Standardize firm budgets with this MCP

Large engineering teams building legal tech need consistent calculation models. This MCP lets your team use the `team` tool to standardize how multi-lawyer budgets are calculated across all development environments. Developers can also run the `hourly` tool to check individual billing rates directly inside VS Code Copilot. This keeps everyone on the same page without relying on disparate spreadsheet models.

Validate client agreements in VS Code Copilot

When coding client intake workflows, you can use the `flat_fee` tool to pull standard contractual rates directly into your active workspace. For settlement features, this MCP allows Copilot to compute payouts using the `contingency` tool. It provides immediate, verifiable numbers to ensure your software handles complex financial splits accurately.

Analyze billing break-evens in your editor

Deciding whether to charge flat rates or hourly fees requires precise comparative analysis. The `fee` tool lets you run side-by-side comparisons to find the exact threshold where billing models diverge. Running this analysis directly inside your workspace using this MCP in VS Code Copilot helps you write smarter conditional logic for billing software. You get the math right before committing any code to your repository.
