Aderant<\/a>, the Atlanta-based legal business management software company, used its Momentum Global 2026 conference this week to unveil the Aderant Agent Center \u2014 a new framework for deploying AI agents across law firm financial and operational workflows.<\/p>\n

The Agent Center, built on the company\u2019s Stridyn platform and powered by its MADDI AI layer, launches initially with three agents: a Collections Agent that automates and prioritizes collections workflows based on payment risk; an Appeals Agent designed to identify e-billing rejections and help firms draft data-informed responses to recover revenue; and a Talent Evaluation Agent that aggregates matter-level feedback to streamline the lawyer evaluation process.<\/p>\n

Aderant CEO Chris Cartrett<\/a> described the focus as automating processes that are both tedious and financially consequential. \u201cWhen you\u2019re billing a client and something gets challenged, then you have to submit an appeal \u2014 it\u2019s a very manual process, but it\u2019s really important because it\u2019s about money,\u201d Cartrett said during an online press briefing held ahead of the conference. \u201cNow we\u2019re able to bring automation into that by the leveraging of these agents.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lisa Erickson<\/a>, senior vice president of product management and AI, characterized the initial agents as \u201coperational workflow agents\u201d \u2014 a category she distinguished from simpler automation or system-level agents. She said the approach starts with tightly tying agents to firm data, with humans remaining in the loop on approvals, while the agents learn and improve over time.<\/p>\n

Aderant says it currently has 12 AI products already in the market and plans to deliver another 14 by the end of this year. The Agent Center roadmap calls for between 13 and 15 total agents, with the three unveiled at Momentum representing the initial release.<\/p>\n

The company also highlighted existing innovations including AI-powered time capture and narrative generation, its Virtual Pricing Director for data-driven pricing and budgeting, and next-generation accounts receivable and general ledger tools.<\/p>\n

More than 275 firms have adopted Expert Sierra, the company\u2019s cloud-enabled practice management platform, with 23% in the Am Law 200, according to the company.<\/p>\n

On the question of development velocity \u2014 Aderant is claiming its largest-ever slate of product releases \u2014 Cartrett pointed explicitly to AI coding tools.<\/p>\n

\u201cLiterally 95% of the code that they were able to create and 100% of the automated testing over the top of that was able to be enhanced literally via AI,\u201d he said, citing use of Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor. He also credited Stridyn\u2019s architecture for enabling faster builds by reducing reliance on legacy code.<\/p>\n

Although I am not attending the Momentum conference this year as I did last year, a notable addition is an onsite hackathon in which Aderant\u2019s development team will build a prototype feature \u2014 chosen by attendee vote from five client-sourced ideas \u2014 over approximately 30 hours, with results unveiled at the closing reception.<\/p>\n

Cartrett described it as a public demonstration of the company\u2019s development capabilities. \u201cWe\u2019re putting our money where our mouth is,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
