Keep more.Set prices once.Get hired when legal teams ask their AI.

Legal teams are asking ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI for vendors instead of digging through old contact lists. Scope makes sure your name is one their AI returns. Your rate card, your coverage, your real availability. Ready for them to hire you in one click. Process servers, court reporters, records vendors, expert witnesses, and the rest of the litigation vendor stack. The founding cohort opens before public launch.

The math

You keep 95 percent.

The big legal vendor consolidators take 20 to 40 percent of every job they route to you. Scope takes 5 percent. On $10,000 of awarded work this month, that is the difference between keeping $9,500 and keeping somewhere between $6,000 and $8,000.

Across every job you win. Locked at 5 percent for 24 months for founding cohort vendors.

Firms pay zero. That is our model.

Your rate card

Load it once. Scope runs the math.

Your rate card is not a single number. It is a small formula. A base rate plus the modifiers that fire on the attributes of the actual job. You set every number on it. After that, you never re-price, never re-negotiate, never scramble for a callback.

Smith Process Service, Harris County
Modifier

$75 per serve
Rush (within 24 hours)
+$50
Distance over 30 miles
+$1 per mile
Skip trace required

+$25
Each re-attempt
+$15

A job lands. Reyes v. Mercer, Harris County, served by Wednesday, defendant's address unconfirmed.

Scope computes from your card. $75 base + $60 skip trace = $135.

Your name and the $135 go back to the firm with the other vendors on their roster. No back-and-forth. No callback. The firm taps your card or moves on.

The shape this takes: higher card structures earn more per job and win less often. Leaner cards win more often and earn less per job. You decide which kind of shop you are. The formula does the work after that.

If a job needs an attribute your card does not cover (a Mandarin-speaking server, a tribal-court service) you fall out of qualified for that one job, or Scope prompts you to add the modifier to your card before the next one.

The cohort

100 founding slots per category, per metro. 24 months locked.

The first 100 vendors per category, per metro, become the founding cohort. Get in before public launch and you get the locked rate for 24 months from the day your category opens.

What you get:

5 percent take rate, locked for 24 months.
No rate increases, no re-pricing, no surprise changes during the 24-month cohort lock.
First-priority routing.
Every matter dispatched in your category and metro routes to founding partners before any open-market fan-out.
Stripe Connect, next-banking-day payout.
Destination-charge invoicing on your connected account. Scope never holds your money. Optional same-day payout if you elect it.
Founding-partner badge.
Every dispatch you appear in carries a founding-partner badge in the firm's AI client. Brand signal that compounds.
Cohort-only competition during the lock.
Inside the founding cohort, you compete with up to 99 other vendors in your category and metro for first-priority routing. After the 24-month cohort lock ends, the open market opens up.
Direct line to Jack.
Quarterly cohort call (30 minutes, Zoom, one call per category) for roadmap input and early access. Plus the founder's email for anything urgent.
Co-marketing as case studies develop.
Joint write-ups and shared visibility when there's a real story to tell. No commitments before the work is real.
The fine print

Read this before you apply. We mean it.

Not an exclusivity contract.
You keep every other relationship and channel. You can take work from anywhere. Scope is one channel, not your only channel.
Not a subscription.
No monthly fee. No annual contract. No listing fee.
Not an auction on every request.
Your rate card sets the price. You never re-price.
Not a platform-set price floor or ceiling.
Your numbers. You decline any dispatch you don't want.
Not another portal you log into every morning.
The whole workflow lives in your AI assistant. You set up once, then dispatches land where you already work.
Not a take rate that climbs during the cohort lock.
Locked at 5 percent for 24 months for founding cohort vendors. We have no plans to raise it after.
Requirements

The cohort is small. We verify before we onboard.

01
Operational track record.
Two-plus years active in your category. Real client roster, real case volume, real reputation.
02
Credentials and insurance.
COI, board credentials, category-specific certifications (JBCC for Texas process servers, etc.). We verify before cohort entry.
03
Standing rate card.
You publish your card to Scope and honor the computed prices for 24 months on Scope-routed work. No surprise upcharges.
04
30 minutes per quarter.
One cohort call per quarter (per category, all founding partners). 30 minutes, Zoom. Roadmap input and early access in return.

If you have API-capable scheduling, we will work with you to plug your system in so dispatches and acceptances flow through your existing tools. If you don't, the Scope dashboard handles availability directly. Accept or decline each dispatch in real time. Both paths work.

Day to day

Your dispatch queue, in your AI.

Same place you already do work. Your AI assistant tells you what is coming in, what you have accepted, and what is about to pay out.

$ $ claude run scope_briefing (vendor view)

You tap accept on the dispatches you want. Decline the ones you don't. Proof of service uploads from your phone. Payment runs on the rail automatically.
