Dodonai Conflict Check is an AI-managed service that screens proposed legal matters against a firm’s conflicts database and configured ethical walls before the firm commits. Its automated search can examine prior matter records, notes, and attached documents, not just party-name fields. It can also identify relationships involving spouses, co-counsel, parent and subsidiary entities, and common beneficial owners. The service checks walls set between practice groups or individual attorneys, then prepares a conflict memo with matching records and a recommended disposition. It logs checks in an audit trail that the page says supports Model Rule 1.7 and state-bar conflict-checking requirements. The agent works alongside the firm’s existing process, which remains the system of record; the attorney of record decides whether to accept or decline a matter. Listed connections include legal practice and document-management tools, office suites, Slack, and email. Pricing is on request; custom deployment details, including hosting and data handling, are specified in a Blueprint.
