Ajax review
A strong fit for firms automating desktop time capture and billing workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Ajax is an AI-powered legal timekeeping application for law firms that want to capture billable work without relying on manual timers or end-of-day reconstruction. Its desktop software records activity across applications, documents, email, browsers, calls, calendars, and collaboration tools, then groups related work by legal matter. Attorneys can review and edit entries, add manual time, and manage matter and activity-code selection. It is best suited to Windows and Mac firms seeking automated matter tracking and billing preparation.
The standout feature is passive capture across the desktop. Ajax can identify related work, detect time away from the desk, exclude selected activity, and use AI to draft client-ready narratives. Smart merge and split tools help refine entries before release, while outside counsel guidelines and custom narrative rules support firm-specific billing requirements. This approach is a strong match for firms that want to recover fragmented work across multiple applications; firms that prefer mobile or browser-based timekeeping should look elsewhere.
Ajax connects with Clio, MyCase, Filevine, PracticePanther, SurePoint, Centerbase, Actionstep, and Soluno. Billing rates, matters, and codes can synchronize with connected systems, and reviewed entries can be released with one click. According to the published pricing details, pricing is per seat, quoted after a demo, and sold through annual contracts. A 14-day free trial is available, but there is no free plan. Choose Ajax for desktop-first capture, AI narratives, and guideline-aware billing workflows; choose another option if transparent self-serve pricing or broader platform coverage is essential.
