Susan runs on a GPU-capable server you own or control. Two deployment options — office hardware or a UK-hosted dedicated instance. Either way, your client data stays on UK infrastructure you control.
Install with one command
Susan ships as a Docker Compose stack. On any server running Docker, a single command pulls the application, database, AI engine, and workflow automation platform. Everything is configured to work together out of the box.
Configure your firm's settings
Add your team, assign roles, and upload your firm's document templates and precedents. Then choose which AI model to run — you have full control. Pick a smaller, faster model for quick tasks or a larger, more capable one for complex drafting.
- Invite team members by email and assign roles
- Upload your firm's own templates and precedents
- Choose your AI model — total local LLM control
- Enable the automations your firm needs
Work normally. AI handles the rest.
Once configured, Susan runs in the background. When a new matter opens, compliance documents are drafted automatically. When key dates approach, your team is notified. When time is recorded, invoices are ready to review.
Your fee earners interact with a clean browser interface. They review AI-generated documents, approve them, and get on with legal work. The system handles the admin.
