Create legal case records from tagged customer requests

Automatically monitor user tagged event activity across Intercom, Salesforce, and Gmail. Create legal case records and confirm receipt when a legal tag is added, a legal request tag is applied, or a configured tag is detectedβ€”so you can create CRM cases, send confirmations, and remove tags without manual duplicate processing.

How this automation protects your case intake

When a user is tagged for a legal request, delays can stall case intake and create duplicate work. This automation locates accounts and creates legal process records and confirms receipt automaticallyβ€”so your team can respond faster with cleaner tracking.
