Gavel

About Gavel
Gavel is powerful document automation software to gather data that generates your forms, template documents, and agreements.
There are two steps to create custom webforms that populate data into your Word or PDF documents:
1. First, create your questionnaire.
2. Load your template documents and connect the questions, tagging the fields you want to change based on user inputs in the Word or PDF docs you uploaded. Add logic jumps, conditions, calculations, and formatting specifications.
Then, run your workflow or share with others to generate finalized docs. Users save 90% of drafting time.
With the workflow builder, users create a custom questionnaire to gather relevant data and add branching logic. Users' frequently used Word and PDF documents can be uploaded to Gavel and "tagged" (connected) to the interview questions. Users can then share the completed workflows with colleagues (internally) or externally with clients, embed it on their website, and measure analytics.
Gavel lets organizations publish client facing web apps. Users can add logic jumps, conditions, signatures, calculations and formatting specifications without any coding. The cloud-based tool enables lawyers to insert relevant clauses into template agreements for any area of law.
Key benefits of Gavel
• Gavel allows users to add complex branching and conditional logic to workflows without any need for coding.
• Gavel is a mobile friendly solution which lets firms put their intake online for clients to view and assess.
• Gavel's bank-level security and multiple layers of encryption ensures that confidential client data is stored securely.
• Lawyers can use the solution’s automated bot to avoid manual data entry of similar fields in multiple documents.
• Legal professionals can include relevant clauses in templated agreements with a single click, and share drafts with clients.

Gavel has been a game-changer for our workflow automation!

Prior to Gavel, our client intake relied on PDF forms that required a lot of manual manipulation and weren't the easiest to update. Talk about a time and energy suck. Plus, our confidence in using our forms began to wobble as there were new questions that we wanted to include as well as existing questions that we wanted to adjust. And oddly enough, our forms became buggy which didn't make for the best client experience. So this put us on the hunt for a new solution which led me to [sensitive content hidden] and the Gavel team (Documate at the time). Everyone was terrific. After pulling the trigger and making the switch, we haven't looked back. Goodbye clunky old forms. Gavel for the win!
Pros
3 standouts: (1) A secure client portal that has dramatically improved the efficiency of our intake workflow; (2) The ability to easily and instantly update the data we collect; and (3) The AMAZING CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!!
Cons
My only gripe is that we didn't implement Gavel sooner. ;)

It was great. Staff and management very helpful. I have used several platforms and I found this the best one for a small firm like mine. It can save a ton of time (and money) by allowing me to draft my "standard documents: myself and to do it correctly and economically, thus saving me staff time.
Pros
Once you learn the basics, it is very EASY to create and use. It is very versatile as well.
Cons
Not much to criticize really. Would like a document bundle option for putting together series documents, but not a big problem

The BEST document automation solution on the market
Reviewed on 2024/10/04
Pros
Powerful automation with perfect output and ease of use in setting up. The most powerful no-code / low-code solution on the market by far.
Cons
For my purposes I have absolutely zero complaints.
Reasons for Choosing Gavel
WealthDocx & Eldler DocX on a custom software platform. The cost of upkeep in the custom solution was too high and even then it was not as effective as Gavel.Reasons for Switching to Gavel
Far better automation and breadth of options in Gavel.- Industry: Nonprofit Organization Management

We appreciate the availability of Gavel. Both the standalone Gavel and the Gavel integrated LegalServer are critical programs for our daily use. As both a builder and user, I found Gavel's forms and templates intuitive and easy to create or use.
Pros
First is saving staff's time to create/generate forms. Second is collaboration with applicant to obtain information. Third is that customizable forms and templates which expanding the area using Gavel ( we are using Gavel for internal forms not only Legal forms, such as leave request, Mileage reimbursement form etc).
Cons
Con is that I can't find any cons about Gavel : )
