Use your own AI assistant with Squire™

Ask Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant about your matters, deadlines and contracts in Squire - read-only until you allow more, and only the matters you choose.

You may already ask an AI assistant to help you think, write and plan. Connect it to Squire and it can answer from your own practice: what is due this week across your matters, whether the supply agreement has been signed, what happened on a matter while you were in court. It can keep your task list up to date as you go. And you decide exactly what it may see and do.

On Squire's Connect Claude to Squire screen, read-only permissions are already ticked; the lawyer ticks Only these matters, chooses Mokoena v Dlamini and approves. In their assistant they ask what's due this week across their matters; it calls Squire's list_my_tasks and answers with two tasks, both on Mokoena v Dlamini, each with its due date and an Open in Squire link back to the task.

Ask it about your practice

What's overdue or due this week across my matters?

Your open tasks from every matter you're on, soonest first.

Has the supply agreement been signed yet?

The contract's status, key dates, approval progress and who still has to sign.

What happened on Mokoena v Dlamini this week?

The matter's recent activity - tasks done, documents added, who did what.

Add a task to file the replying affidavit 10 court days from today.

It counts the court days and creates the task with its due date - if you've allowed it to add tasks.

Which contracts expire in the next 60 days?

From your contract repository, with dates still awaiting review flagged as such.

Show me the latest draft of the heads of argument.

The draft's current text, read-only.

  2. 2

    Sign in to Squire and choose what it may do

    It starts read-only. Tick what else it may do - add and update tasks, say - and, if you like, limit it to particular matters.

  3. 3

    Ask away

    The assistant appears under Settings › API Keys as a connected app. Disconnect it there whenever you want.

Your firm stays in control

  • Read-only to start. An assistant can change nothing until you tick what it may do, and you can choose read-only for good.
  • Only the matters you choose. Limit a connection to particular matters and it reaches nothing outside them - in every list and every search.
  • It sees what you see, never more. Every request is checked against your own access, so a private matter stays private.
  • Your records, not Squire's AI. The assistant reads and updates records. It can't ask Squire's AI anything, and approving, signing and editing drafts stay in Squire, with a person.
  • Its changes are attributed. Tasks it adds, completes or comments on show as yours, made through the assistant.
  • Admins decide. Owners and admins can allow assistants and API keys, API keys only, or neither - for the whole organization, in its security settings.
  • Your security rules still apply. If your organization requires two-step sign-in, a connection needs it too, and leaving the organization disconnects every one.

Worth knowing: what the assistant reads leaves Squire and is handled under your own agreement with that assistant's provider, not under Squire's no-training terms or its pseudonymisation. Connect only assistants your firm permits for client information.

What it can work with

35 tools, each needing a permission you grant. Everything is the same information you can see in Squire yourself - no more.

  • One matter's details: client, status, jurisdictions, parent and sub-matters
  • A matter's parent and immediate sub-matters
  • What has happened on a matter lately, and who did it
  • Context, corrections and answers the team has recorded on a matter

For your own scripts and agents

Your own agents can use the same MCP tools, and matters, tasks, notes and files are also available over a REST API. Both use API keys you create under Settings › API Keys: each holds only the permissions you give it, can be limited to particular matters, and can be revoked at any time. Read the API reference (sign-in required).
