The same story, told many times
About seventy percent of what directories ask is the same from one directory to the next. Each asks for it in a different template, and each cycle asks again.
In brief
Istiniti is a secure workspace where a firm’s directory submissions are built. Lawyers describe a matter by voice, in Spanish, English or Portuguese, and the system drafts a structured record that waits for a partner’s approval.
Approved matters, attorney profiles, clients, referees and the firm profile then flow into any submission, exported in the structure of each directory’s own template. One structured record of the firm’s work; every directory, every cycle, built from it.
Strong submissions are built on structure
Partner time is the real cost
A single submission can absorb thirty to sixty partner hours of recollection, data entry, referee coordination and formatting.
Detail decides outcomes
Directories look for consistency: matters in the right sections, referees who respond, narratives that hold together year after year.
Memory fades faster than deadlines arrive
The strongest matters often conclude months before the deadline. Capturing them as they happen beats reconstructing them under pressure.
Capture once. Use everywhere.
Record the matter
When a matter concludes, the partner records a voice memo of up to ten minutes, or types, or pastes a transcript. In production the memo is transcribed on the platform’s own private server.
Review the draft
AI drafts the full record the directories ask for from the text of the transcript, and each draft is labelled as such. Fields it cannot find stay empty. A partner reviews and approves; nothing unapproved is exported, and clients stay confidential by default.
Export in the directory’s format
Approved matters combine with profiles, clients and referees into Word and Excel files in the structure of the directory’s template. The firm uploads them through the directory’s own portal.
What the workspace maintains
Firm profile and clients
Firm and practice data answered once; a client registry with confidential and publishable lists and the new-client flag.
Matter library
Voice, dictation, paste or form; partner approval with who and when; automatic archive after twelve months.
Attorneys and referees
Profiles in three languages; referees with consent, a notice email, registered confirmation and every ask across directories.
Submission builder and readiness
Only combinations the directory ranks; five-state readiness with owners and due dates; limits checked before export.
Confidentiality scan
Confidential names, values, case references, consents and unapproved matters flagged before anything leaves the firm.
Calendar and results
Deadlines, research windows and pre-warnings; results, researcher feedback and participation per cycle.
Six directory publishers
Depth first: Chambers Latin America, Intellectual Property, is the complete flow. Templates always come from the directory; nothing is redistributed.

Built for information that cannot leak
Confidential by default
Every matter and client enters as confidential. Publishable needs a partner’s mark, recorded with who and when.
Internal stays internal
Internal notes, transcripts, requests and source metadata are never written to any export, and a test proves it.
Your firm only
Each firm’s data is isolated from every other firm’s. Full export and permanent deletion at any time.
Private voice, reviewed AI
In production, audio is transcribed on the platform’s own private server and deleted once the transcript exists. AI reads only the text, and its provider is named in the Privacy Policy as a sub-processor. The AI never writes into an export on its own: only partner-approved text goes out. Card details never touch the platform.
Plans
One price list for every firm in every market. The price depends only on the number of submissions.
A submission is one directory, one jurisdiction and one practice area in one edition cycle. Re-exports in the same cycle are free. Lawyer profiles are unlimited.
