Want a Law Firm in Jakarta or Bali? Empowering Legal Connections with AI Automation through WunderWaffen
Bursa Hukum is a pioneering legal services marketplace in Indonesia, connecting clients with lawyers and law firms. Through its innovative platform, it offers services such as written legal assistance, consultations, and pro bono work, supported by live chat, video calls, and online payment options. However, scaling their operations and managing client-lawyer interactions presented challenges, prompting Bursa Hukum to explore automation solutions.
This AI automation case study demonstrates how WunderWaffen leveraged tools like Make.com and advanced AI to streamline workflows, enhance service delivery, and boost customer satisfaction.
The Challenge: Navigating a Complex Legal Ecosystem
The Indonesian legal market is highly dynamic, with a growing demand for accessible digital solutions. Bursa Hukum needed to address several operational pain points:
- Manual Client-Lawyer Matching: Matching clients with lawyers was time-intensive, leading to delays.
- Scattered Communication Channels: Managing inquiries across live chat and video calls was inefficient.
- Raising Awareness amongst Lawyers: Lawyers in Indonesia are to be made aware that Bursa Hukum exists for their benefit.
- Raising Awareness amongst Legal Services Users: Ordinary people in Indonesia who require legal services are to be made aware that Bursa Hukum exists for their benefit.
The latter 2 challenges limited the platform's ability to scale and meet increasing user demand. Bursa Hukum sought an automation solution to optimize operations without sacrificing the quality of its services.

1. The Solution: Implementing AI Automation with Make.com and Apify
To address Bursa Hukum’s operational challenges, WunderWaffen designed a customized automation workflow that integrated data scraping, lead enrichment, and outreach capabilities. The first step in this solution involved leveraging Apify and Make.com to streamline lead generation and user engagement processes.
Data Scraping with Apify: Powering Targeted Outreach
Using the Apify Google Maps Scraper, our team extracted essential legal service data to support outreach and onboarding initiatives.
- Scraping Relevant Leads:
- Targeting specific business categories such as independent law firms and freelance lawyers.
- Filtering results by location and specialty.
- Validating and Enriching Data:
- Ensuring datasets from Apify were accurate and up-to-date.
- Enriching data with contact details for improved personalization during outreach.
2. Verifying and Enriching Lead Data for Personalized Outreach
Building upon the data scraping workflow and targeted outreach strategies outlined earlier, WunderWaffen implemented an additional layer of email verification to enhance the quality of leads. Ensuring accurate and active information was crucial for creating personalized and efficient connections between clients and lawyers.
Website Verification: Ensuring Active and Relevant Leads
To validate the extracted data, we used an HTTP module integrated within Make.com. This process ensured that all listed websites in Apify’s dataset were active and provided accurate information. Here’s how this step was executed:
- HTTP Request Setup:
- The system automatically sent HTTP requests to URLs obtained during data scraping.
- Response Code Analysis:
- Active websites returned a 200 OK response, confirming their functionality.
- Websites with errors (e.g., 404 Not Found) were flagged for manual review.
- Error Handling and Logging:
- Any failed attempts or discrepancies were logged in a centralized error report.
- These logs allowed the team to quickly address data inconsistencies and maintain high lead quality.
Text Parsing for Enhanced Personalization
To make outreach efforts more impactful, we enriched the verified data using advanced text parsing techniques:
- Content Extraction:
- Meta descriptions, titles, and keywords were extracted from each active website. This additional context helped identify the nature of legal services offered by each lawyer or firm.
- Key business descriptions were analyzed to tailor client-lawyer matchmaking further.
- Automated Categorization:
- Based on the extracted metadata, each lead was categorized by specialization (e.g., family law, corporate law, or pro bono services) and location.
How This Helped Bursa Hukum
The integration of website verification and data enrichment into the AI automation workflow elevated the quality of connections on Bursa Hukum’s platform.
3. Organizing Verified Data for Seamless Processing
Following the verification and enrichment of lead data, WunderWaffen implemented a Google Sheets integration into the automation workflow for Bursa Hukum. This step created an accessible, organized repository for all leads, ensuring scalability and ease of processing for subsequent outreach and matchmaking tasks.
Storing Leads in Google Sheets
To enhance usability, verified data was stored in a structured Google Sheets document. This cloud-based approach provided an efficient and up-to-the-second way for Bursa Hukum’s team to monitor, manage, and update lead information.
- Automated Google Sheets Integration:
- Each verified lead was automatically added to Google Sheets with essential data fields such as:
- Business Name
- Website URL
- Contact Information
- Lead Status (Verified/Unverified)
- Real-Time Updates:
- New rows were dynamically created as leads were processed through Make.com.
- Any updates to lead status (e.g., unverified to verified) were reflected instantly, ensuring the sheet remained up-to-date.
Structured and Searchable Format
Organizing data in a uniform format enabled seamless use across automation processes, such as outreach and client-lawyer matching. Key practices included:
- Consistent Data Entry:
Standardizing input formats for fields like phone numbers and email addresses reduced errors and simplified subsequent processing. - Categorization for Matchmaking:
Leads were segmented by criteria like legal specialization, location, and service type, ensuring precise targeting in outreach campaigns.
By linking the workflows described in earlier sections, from data scraping and verification to Google Sheets storage, WunderWaffen provided a centralized, real-time lead management system. This comprehensive solution allowed the legal marketplace to focus on its core mission: connecting clients with the right legal expertise quickly and effectively and excel in the Indonesian legal services industry.
4. Data Enrichment with Apify - Gathering Additional Business Information
Objective: Enrich each lead with additional details (e.g., social media links, business descriptions) to increase the outreach personalization.
- Use the Apify Social Media Scraper:
- Select an Apify Actor: To further enrich the data gathered from Google Maps, select an Apify actor that specializes in scraping social media profiles, websites, or other public business-related data. This actor can automatically search for each business's social media presence and other relevant information that will enhance your outreach.
- Configuration of Input Parameters: For each lead, enter the business name and website URL into the Apify configuration as search parameters. This ensures the actor targets the right business profiles and returns comprehensive data.
- Data Extraction: The main goal here is to collect additional business details such as social media links (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), business descriptions, and any engagement metrics (e.g., followers, recent activity). This data helps build a better understanding of each business, which can be leveraged for more personalized outreach efforts.
- Integrate with Google Sheets:
- Once the data is enriched, store it in the same Google Sheet used previously. This allows for easy cross-referencing with the initial business information.
- Add Columns for New Data: Create new columns for the social media profiles, business type, or any other relevant information acquired. This organization ensures that each lead’s profile is comprehensive, making it easier to craft highly personalized messages.
By enriching the leads with social media and additional business context, a company can tailor your outreach even further, showing a deeper understanding of each prospect’s online presence and increasing the chances of a positive engagement.
5. Text Parsing - Extracting Data for Personalization and Lead Enrichment
Objective: Parse the enriched data for specific keywords that can be used to customize outreach messages.
- Keyword Matching:
- Text Parsing: Use a text parser to scan the business descriptions or metadata for keywords that can highlight the business’s unique attributes, such as “family-owned,” “award-winning,” or “locally recognized.” These keywords provide a valuable insight into the business's identity and values, which can be used to craft more personalized outreach messages.
- Pattern Matching: Beyond simple keyword matching, employ pattern recognition to identify phrases or themes that reflect the business’s services, achievements, or target market. For instance, if a business emphasizes "sustainable practices" or "customer-first service," this information can help you frame a tailored message that resonates more deeply with the business. This increases conversion rate.
2. Update Google Sheets:
- Once the relevant keywords or patterns are identified, add them as new columns in your existing Google Sheet. These columns can track descriptors such as "business type," "unique selling points," or any other attribute that could personalize the outreach message.
- This additional data can later be used to fine-tune the email drafts, subject lines, or other outreach content, ensuring that every communication feels relevant and specific to each business’s needs and identity.
By using text parsing to identify specific keywords, you can enhance the personalization of your outreach, leading to more meaningful interactions and a higher chance of conversion.
6. AI-Powered Subject Line and Email Draft Generation
Objective: Create a personalized email subject line and body tailored to each lead, maximizing outreach effectiveness.
- Subject Line Generation:
- Prompt for Subject Line: Leverage AI to generate a compelling subject line that is specifically designed for each lead. For example, use a prompt like: “Generate a compelling subject line for a {business type} located in {location} introducing our automation services.” This prompt provides context, helping the AI create a subject line that resonates with the specific business and location, grabbing their attention immediately.
- Output Storage: Once the subject line is generated, store it in a dedicated column in your Google Sheet for each lead. This ensures easy access during the outreach process and enables you to track the subject lines for future performance analysis.
- Email Draft Creation:
- Prompt for Email Body: Similarly, use an AI-powered prompt to generate a tailored email body. For instance: “Compose an email to {business name}, a {business type} located in {location}, explaining how our automation services can streamline their operations and improve efficiency.” This prompt ensures the AI-generated content speaks directly to the business's needs and shows how your services align with their goals.
- Message Focus: The email body should always emphasize a clear value proposition—demonstrating the specific benefits of automation to the business. Additionally, it should include a strong Call to Action (CTA) that encourages the recipient to engage further, whether by scheduling a demo, setting up a call, or learning more about the services offered.
Using AI to generate subject lines and email drafts ensures that every outreach message is personalized, relevant, and effective, increasing the likelihood of engagement and conversion.
7. Organizing AI-Generated Content in Google Sheets
Objective: Centralize the AI-generated subject lines and email drafts for easy access during the final outreach step.
- Add Columns for AI Content:
- As part of the automation process, create dedicated columns in your Google Sheet to store the AI-generated subject lines and email drafts for each lead. This organization ensures that all content is easily accessible for the outreach team to review and send.
- Each lead should have a row with the following columns:
- Subject Line
- Email Draft
- This setup allows the outreach team to quickly reference and modify any content if necessary.
- Content Quality Checks:
- Implement a brief manual review process to ensure that the AI-generated content aligns with your brand tone and outreach objectives. This review can be done by the team before sending out the emails, ensuring quality and consistency across all communications.
- Additional AI Filters: To further ensure quality, you can integrate AI-powered tools to verify the grammar and tone of the content. These tools can flag any issues such as awkward phrasing, grammar mistakes, or content that doesn't align with your messaging goals.
- Regularly assess the effectiveness of the subject lines and email drafts by tracking metrics like open rates, response rates, and engagement, allowing you to refine the AI prompts and content for better results in future outreach campaigns.
By organizing the AI-generated content in a clear and easily accessible format within Google Sheets, and implementing a process for reviewing quality, the outreach process becomes streamlined, ensuring a higher success rate for your automated campaigns.
8. Targeted Outreach with Mailchimp or Gmail - Personalized Email Campaigns
Objective: Leverage enriched and parsed data to craft personalized email campaigns that improve engagement rates for outreach efforts.
- Integration with Google Sheets:
- Link the Google Sheet containing verified and enriched lead data to Mailchimp or Gmail for seamless data transfer.
- Ensure each lead’s personalization details (e.g., keywords, business type) are mapped to corresponding email template fields.
- Email Template Personalization:
- Dynamic Content: Use the parsed keywords and business descriptors to dynamically populate subject lines and email body text. For example:
- Subject Line: "Connect with Award-Winning Lawyers for Your Legal Needs"
- Email Body: Tailor introductions to include specific details like “family-owned” or “trusted by 100+ clients.”
- Segmentation: Group leads by attributes such as business type or location to further refine messaging.
- Campaign Automation:
- Set up email sequences to nurture leads over time. For instance:
- Day 1: Introduction email showcasing Bursa Hukum’s key features.
- Day 3: Follow-up email highlighting tailored legal services.
- Day 7: Client success story or testimonial to build trust.
- Performance Monitoring:
- Track key metrics like open rates, click-through rates (CTR), and response rates to measure campaign success.
- Use these insights to refine messaging and segmentation for future campaigns.
9. Email Drafting in MailChimp or Gmail - Automation Setup
Objective: Automatically create draft emails in MailChimp or Gmail, ready for sending or manual review.
- MailChimp or Gmail Module Configuration:
- Utilize tools like Make.com to connect MailChimp or Gmail with the Google Sheets containing enriched lead data.
- Key Setup:
- Pull subject lines and email bodies from the respective columns in Google Sheets.
- Attachments (Optional): Attach PDFs or resource links, such as service brochures or case studies.
- Drafting vs. Autopilot:
- Manual Review: Configure the system to save drafts in MailChimp or Gmail for a team member to review and edit before sending.
- Automated Sending: Set the MailChimp or Gmail module to auto-send emails upon drafting for a seamless and fully automated process.
10. Approval or Auto-Send Setup
This step adds a layer of flexibility to the outreach process, catering to preferences for manual oversight or complete automation.
Objective: Provide flexibility in the email sending process, allowing for manual review or automated delivery.
- Approval Workflow:
- Use a collaboration tool to notify team members when drafts are ready for review.
- Establish a standardized process for reviewing and approving emails, ensuring alignment with outreach goals.
- Auto-Send:
- For organizations prioritizing efficiency, automate email delivery directly from the Gmail drafts.
- Include safeguards to avoid sending errors, such as duplicate or incomplete drafts.
11. Optional Notifications - Stay Updated on Workflow Progress
Keeping the team informed about the workflow’s progress ensures accountability and opportunities for optimization.
Objective: Receive updates on the automation’s status and performance, ensuring timely monitoring and adjustments.
- Notification Module:
- Set up automated alerts via Slack or Asana or Monday, email, or other communication platforms to notify when key actions occur:
