AI-Powered Procurement for Legal Teams, Built to Scale
Case Study: Trusli
Trusli partnered with Melt Studio to develop a scalable, AI-enhanced procurement workflow system tailored for in-house legal teams. Our agile approach enabled rapid iteration across features like approvals, document handling, dashboards, and multitenancy—helping Trusli bring clarity and efficiency to legal operations.
THE CHALLENGE
Designing Smart Procurement Workflows for Legal Ops
To complement its AI-driven contract platform, Trusli needed a new module to manage purchasing requests, approval flows, and documents—seamlessly integrated into existing legal operations. The system had to be modular, multi-tenant, and ready to scale across enterprise clients.

Rally Chat
Melt provided exceptional services for us at RallyChat. I truly appreciated how quickly you ramped up on the project—sorting out access, setting up the tech, and adopting my kanban board seamlessly. Regular stand-ups kept communication flowing, and your use of Slack was professional and concise. The quality of work was outstanding, with excellent judgment, independent thinking, and clear communication on design decisions. Overall, an extremely professional experience—significantly better than the Globant contractors I worked with this year.
