What this course covers

The plumbing course: how client data, document intake, extraction, and AI-assisted work preparation connect across systems so agents can prepare work humans can trust and review.

You will map where data lives, how documents flow through Dark Lion, and where handoffs need review gates — leaving with a workflow map for reviewable, AI-assisted firm operations.

What you leave with

A data and workflow map that supports reviewable AI-assisted firm operations.

Included with the course

  • Full video lessons taught from real firm workflows
  • Module resources, worksheets, and implementation notes
  • A concrete next step for your firm after every module
  • Lifetime access after you open the course — no subscription required
