Four phases.
One goal:
your autonomy.
A proven method. 30+ engagements, framed in time. The first operational decisions land in the framing phase. You know where we start and where we're going.
What it refuses,
and what it holds.
A classic consultancy sells 3 months of diagnostic, then a PowerPoint, then execution handed to rotating juniors. In the end, you've paid a lot for the deck and a project that never landed.
A SaaS vendor sells a tool they configure halfway, then leave. In the end, you have an expensive licence for a platform used at 20%.
The Pills. method refuses both. Quick framing, building with your teams, real deployment, measurement and transfer. One person from start to finish. Every phase produces something usable. The transfer isn't a bonus at the end, it's the goal.
Four phases,
designed as a trajectory.
Framing
Set a precise scope in 48 hours, with a shared definition of what is in the project and what is out.
- Targeted interviews with 3 to 5 key people: head of legal, practitioners, IT, security, finance, executive sponsor if relevant
- Quick mapping of current critical workflows
- Identification of priority pain points and those that can wait
- Alignment on a shared definition of mission success
- Precise scope (what's in the project, what's out)
- Week-by-week work plan
- Measurable success indicators for the closing
- Initial quick-win recommendations if identified
- Discipline on choosing interlocutors: no more than 5, but the right ones
- Immediate alignment with IT to avoid late blockers
- Drawn-out diagnostic to justify a budget
- Courtesy interviews with the entire organisation
Three principles,
held on every engagement.
From the first conversation to the last deliverable, you talk to the same person. No handoff, no context to re-explain.
Every phase produces something usable. Not 3 months describing what's wrong.
Every deliverable is built to work without us. Our goal: you no longer need Pills.
What you often
ask us.
How long does a full engagement take?+
Between 2 and 6 months depending on scope. A typical CLM structuring engagement in a legal department takes 3 to 4 months. A targeted automation (NDA flow, Q&A agent) can be done in 6 to 8 weeks. Everything is framed from phase 1: you know from day one when it ends.
How much does a Pills. engagement cost?+
Pills. bills by mission, fixed price, not hourly. The amount is proportional to the scope set in phase 1 and stays stable throughout execution. No overrun if scope doesn't change. Order of magnitude: between €30k and €120k depending on the project, for a value/cost ratio measurable at the exit.
Do I need to have already identified a project or a tool to start?+
No. The framing phase is precisely there to identify what deserves to be tackled first. You can come with an intuition ("our contract management takes too much time") and leave phase 1 with a precise plan. Conversely, if you already have a well-framed project, we go straight to phase 2.
Who trains my teams on what is deployed?+
Pills. trains the teams during phases 3 and 4. Training is built into the project, not a module sold separately. To go further, Pills. also offers dedicated Power Automate training for lawyers who want to build their own workflows.
What happens if our needs change during the engagement?+
A scope change is the subject of an explicit decision between you and Pills.: we evaluate the impact on schedule and budget before committing. But in most cases, the rigorous framing of phase 1 limits drift at the margins, not at the heart of the project.
Do you work on international scopes or in English?+
Yes. Pills. operates in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, in French or English. Deliverables are produced in the working language of the organisation. Multi-jurisdictional legal specifics are factored into the workflows (e.g., multi-jurisdiction contract management).
One hour to
frame your phase 1.
A direct conversation to see what deserves to be tackled first, and whether the Pills. method fits your situation. No commitment.
