> Mindie gives lawyers a quick way to set personal reminders and notes in WhatsApp: calls to return, documents to send, renewals. Not a docketing system.

## Messages to send Mindie
- Between hearings: "Remind me at 5pm to call Mr. Carter back about the lease draft"
- A document to send: "Remind me tomorrow at 10am to send the signed affidavit to the client"
- Bar and licence renewals: "Remind me on 1 March at 9am my practising certificate renewal is due on 31 March"

Mindie is a WhatsApp assistant for a lawyer's personal reminders: calls to return, documents to send, renewals and the small follow-ups between hearings. Send "remind me at 5pm to call Mr. Carter back about the lease draft" from the corridor, and it's set.

Your firm's systems hold the matters, the court dates and the filings. What they're bad at is the quick personal promise made on the phone or in a hallway, which is exactly when there's no time to open a case management tool.

## What lawyers use it for

- **Calls to return** after hearings and meetings.
- **Documents to send or chase,** set the moment you promise them.
- **Your own renewals:** practising certificates, memberships, CLE or CPD hours.
- **Personal admin** that gets pushed aside: bills, family dates, appointments.

## What to keep in your firm's systems

Mindie is a personal reminder tool. Court deadlines, limitation dates and anything a matter depends on belong in your firm's docketing system. Keep confidential and privileged details there too. A Mindie reminder can be a second nudge, never the only record.

## Why it fits

- **Fast capture by voice note** between hearings.
- **Works on any phone** with WhatsApp, without IT setup.
- **Sunday recap** of the week's personal reminders.

## How it works

Link your WhatsApp number, then send reminders, notes and lists in plain words, voice notes or screenshots. Mindie confirms each one and messages you on time, in your timezone. Reply to a reminder to move it. Every Sunday it sends a recap of the week ahead.

## What Mindie doesn't do

- **It isn't a docketing or case management system.**
- **It doesn't message clients, courts or colleagues.**

## FAQ

### Can I use Mindie for court deadlines?
Use your firm's docketing or case management system as the record for court and filing deadlines. Mindie can add a personal nudge on top, but it shouldn't be the only place a deadline lives.

### Should I put confidential client details in Mindie?
Keep privileged and confidential information in your firm's systems. Short reminders like "call Mr. Carter about the draft" are what Mindie is for.

### Does Mindie message clients?
No. Mindie only messages you.
