Smokeball owns one room but rarely controls it.
Where it wins. A 77.8% mention rate in Legal Practice Management puts Smokeball in nearly four out of five AI-generated conversations about practice software, and a rank of 3 out of 15 confirms it belongs in the shortlist.
Where it loses. A 2.8% first-pick rate means buyers hear the name but models hand the recommendation to someone else, and Smokeball never surfaces when enterprise buyers ask, leaving that segment entirely to Clio and its peers.
