Indaba began as one family's fight to protect what their late father built. In building it, we made something bigger: a secure operating system for any high-stakes personal matter — a case, a claim, a legacy — where the truth has to be gathered, kept, and made ready. This is what it is, who it's for, and how it sells.
A private, permission-based platform that pulls a whole matter — documents, evidence, timeline, money map, testimony, communications and deadlines — into one place, then helps you act on it: draft, brief, track, and hand a case to counsel already built. It thinks with you, and it keeps everyone informed at exactly the depth they should be.
Private, gated, every open logged. Role-based access enforced at the data layer — owner, counsel, witness, observer.
Email straight into the file — text captured, attachments filed, sorted, quarantined for your review.
Tiered questions, answered by voice or text, transcribed, attributed — statements built to a standard.
A private thinking partner for the principals — speak, it reads the file and offers the ways forward.
Auto-composed updates in the right voice for each audience — owners, counsel, family — always approved.
Deadlines and replies on the clock; evidence registers that track what you have and still need.
Indaba's strength is that one system serves very different people, each getting exactly what they need and nothing they shouldn't.
From overwhelmed to in-command: everything in one place, the next actions surfaced, a private space to think, and a way to keep counsel and family updated without writing a word.
Walks into a case already built — exhibit index, money map, timeline, statements, and a clear brief. Less time assembling, more time on strategy; a client who is organised and responsive.
A warm page that greets them by name and asks only what they'd know — answered by voice or text, whenever suits. Independent, private, dignified. "Share something else" keeps the door open.
Family and friends kept gently in the loop with a warm, discreet update — no legal detail, just where things stand and an open hand.
Built for one estate dispute — but the shape fits a wide field of high-stakes, document-heavy, multi-party situations where ordinary people are outmatched by whoever kept the better records.
Chosen by template at signup and white-labellable for any organisation. Start in one edition, grow into the others.
Estates, claims, disputes — any matter headed for counsel.
Programs, and sensitive people-matters — HR, grievance, investigations.
Invite-only sharing, inner-circle input, a light data room.
A matter has a beginning and an end — so pricing meets people where they are, from a single case to an organisation running many. Illustrative tiers:
Add-ons: one-time “case set-up” service (we build your file with you), pay-as-you-go AI drafting, and referral revenue from the professional network the directory feeds.
