What does Case Status actually do?#
Every consumer practice has the same quiet tax: clients call because they don't know what's happening, and a paralegal stops real work to tell them "nothing new yet." Case Status tries to answer before they call. Per its site:
- Branded client app. Your logo, colors and firm name, with status updates, secure messaging, document uploads and video, and no password needed to log in.
- Automatic updates. When a case moves to a new stage in your case management system, the client sees it. Case Status lists integrations with Clio, Litify, MyCase, Neos, Filevine, CasePeer, SmartAdvocate, Smokeball, Salesforce and Docketwise.
- Short embedded videos to explain what each stage means and set expectations.
- AI-suggested replies. Case Status uses case context to suggest responses that staff review and send.
- Translation for clients who prefer another language.
- Sentiment tracking. Identify promoters and detractors during the case, so an unhappy client surfaces while you can still fix it.
- Reviews and referrals. Automatic review and referral requests, timed to client satisfaction.
In 2026 the company began positioning the platform as XOS, which it describes as a system for managing client experience.
What this means for you: The value depends on two things outside the app itself: clean case stages in your case management system, and clients who actually open the app.
How much does Case Status cost?#
Case Status doesn't publish prices; its pricing link leads to a demo request (vendor claim, checked October 15, 2026). Get a written quote.
When you get a quote, ask how it scales (per user, per active case, per client, or flat), whether translation and AI features are included, whether there's a setup or integration fee, and what the minimum term is.
What are Case Status's contract terms?#
The terms posted on Case Status's site are end-user Terms of Use (last updated October 1, 2025). They govern people using the site and app, not your firm's subscription. The firm agreement isn't public.
That means the important terms live in your order form. Get these in writing:
- Term and renewal: how long, whether it auto-renews, and the notice window to cancel.
- Price increases: a cap and a notice period.
- Data export: what you get back (messages, client feedback, documents), in what format, and how long after termination.
- Client data handling: where client messages and uploads are stored and who can access them.
How hard is Case Status to set up?#
Low to moderate on the software side, with one dependency: automatic updates only work if Case Status is connected to your case management system and your case stages mean something. If half your matters sit in a generic "Open" stage, that's all clients will see. Case Status offers on-demand training through Case Status University and a help center.
Buyer tips before you sign#
- Ask for the firm subscription agreement itself, not just the order form summary.
- Measure adoption and call volume during a pilot before committing firm-wide.
- Confirm the integration is two-way for the fields that trigger client updates.
- Write case-stage descriptions in plain English. Clients see them.
- Get data export terms in writing, including client feedback and message history.

How does Case Status compare?#
Hona is the main alternative in PI and takes a text-first approach instead of an app. Many practice management systems, including Clio and Smokeball, include client portals of their own, which may be enough if your status-call problem is modest.
