Buckle up as we dive into the heat and go behind the scenes with VXT and Smokeball.

Meet Luke and Emma: The Stars of the Show

Luke, the co-founder and CEO of VXT, and Emma, Smokeball’s Partnership Manager, are the stars of our spicy adventure. They’re not only veterans of their respective companies but also ready to face some seriously hot sauces in our latest showdown. Rumour has it Luke was worried that the hot sauces wouldn’t be hot enough, so he called in the reinforcements (watch the video to find out). 🌶️🌶️🌶️

What is VXT?

VXT is a cloud-based Voice over IP (VoIP) phone system built specifically for law firms. It replaces outdated legacy systems and integrates with practice management systems like Smokeball to sync your contacts and automatically save notes from calls. It’s the easiest phone system a lawyer will ever use, that’s why they’ve already helped the profession make over 5 million calls!

What is Smokeball?

Smokeball is a comprehensive legal practice management system that runs over 3000 law firms. It serves as the operational backbone for small to mid-sized law firms, handling everything from matter management to invoicing and trust accounting. It’s the heart of a law firm’s tech platform.

The Heat is On: A Spicy Q&A

First Up: Carolina Reaper Honey Barbecue Sauce

Our spicy adventure begins with Carolina Reaper Honey Barbecue Sauce—a contender known for its intense heat. Luke and Emma dive into this fiery sauce while discussing what sets VXT apart from other phone systems.

Q: What makes VXT unique compared to other VoIP phone systems?

Luke: “VXT is designed specifically for law firms. Unlike generic VoIP systems, it’s tailored to meet the unique needs of legal professionals. Its user-friendly interface is akin to a mobile phone app, which helps lawyers transition smoothly from traditional desk phones to a modern, efficient system.”

The Smokeball Backstory

As the heat intensifies, the conversation turns to Smokeball’s intriguing name. Smokeball is named after a historic legal case from the 1800s in England involving a dubious health product called a “carbolic smoke ball.” This case, famous for its legal implications, gave rise to the term “puffery” in advertising.

Q: What’s the story behind the name Smokeball?

Emma: “The name originates from a landmark legal case in England. The ‘carbolic smoke ball’ was a product that failed to deliver on its promises, leading to a famous case that introduced the term ‘puffery’ in advertising. It’s a nod to the groundbreaking impact Smokeball aims to have in the legal tech space.”

Next on the Heat Scale: 13 Angry Scorpions

The discussion heats up with 13 Angry Scorpions hot sauce. Here, the focus shifts to VXT’s global presence.

Q: How has VXT expanded since its inception?

Luke: “VXT started in New Zealand, and we’ve grown rapidly since then. We now have a presence in North America, the UK, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. Our expansion has been driven by a 10% monthly growth rate and increasing traction in key markets.”

Smokeball’s New AI Feature

With the heat now intense, Luke and Emma tackle the latest from Smokeball—Archie, the new AI assistant.

Q: Can you tell us more about Archie, Smokeball’s new AI assistant?

Emma: “Archie is designed to help lawyers with document management and email drafts. It streamlines these tasks, making legal practice more efficient. This feature is a testament to Smokeball’s commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology into our legal practice management software.”

The Fiery Finale: Dingo Psycho Hot Sauce

For the grand finale, Dingo Psycho Hot Sauce takes center stage. This sauce is known for its extreme heat, just as VXT and Smokeball push the boundaries of legal tech.

Q: What’s next for VXT and Smokeball in the realm of legal tech?

Luke: “We’re continually pushing the envelope to bring more innovation to the legal tech space. Our goal is to keep enhancing our systems and integrations, making life easier for law firms around the globe all whilst keeping it simple and easy to use.”

Emma: “Smokeball is also focused on incorporating more advanced features and AI capabilities to further streamline legal processes and improve productivity.”
