Docket Build

Pricing

Priced against the unbillable paralegal hours it saves.

Flat firm pricing with unlimited pages and unlimited Bates stamping. Seats are bundled rather than metered, because per-seat pricing punishes exactly the firms that get the most out of assembly automation.

Annual billing saves roughly 16%.

The break-even

Two petitions a month covers it.

Take a boutique firm filing fifteen merit and employment petitions a month. At roughly fifteen hours of manual assembly per case and a $45 burdened paralegal cost, that is $675 of mechanical labour per matter — $10,125 a month before an attorney has thought about petition theory.

Docket Build takes assembly under two hours per case. The same fifteen matters cost $1,350 in labour, plus $749 a month for Boutique Firm — the tier most 2–6 attorney practices choose for its seat count and firm-wide conventions. That is a saving of roughly $8,000 a month, and the subscription is covered by the second filed petition.

Customer story

“I am the attorney, the paralegal and the office manager. Docket Build is the only reason I can take an O-1A and a marriage case in the same month and still leave the office at a reasonable hour.”

Pricing questions

Ten answers, in full.

Ask something else

One assembled petition is one filing package built for one beneficiary and one form type — for example an I-140 EB-2 NIW petition with its exhibit binder and cover letter. Rebuilding, re-Bates-stamping or re-exporting that same packet is unlimited and never counts again. An RFE response packet built later for the same matter counts as a second petition.
