Clio Expands Into Enterprise Legal Tech with AI, Compliance & BNPL Solutions
Burnaby-based legal tech firm Clio has launched ClioCon, a new enterprise division built for large law firms and corporate legal departments.
The suite unites Clio Operate, Clio Docket, Clio Library, and Vincent by Clio, integrating case management, analytics, and AI-driven legal research. Built on acquisitions like ShareDo (UK) and vLex (Spain), it helps teams manage complex operations across jurisdictions.
Clio also integrated with SmartSearch (UK) for built-in anti-money laundering (AML) and compliance checks - automating verification, onboarding, and monitoring within the Clio platform.
In addition, Clio partnered with Affirm to offer “Buy Now, Pay Later” (BNPL) options and launched Clio Capital, a financing program for law firms. These features, integrated into Clio’s payments system, gives clients flexible payment plans while improving law firm cash flow.
Why This Matters
Clio is evolving into a full-service enterprise platform - merging AI, compliance automation, and embedded FinTech to tackle inefficiencies in legal operations and client billing.
It’s a clear move toward unified, data-driven systems that combine case management, compliance, and finance in one ecosystem.
What This Means for the Industry
For Large Law Firms and Corporate Legal Departments:
Unified, AI-powered systems improve collaboration, oversight, and decision-making across teams and jurisdictions.
For Compliance and Risk Management Teams:
The integration of SmartSearch’s AML tools directly into Clio’s platform streamlines AML checks and onboarding, reducing admin burden.
For Legal Clients and Consumers:
The partnership with Affirm makes legal services more accessible while helping firms stay financially agile.
