Introduction
High‑volume immigration teams need predictable throughput, audit‑ready records, and fast RFE turnarounds without sacrificing quality. Parley is an AI‑native system purpose‑built for immigration workflows that consolidates intake, reusable profiles, real‑time USCIS updates, drafting, assembly, and RFE response tracking into a single, Word‑first experience. See core capabilities on the Parley homepage and background on the company’s immigration focus on the About page.
Client intake that scales without duplication
Parley’s intake replaces ad‑hoc emails and spreadsheets with structured, reusable requests that map directly to USCIS forms and petition exhibits.
-
Send customizable document and data requests to clients; Parley’s AI analyzes evidence, extracts form inputs, and flags gaps for follow‑up. Source: July case‑management changelog.

Single intake covers multiple forms at once—deduplicated across I‑140, I‑129, I‑907, and G‑28 so you never ask for the same info twice. Source: July changelog.

Document‑led automated form filling identifies source‑of‑truth items (passport, I‑94, diploma, offer letter) and populates forms accordingly. Source: June workflows changelog.
Petitioner and Applicant Profiles for instant reuse
Profiles eliminate re‑entry and ensure consistency across matters for repeat corporate petitioners and individual applicants.
-
Petitioner Profiles: save key form inputs and exhibits once; auto‑pull into any new case. Source: July changelog.

Applicant Profiles: track status, biographical data, and validity dates; drag‑and‑drop I‑797s to attach and parse. Source: July changelog.

Case dashboards and work queues
Operational visibility is essential at volume. Parley provides board views and filters tuned to immigration practice.

Quickly locate blockers (missing evidence, unsigned forms) using smart filters and AI‑detected gaps. Sources: June workflows changelog, July case‑management changelog.
RFE drafting, playbooks, and end‑to‑end tracking
RFE work is time‑sensitive and detail‑heavy. Parley accelerates analysis, drafting, and monitoring.
-
Upload RFEs (including L‑1A, L‑1B, and New Office L). Parley maps officer comments to criteria, summarizes issues, lists evidence in the original filing, and suggests new exhibits. Source: July case‑management changelog.

Public LCA postings and PAF management
Parley supports DoL compliance tasks that frequently bottleneck high‑volume H‑1B work.

Generate electronic LCA notices, publish to a shareable link, and auto‑remove at the end of the posting period.
-
Create and retain Public Access Files; invite petitioners to a client‑specific portal for storage and retention. Source: Parley internal release notes (manual knowledge).
Word‑first drafting and one‑click assembly
