Rocket Matter
Legal practice management with billing and time tracking, tiered from matter basics to full legal accounting
As of 1 September 2026, Rocket Matter's pricing is not published; the vendor quotes on request. A law firm practice management platform, unrelated to the catalogued Matter smart-home protocol despite the shared word, priced per user per month across four tiers that separate simple matter tracking from full trust accounting and budgeting. Softwr lists it under Legal. Rocket Matter is made by ProfitSolv, available on Web, iOS, Android.
Overview
What Rocket Matter does
Rocket Matter handles matter and case management, time tracking, billing and invoicing, document management and calendaring for law firms, with kanban-style views for tracking matter status and templates for repeatable workflows. It is aimed at solo practitioners through mid-sized firms rather than large enterprise legal departments. The pricing structure runs four tiers that gate functionality by firm complexity: Essentials at around 49 US dollars a user a month covers matter management, billing and timekeeping only; Pro at around 79 US dollars adds matter templates and kanban boards; Premier at around 99 US dollars adds advanced billing permissions and fee allocation for larger firms; and a newer Elite tier around 129 US dollars a user a month adds matter budgeting and full legal accounting, including trust accounting compliance. Annual billing brings each tier down somewhat from the monthly rate. A firm that starts on Essentials for cost reasons commonly finds it needs to move up once it requires trust accounting compliance, which only the top tier includes. Buyers are small to mid-sized law firms wanting a single system for time, billing and matter tracking rather than combining a generic project tool with separate billing software. The trade-off is that firms doing serious trust accounting, which many bar associations require compliance controls for, need the most expensive Elite tier rather than a mid-range plan, so the effective floor price for a compliant firm is higher than the advertised entry price suggests.
What people use it for
- A solo practitioner wanting matter tracking and billing in one system without separate accounting software
- A small firm that needs kanban-style visibility into where each matter stands
- A mid-sized firm that has outgrown Essentials and needs split billing across multiple timekeepers on a matter
- A firm required to demonstrate trust accounting compliance that specifically needs the top Elite tier

The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Rocket Matter.
- Trust accounting compliance is only included on the most expensive Elite tier, so firms with a regulatory requirement for it face a higher effective floor price than the entry-level plan suggests.
- It is not built for large enterprise legal departments, so firms above a certain size outgrow it and move to platforms such as Clio or Aderant.
- The tier structure gates common workflow features like kanban boards and templates behind Pro and above, so the cheapest tier is functionally limited.
- Its name is easily confused with the Matter smart-home connectivity protocol, an entirely unrelated technology, which can cause mismatched search results.
- Per-user monthly pricing across four tiers means a growing firm needs to actively reassess its plan as headcount and accounting needs change, rather than a single plan scaling automatically.
