How it works

From scheduled exports to answers in three steps

01

Connect

Connect: Schedule Clio exports to Improvado by email, SFTP or S3. Choose the data scope (Lead Inbox, Matter Pipeline, billing) and Improvado loads lead entries, matter records, and conversion metrics from each export.
02

Ask

Query: Ask "Which leads are stalled in consultation?" and your agent surfaces Matter Pipeline records with extended time-in-stage, missing engagement letters, and low contact frequency from intake form data and communication logs.
03

Report

Report: Your agent flags leads by status and custom tags, recommends email templates from your library, sends follow-up lists to intake staff, and reports on matter changes across Clio Grow and Manage — all logged in the audit trail.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Improvado connect to Clio?
Improvado connects to Clio through scheduled exports: your team exports the data scope you need (Lead Inbox, Matter Pipeline, billing records), and the files reach Improvado automatically by email, SFTP or S3. Improvado can load historical lead and matter data to analyze conversion trends and pipeline performance over time.
What Clio data does Improvado pull?
Improvado extracts Lead Inbox entries, Matter Pipeline records (with custom statuses, tags, and pipeline values), contact information auto-populated from intake forms, lead source and referral tracking, engagement letters and retainer agreements, client communications (email, text, calls), and billing/payment records. The connector also pulls conversion metrics like lead-to-client rates, matter values vs. actual billings, and time-to-conversion through intake stages. Data refreshes on your export schedule.
How often does Clio data refresh?
Clio data refreshes on your export schedule. Each time a scheduled Clio export runs, the files reach Improvado by email, SFTP or S3 and load automatically, so lead and matter pipeline updates are as current as your latest export.
Can the AI agent write data back to Clio?
No. Improvado receives Clio data as scheduled file exports, so the agent does not change anything inside Clio. It can report on lead statuses and custom tags, flag leads that need follow-up, recommend tasks and email templates for your intake team to use, and compare matter records across Clio Grow and Clio Manage. Every query is logged with user attribution and timestamp in Improvado's audit trail. Role-based access controls let you restrict which agents can access specific objects, ensuring governance for client data.
Is Clio data secure with Improvado?
Improvado is SOC 2 Type II certified, HIPAA-compliant, and GDPR-ready — critical for legal practice data. All Clio data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). SFTP and S3 delivery credentials are stored in a secure vault. Improvado never stores raw client contact data permanently — only processed metrics and aggregates. You control data retention policies and can stop the scheduled exports at any time.
How does Clio connect with other platforms in Improvado?
Improvado maps Clio objects to a Common Data Model, unifying legal intake and matter data with marketing platforms (Google Ads, Facebook Ads for lead gen), communication tools (Mailchimp, Twilio), and analytics platforms (Google Analytics). Your agent can correlate lead conversion rates with ad spend by channel, analyze which referral sources produce highest-value matters, or track how email engagement impacts intake progression. All 1,400+ data sources share standardized schemas for seamless cross-platform queries.
