Why Zoom + Smokeball?

The Problem
Every Zoom call with clients, opposing counsel, or court staff is potential billable time—but manually logging call details, duration, and notes into Smokeball is tedious and error-prone. Attorneys and paralegals lose 30-60 minutes daily on call documentation, and calls without notes mean lost revenue and compliance gaps.
The Solution
Call Connector automatically captures every Zoom call and creates a Fee in Smokeball with complete details: participants, duration, timestamp, and direction. When you record calls in Zoom, you also get AI-powered transcripts tuned for legal terminology—searchable and ready for review. If the contact has an associated matter, everything links automatically.
The Result
Complete call documentation without the data entry. Your team recovers hours weekly for billable work. Smokeball becomes your single source of truth for all client communications, with every Zoom call automatically preserved for billing and compliance.
