Announcing the ClioPad

A magical and, well, not-so-revolutionary device.

cliopadVancouver-based Themis Solutions Inc., provider of web-based legal practice management offering Clio, today announced the introduction of its newest product, the ClioPad.

ClioPad’s high-quality paper stock, made from 100% recycled and biodegradable paper, is college ruled and spiral bound. At a mere 3 ounces and a sleek 0.25 inches thin, the ClioPad is easy to carry and use anywhere.  Featuring an infinite battery life, you won’t be hunting around for an outlet to plug into anytime soon.  ClioPad gives you the ability to jot down ideas whenever and wherever they occur, whether there’s an internet connection or not!  It is the perfect offline companion to Clio, the best way to manage your law practice online.

Legal technology and eDiscovery expert Brett Burney of Burney Consultants was amazed at the innovativeness of the ClioPad.  He reveled,

The ClioPad helped me re-discover the pencil. Who knew you could create text without typing?  The ClioPad is so intuitive and user-friendly that even my 3-year old picked it right up … although she preferred to use a crayon.  Surfing the Internet is still a little primitive – I tried visiting www.cliopad.com but I had to draw my own 404 error. Also, the ClioPad is so versatile when compared to other products – just try making a paper airplane out of your laptop!

Clio President and Co-Founder Jack Newton said, “We think the ClioPad is the ultimate offline companion to Clio. It will work anywhere, with or without internet, with or without power. With its built-in handwriting compatibility, we think we’re really on to something.”

Features of ClioPad:

  • Offline functionality
  • Infinite battery life
  • Biodegradable, PVC-free
  • Handwriting-enabled
  • Copy notes from one ClioPad to another
