Brightline

Most professional services firms are trapped renting SaaS products that solve 80% of their problems while creating new ones. At Brightline Labs, we build the missing 20%. We build custom AI agents for law firms, accountants, and fee-earning teams. Instead of selling you another monthly subscription, we scope a specific bottleneck in your firm, build a bespoke AI module to solve it, and hand the source code over to your GitHub repository. You own the software. You own the IP. You never pay us rent. Founded by Roy McFarland—a lawyer and operator who has spent 15 years building, scaling, and exiting professional services firms—Brightline Labs is designed to be exactly the engineering partner firms actually need. We know where the billable hours go, which tools promise leverage but deliver paperwork, and what "good" feels like when software finally earns its place in a firm. How we work: • Fixed Scope, Fixed Price: You approve a written scope and a number before we write a line of code. No hourly billing, no change-order theater. • Delivered to Your GitHub: The full source code lands in your repo on day one of launch. No obfuscated binaries. • No Subscriptions: Your software doesn't pay us rent every month. Any competent developer can maintain it. Whether it's a two-week Sprint to automate deposition summaries, or an eight-week Enterprise Integration to overhaul intake and workpapers, we build in the open, test on your real work, and leave when the job is done. Stop renting leverage. Start owning it.
