Document Generation & Lifecycle

DocFoundry

Generate Word and PDF documents from SQL, XML, or JSON data sources. Built-in approval workflows, multi-tier promotion, and DMS integration.

The Problem

The monthly billing run shouldn't take all day.

  • No link to the source of truth — errors are invisible until the client calls.
  • No version control — "final_v3_FINAL_use_this_one.docx" is not a system.
  • No approval gate — documents leave the firm before the partner has seen them.

Key Capabilities

Flexible Data Sources

Connect templates to SQL, XML, or JSON data — whichever fits your firm's existing systems — with full variable substitution and conditional logic.

Approval Lifecycle

Draft → Committed → Approved → Promoted workflow with multi-tier sign-off.

DMS Integration

Native integration with iManage Work 10 for direct document management system delivery.

Job Scheduling

Cron-based batch delivery for scheduled, high-volume document generation jobs.

How It Works

Three Steps. One Tool.

  1. 1

    Define your template

    Write your document once using Scriban placeholders. Bind each field to a SQL query or Clio resource.

  2. 2

    Generate on demand

    Authors run the template against live firm data. DocFoundry produces a Word or PDF document in seconds.

  3. 3

    Approve and deliver

    Reviewers approve from a central queue. Documents deliver automatically — to disk, to iManage Work 10, or by email.
