Practical ways to use Clio and Gmail together

In a law firm the work between Clio and Gmail is organized by matter: the right client, the right matter, the right people on it. Caddi carries that context through every step, so nothing is filed against the wrong case.

  • 01

    Open Clio matters from inbound intake emails.

    When a prospective-client email lands in Gmail, Caddi extracts the parties, matter type, and contact info, then opens the matter in Clio with conflicts run and folder structure created.

  • 02

    Log Gmail threads as Clio communications.

    Caddi watches the matter-specific Gmail label and files every reply to the right Clio matter with the sender, recipients, timestamp, and body preserved.

  • 03

    Send Clio billing reminders from Gmail.

    When a matter hits a billing threshold, Caddi drafts the reminder from Gmail using the client's preferred template — sent from the assigned attorney's address, not a shared inbox.

Common questions

How does Caddi connect Clio and Gmail?

Clio and Gmail just run together. You teach Caddi the way you'd teach a new hire: walk it through how you use them today, with no workflow builder to wire up. Caddi turns that walkthrough into a verified loop and runs it against Clio and Gmail end-to-end.

Do I need engineering help?

No. Whoever does the work today walks Caddi through it on a call, the same way they'd train a new hire. Caddi builds the loop. No code, no IT ticket.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Caddi is SOC 2 attested. The AI watches and builds the automation, and once the loop ships it runs as deterministic code, repeatable and logged, with any model step scoped and reviewable.

Can Caddi connect Clio and Gmail to other tools too?

Yes. Most Caddi loops span 3–6 tools. Once the first Clio + Gmail loop is live, Caddi suggests other tools and other workflows to fold in.

How fast can it go live?

Typical first loops ship within a week of that first walkthrough. The Caddi team reviews every loop before it runs in production.

Does this work for law firms?

Yes. Caddi runs Clio and Gmail with the matter as the unit of work, so documents, time, and communications land against the right client and matter rather than in a general folder. Firms most often start with intake, document filing, or billing prep.
