The opportunity

The research on solo practice is sobering — and eye-opening.

Attorneys bill 2.6 hours of an 8-hour day. Solo utilization runs at 26%. Fourteen percent of billable hours never get invoiced. Ten percent of what is billed never gets collected.

The tools designed to fix this problem charge $89/month before you get the features that actually matter. Built for 200-attorney firms, priced accordingly.

Writly was built for you. Simple on purpose. Priced for solo practice. Designed around how one person actually runs a firm.

What Writly does

The tools you'll actually use.

You don't need 200 features. You need time tracking that's fast enough to use in the moment, billing that gets invoices out the door, and matter management that keeps everything findable. That's what Writly is built around.

Capture every billable hour

Pre-planned task lists are billing prompts in disguise. Writly's matter workflows make sure you're logging the time you're already working. Attorneys who track contemporaneously bill 25–40% more.

Simple on purpose

Smokeball takes months to learn. Clio's interface grows more complex every year. Writly is designed to be set up in a weekend, not a quarter — because your time is better spent practicing law.

Built for one (or a few)

Every feature assumes you're the attorney, admin, billing department, and IT team. Because 97% of solo practitioners are. Writly doesn't require a paralegal to implement or a tech consultant to maintain.

Get paid faster

Automated invoice reminders capture 15–20% more revenue each month. Online payments mean you're paid twice as fast. Your billing workflow shouldn't be the thing that slows your cash flow.

Open and connectable

Works with the AI tools, calendar, email, and cloud storage you already use. MCP support means Claude can query your Writly data directly. No vendor lock-in. Your data is always yours.

Trust accounting included

IOLTA/trust accounting built in from day one — not bolted on as an expensive add-on. Manage trust transfers, track balances, and stay compliant without a separate tool or subscription.

The research is unambiguous

"Attorneys who track time contemporaneously bill 25–40% more than those who reconstruct it later."

Thomson Reuters Small Firm Survey — and the reason we built Writly's billing workflow the way we did.

Pricing

One price. Everything included.

At $17/month, Writly costs less than one billable hour. We built the pricing around that reality — not around enterprise sales targets.
