The firm, which has circa 400 lawyers and 15 offices across Central and Eastern Europe, Southeast Europe and Central Asia selected Laurel earlier this year and is due to begin rolling it out in the first part of Autumn. Kinstellar rolls out cloud finance system Aderant Sierra in the second part of Autumn, which is an upgrade of its existing finance system. The selection process for both began this year, delivering on a hugely ambitious timescale. Speaking to Legal IT Insider, Rob Morris, chief growth and transformation officer at Kinstellar's parent company Aapogee, who was brought in at the start of the year, said: "We looked at the incumbent time recording system in Sierra and we also looked at a bunch of the other ones and the different ways you can use Laurel is just phenomenal. We're using it primarily just to focus on the billable side of things and have an improved experience for the lawyers so they can record time differently. But we see all sorts of potential benefits in terms of how we see usage of our applications, how we drive adoption, and how we get the ROI on AI tools." Morris says that the firm's priority right now "is to drive commercial excellence, improve our time to cash cycle quite significantly, so we can do better, and improve reporting to the to clients." The hope is that Laurel will also save a huge amount of time for lawyers. Morris says: "At the moment, a lawyer's biggest pain point is how it takes a few hours a day to record my timesheet. And this will take it down to 10, 20 minutes, because it does it for them." Also leading the transformation drive at Kinstellar is digital transformation and legaltech innovation group head Ivan Rašić, who says of Laurel: "One of the leading reasons also why we selected them was the simplicity and the way they plug into the day-to-day workflow of our lawyers. They just select their toolkit, say, 'Okay, these are the five tools we predominantly use day in and day out' and then Laurel will pick up just the activity from those tools, giving you full control to evaluate what you did in the end of the day." Behind the project, Morris says there is a "whole commercial excellence programme of work around how are we going to improve billing as a result of this? How are we going to improve collections? How are we going to improve our client reporting? How do we improve pricing or legal project management to improve both the lawyer experience and also the client so that we can have price certainty." Laurel AI, which started life as Time by Ping, was founded in 2016 by Ryan Alshak and given one of its first breaks by Mishcon's legaltech incubator MDR Lab. It raised $100m in August and is focusing its attention on helping organisations to maps time to business outcomes (see article below.) Emil Dyrvig, chief revenue officer at Laurel said: "We're proud to partner with Kinstellar. At Laurel, we help firms see exactly where time goes and what their technology investments return. Kinstellar is doing that across every office at once rather than one market at a time. Together, we're giving fee earners their time back and their leadership one clear picture of how the firm works."

Laurel and Dayshape partner to help professional services firms tackle hidden revenue leakage and operational blind spots. Jun 2, 2026 New partnership connects AI-powered resource planning with automated time capture as firms struggle with visibility into capacity, profitability and delivery risk Laurel, the work intelligence platform for professional services, and Dayshape, the AI-powered resource management platform trusted by Big Four and top-tier professional services firms globally, have announced a partnership to help firms identify and eliminate revenue leakage. The partnership brings together Dayshape's AI-powered resource planning platform with Laurel's automated work intelligence technology, giving businesses a clearer view of how work is planned, delivered and billed across the organization. Laurel automatically captures work activity across meetings, emails, documents and digital workflows, reducing reliance on manual time entry and improving the accuracy of operational and financial data. That data feeds directly into Dayshape's real-time resource planning and project financial features, enabling firms to make smarter decisions around staffing, profitability, pricing and delivery risk - before issues impact the bottom line. Dayshape customers typically see a 5% increase in utilization, while Laurel users capture an average of 28 additional minutes per day. Both report profit increases 11% - together, the potential is even greater. Where most scheduling tools assign the best available person to each role one at a time, Dayshape's AI evaluates the entire organization simultaneously, identifying the optimal allocation across all engagements. Laurel captures what actually happens - automatically recording professional time and generating accurate work intelligence that firms can use to bill precisely and manage engagements more profitably. Together, the platforms deliver an end-to-end view of resourcing economics, helping firms identify margin leakage earlier, improve forecasting accuracy and maximize billable utilization across teams. By connecting how work is planned with how it is actually performed, firms can make decisions based on real project performance - not incomplete timesheet data. The partnership comes at a critical time for the industry. Professional services firms are under increasing pressure to improve productivity and profitability. Dayshape's research* shows 42% of firms missed revenue targets last year, while only 25% of leaders say they feel confident in their organisation's ability to plan long term. Two thirds (38% of firms lack clear visibility into team capacity and availability and a similar number (37%) lack real-time profitability insight by team or project. Through this partnership Dayshape and Laurel will address visibility and time keeping friction points, reducing potential impact on the bottom line. The partnership also strengthens the capabilities of each platform. Dayshape's scheduling data gives Laurel richer context for matching captured time to the right matters and engagements. Laurel's verified time actuals make Dayshape's plan-versus-actual reporting more accurate, improving every utilization report and engagement financial the platform surfaces. Both companies serve the world's leading professional services firms and are part of the Microsoft and Workday partner networks, simplifying joint deployment for customers. Matt Cockett, CEO of Dayshape says: "What Dayshape does so well is provide a forward-looking view of a business enabling companies to plan optimally and course correct as they go. Laurel ensures every minute of work is captured accurately, without adding any extra effort for teams. We know that time data in professional services has historically been difficult to manage. Laurel's technology means that it doesn't need to be - which is exactly why this partnership makes sense." Ryan Alshak, CEO and Co-Founder of Laurel, says: "Most firms know they have a data problem. They just don't know how bad it is until they fix it. Laurel gives firms an accurate picture of how time is actually being spent and what it's producing. Connecting it with Dayshape's scheduling and revenue engine means customers finally have the planning layer and the execution layer talking to each other." Together, the platforms attack margin from both directions. Dayshape prevents leakage at the point of resourcing decisions. Laurel recovers it at the execution layer. Firms running both gain control over the full margin picture. *https://dayshape.com/guides/inside-the-leadership-growth-agenda
