• The Challenges We Solve
Familiar problems. Proven solutions.
mid-sized legal and financial services firms – and we’ve seen these
challenges first-hand across both sectors.
- Operations
- Critical processes still rely on manual steps, paper, email and spreadsheets - creating delays for internal teams and clients
- Operational bottlenecks reduce team productivity and slow client service delivery
- Repetitive administrative work consumes capacity that should be focused on higher-value activity
- IT transformation has been promised before and rarely materialised into tangible operational improvement
- Growth is still largely dependent on adding headcount rather than scaling smarter processes
How we help
Our agentic AI and workflow automation solutions replace manual steps with intelligent, auditable workflows – freeing your team to focus on work that matters. Delivered on Microsoft Power Platform and Nintex, results are measurable and disruption is minimal.
- Risk & Compliance
- Manual processes create inconsistency, weak audit trails and unnecessary risk exposure across the business
- Automation and AI initiatives can move faster than existing governance frameworks can accommodate
- There are legitimate concerns around data security, permissions and policy compliance
- Evidencing that customer data is held securely and accurately for regulatory reporting is increasingly complex
- Risk teams are expected to balance enabling innovation with maintaining appropriate controls
How we help
Our compliance automation and AI risk management solutions are designed with governance at their core. We engage your risk and compliance stakeholders throughout delivery – so frameworks keep pace with AI adoption and every automated action is logged, auditable and reportable.
• Use Cases
What agentic AI looks like in your firm
compliance and risk teams – built on Microsoft, delivered by
jaam automation.
Legal Workflow Automation
Contract Lifecycle Management
THE PROBLEM
Contract creation, review and approval is slow, email-driven and difficult to track – creating risk and delaying deals.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An agentic AI workflow drafts contracts from pre-approved templates, flags non-standard clauses for legal review and routes approvals automatically – with every step logged.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Microsoft Power Platform and SharePoint, with AI clause extraction via Azure AI – fully within your Microsoft tenant.
EXAMPLE
A mid-sized law firm reduces contract turnaround from 8 days to under 48 hours by replacing email-based review with an intelligent workflow.
- ✓ Automated contract creation from approved templates
- ✓ AI clause extraction and risk flagging
- ✓ Approval workflow routing and escalation
- ✓ Full audit trail and version control
Legal Process Automation
Matter Intake & Triage
THE PROBLEM
New legal matters arrive by email, phone and form with no consistent process – leading to delays, missed items and no client visibility.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An intelligent intake agent classifies incoming matters by type, urgency and team, automatically creates matter records, assigns them to the right fee earner and triggers client acknowledgement.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Microsoft Power Platform with Microsoft Copilot Studio agents integrated into your practice management or SharePoint environment.
EXAMPLE
A financial services legal team cuts matter intake processing time by 70% and eliminates the reliance on a shared inbox as the primary triage mechanism.
- ✓ Smart intake forms with auto-classification
- ✓ Automatic matter assignment by type and team
- ✓ Status tracking and automated client communication

Legal AI Tools
Correspondence & Communication AI
THE PROBLEM
High volumes of inbound correspondence consume legal team capacity – with no consistent process for classification, prioritisation or response.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An AI co-pilot reads, classifies and prioritises inbound correspondence, drafts appropriate responses for review and logs all interactions to the relevant matter record automatically.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Microsoft Copilot Studio with Power Automate and Exchange integration – working natively within your Microsoft 365 environment.
EXAMPLE
A legal operations team handles 40% more correspondence volume without increasing headcount, with every interaction automatically logged to matter records in SharePoint.
- ✓ Email classification and auto-routing
- ✓ AI-drafted response templates for review
- ✓ Priority flagging for urgent items
Intelligent Automation
Client Onboarding & KYC Automation
THE PROBLEM
Client onboarding is manual, fragmented across systems and slows revenue realisation – while KYC and AML checks create compliance bottlenecks.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An end-to-end onboarding automation collects client documentation, triggers AI-assisted verification, runs automated compliance checks and routes final sign-off – reducing days of coordination to hours.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Power Platform with Azure AI for document verification, connected to your CRM and compliance systems via Microsoft Dataverse.
EXAMPLE
A financial advisory firm cuts onboarding time from 10 working days to under 3, with full compliance documentation automatically generated and stored in SharePoint.
- ✓ Intelligent document collection and AI verification
- ✓ Automated KYC and AML checks
- ✓ Compliance sign-off routing and audit logging

HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
Intelligent transaction monitoring flags anomalies automatically, creates investigation cases, assigns them to the right team and tracks resolution – with full audit trail maintained throughout.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Azure AI and Power Platform, with investigation workflows in Power Automate and case records stored in SharePoint – all within your Microsoft tenant.
EXAMPLE

Financial Services Automation
Expense Management & Approvals
THE PROBLEM
Expense processing is slow, policy is inconsistently applied and relies heavily on manual finance team intervention – creating overhead and occasional compliance failures.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An intelligent expense workflow captures receipts, extracts data via AI, validates spend against policy automatically and routes approvals based on amount, category and employee level.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Power Platform with AI Builder for receipt processing, integrated with your finance systems and Microsoft Teams for approvals.
EXAMPLE
A 400-person financial services firm reduces expense processing time from 5 days to same-day, with policy compliance enforced at point of submission.
- ✓ Receipt capture and AI data extraction
- ✓ Automated policy compliance checking

Compliance Automation
Incident & Complaint Handling
THE PROBLEM
Incidents and complaints are managed inconsistently across email and spreadsheets – with poor visibility, no clear escalation path and weak evidence for regulators.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An intelligent incident management workflow classifies incoming incidents by type and severity, routes them to the right team, enforces mandatory timelines and generates regulator-ready reports automatically.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Power Platform with SharePoint as the system of record and Power BI for compliance reporting dashboards – no additional tooling required.
EXAMPLE
A compliance team replaces a shared inbox and multiple spreadsheets with a single structured workflow, cutting incident resolution time by 45%.
- ✓ Intelligent incident intake and severity classification
- ✓ Automated escalation based on type and timeline

AI Risk Management
Policy & Governance Management
THE PROBLEM
Policies are stored in disparate locations, review cycles are missed and evidencing staff acknowledgement for regulatory purposes is time-consuming and unreliable.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
A centralised policy governance automation manages the full policy lifecycle – publishing, notifying staff, tracking acknowledgements, scheduling reviews and producing compliance dashboards – with no manual chasing required.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on SharePoint and Power Automate, with acknowledgement tracking in Microsoft Forms and compliance reporting via Power BI – all native Microsoft, no new systems.
EXAMPLE
A financial services risk team goes from manually chasing policy sign-offs to 98% acknowledgement rates tracked automatically – with a real-time dashboard for board reporting.

Regulatory Change Management
THE PROBLEM
Keeping pace with regulatory change manually is resource-intensive, inconsistent and difficult to evidence – with gaps easily missed and hard to defend.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An AI-assisted regulatory change workflow monitors relevant regulatory developments, maps changes to internal controls, identifies gaps, creates remediation tasks and tracks completion.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Power Platform with AI-assisted monitoring, task management via Microsoft Planner or Dataverse and audit evidence stored in SharePoint.
EXAMPLE
A compliance team at a 250-person financial services firm manages a regulatory change programme across four jurisdictions through a single structured workflow, replacing 6 separate spreadsheets.
- ✓ Regulatory update monitoring and alerting
- ✓ Control mapping and gap analysis workflow
- ✓ Remediation task assignment and tracking

Document Automation
Autonomous Document Intelligence
THE PROBLEM
Unstructured documents arrive in multiple formats and are manually sorted, classified and distributed – consuming significant team time and introducing error.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An autonomous document intelligence agent ingests documents in any format, classifies them by type and content, extracts key data fields and triggers the appropriate downstream workflow – without human intervention for routine documents.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Azure AI Document Intelligence and Power Platform, integrated with SharePoint as the document repository – within your Microsoft tenant.
EXAMPLE
A legal operations team processes inbound client documents 80% faster, with AI handling classification and data extraction automatically and only exceptions routed to human review.

- ✓ Intelligent classification and automatic routing
- ✓ Key data extraction and structured summarisation
- ✓ Downstream workflow triggering based on document type
AI Contract Review
Contract Review & Risk Extraction
THE PROBLEM
Reviewing contracts for non-standard terms, missing clauses and risk positions is time-consuming – and inconsistently applied across the team.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An AI contract review agent analyses incoming contracts against your standard template, flags deviations and risk clauses, assigns a risk rating and presents a structured review output – turning hours of review into minutes.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built on Azure OpenAI and Power Platform, with outputs delivered into SharePoint and integrated with your existing matter management process.
EXAMPLE
A mid-sized law firm’s legal team reviews supplier contracts 65% faster, with AI surfacing the clauses that matter – and lawyers spending their time on negotiation rather than document reading.
- ✓ Clause identification and structured extraction
- ✓ Risk and deviation flagging against standard templates
- ✓ AI risk rating and review summary generation
- ✓ Integration with matter management and SharePoint
AI Audit Trail
Secure Document Lifecycle Management
THE PROBLEM
Document access, version history and retention are managed inconsistently – creating risk for compliance, regulatory inspection and data security.
HOW AN AI AGENT HELPS
An intelligent document lifecycle management system applies role-based access controls, automates retention scheduling, enforces archiving policies and maintains a complete queryable audit trail of every document action.
HOW IT RUNS ON MICROSOFT
Built natively on SharePoint with Microsoft Purview for compliance and retention management and Entra ID for access control – no additional platforms required.
EXAMPLE
A financial services firm passes a regulatory inspection with ease, producing a complete access and version history for any document within minutes – replacing a process that previously took days to compile manually.
