Avoid Dual Automation
In HotDocs, document automation requires both automating your templates and automating the interview to dictate when questions were displayed, which is a duplication of work.
In Knackly, relevant fields are automatically asked for each document you automate – without manually showing or hiding form fields or document outputs.
Knackly's intake builder automatically guides clients and users through the necessary questions without extraneous scripting or seeing questions they don't need to answer.
Easily Create Dynamic Variables
While HotDocs does allow dynamic variables, the process of creating and filling them tends to be tedious and time-consuming. In Knackly, creating a dynamic selection variable is simple and straightforward.
To create a dynamic selection variable in Knackly, you only need a list of the information you want the variable based on (i.e., a list of parties, or borrowers, or children). Then all you have to do is direct your selection variable to pull from the list, and you're done – no complex scripting, indexing, or other programming required.
Easily Reuse information
Knackly is built with an object oriented methodology. Which means when you need to reuse or update Knackly makes it easy to accomplish without a lot of scripting.
Create Multiple Documents From the Same Intake
In Knackly the setup to create multiple documents from the same interview is straight forward with our Apps.
No more needing to figure out what questions to ask through extensive scripting. Just add your document(s) to an app and the questions will automatically be asked of the user.
Workflow Made Easier
Being able to move from client to client efficiently helps cut down on the time you spend looking for information and documents.
In Knackly, all of your client information ("records") is searchable, so that you can find clients and their documents easily.
