Learn how to create automated solutions with no tech skills necessary!
Anson Evaluate in partnership with Tonic Workflows offer a three week course introducing how the Docassemble platform can be used within law firms to create your own LawTech.
What is Docassemble?
Docassemble is an open-source expert system for guided interviews and document assembly. It provides a web site that conducts interviews with users.
Documents can be built using the information gathered (such as word docs or PDF’s) which users can download or e-mail.
Other than document assembly, Docassemble can be used for a wide range of applications – for example they might submit an application, direct the user to other resources on the internet, store user input, interact with APIs, or simply provide the user with information.
