is the ‘Chat with Cases’ feature, now in beta for MyCase customers. This innovative AI tool allows users to interact with their case data and documents by asking questions, drastically reducing the time spent on searching and review from hours to mere seconds.
Further enhancing its ecosystem, 8am announced a new, embedded integration between NetDocuments and 8am MyCase. This integration provides firms with a robust method to store, manage, and collaborate on documents directly within MyCase, eliminating the need to switch between platforms. Legal teams will benefit from AI-powered search and filtering, comprehensive document version control, and co-authoring capabilities, all designed to boost efficiency.
For MyCase users, the platform also introduces customizable reporting, addressing a critical pain point for mid-sized firms that often find existing reporting tools rigid and fragmented. This new feature offers greater visibility into practice health and growth, empowering firms to make more informed, data-driven business decisions.
