TriSearch

What TriSearch does

TriSearch is an Australian private SaaS company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Sydney that provides an all-in-one technology platform for licensed conveyancers and property lawyers. The platform integrates three pillars: triConvey (practice management software covering matter management, tasks and workflows, forms and precedents, contract preparation, billing and trust accounting, settlement financials, and reporting — powered by Smokeball on AWS infrastructure), the triSearch platform (a national search offering more than 4,500 property, corporate, and personal searches), and a suite of electronic conveyancing tools (triVOI for verification of identity, eCOS for electronic contracts of sale, triSign electronic signatures powered by DocuSign, Securexchange for secure document and bank account exchange with a AUD $1,000,000 funds guarantee, and triSettle outsourced settlement). Custom workflows are configured for NSW, QLD, and VIC conveyancing practices.

The commercial model is anchored on a freemium dynamic: triConvey is provided at $0 when customers route their searches exclusively through triSearch, with a $550/quarter software fee ($2,200/year) triggered if minimum search spend of $1,100 per invoicing quarter is not met. Search and eConveyancing tools are billed pay-per-use on weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or direct-debit cadences. The Compliance Centre (AML/CTF Tranche 2) and additional compliance checks are offered complimentary through 30 June 2026 to drive adoption ahead of the regulatory deadline. The company holds NSW Law Society Trust Accounting certifications, ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type 2, and ARNECC VOI compliance, and operates within the broader InfoTrack corporate group. TriSearch has served 1,000+ conveyancing and law firms across Australia, with the AML/CTF Compliance Centre demonstrated to over 8,000 practitioners, and was ranked in the top 10 of Australia's most innovative companies in 2024 (Australian Financial Review).

Revenue model

1. Search Platform Fees (Usage-Based): TriSearch charges conveyancers for searches ordered through its platform. Customers can set up weekly, fortnightly, or monthly invoicing, or use direct debit via credit card. Search fees can be passed on to clients as disbursements. This is the primary revenue driver that enables the free software model.
2. triConvey Software (Freemium Anchor): triConvey practice management software is provided at $0 when conveyancers exclusively conduct their searches through triSearch. This acts as a freemium anchor, converting search platform users into locked-in customers. If users do not meet the minimum spend criteria ($1,100 incl GST per invoicing quarter), a $550/quarter software fee applies, totaling $2,200/year.
3. eConveyancing Tools (Transactional): eConveyancing tools (triVOI, triSign, eCOS, Securexchange, triSettle) are charged on a per-use/transaction basis. Pricing is competitive and transparently presented before ordering. No subscription or platform fees.
4. AML/CTF Compliance Centre: The Compliance Centre is provided complimentary with no subscription fees, platform fees, or set-up costs. Revenue is generated indirectly through search orders, as the solution is free when searching through triSearch. KYC, KYB, PEPs, Sanctions, and Adverse Media checks are included in the bundled cost of the AML onboarding workflow.

Direct peers

• Smokeball: Australia's most popular conveyancing practice management software and TriSearch's core technology partner (powers triConvey). Directly comparable as conveyancing PMS, with overlapping customer base and similar ARNECC/NSW Law Society compliance posture — making it both a partner and the closest direct competitor.
• LawWare: Australian legal practice management software serving conveyancing and broader law firm workflows. Comparable product category (legal PMS), comparable target market (Australian small-to-mid law firms), and a substitution alternative for triConvey.
• GlobalX: Australian provider of property, corporate, and personal searches plus legal information services. Direct overlap with TriSearch's search platform across the same 4,500+ document categories and same conveyancing buyer.
• LEAP Legal Software: Leading Australian legal practice management software serving conveyancing and broader law firm workflows. Comparable target customer (Australian law firms), comparable practice management + legal form automation offering, and a credible alternative to triConvey for property lawyers doing conveyancing work.
• InfoTrack: Australian legal technology platform providing property searches, settlement, and e-conveyancing tools. Part of the same corporate group as TriSearch and a direct overlap in search and PEXA-related settlement workflows.

Others

• DocuSign: Provides the e-signature infrastructure behind triSign. While a partner rather than a competitor at the integration level, DocuSign's broader agreement workflow capabilities overlap with parts of TriSearch's e-conveyancing suite and represent an adjacent enabling technology in the same conveyancing buyer journey.

Broad incumbents

• Dye & Durham: Global legal technology platform that owns InfoTrack (and by extension the triSearch group). Operates broadly in legal practice management, search, and e-conveyancing across multiple geographies; provides strategic context for the parent's capital and roadmap.
• PEXA: Australia's dominant electronic conveyancing platform. TriSearch integrates into PEXA for settlement; comparable as an e-conveyancing infrastructure provider serving the same conveyancer base, though PEXA operates upstream as the network rather than competing for the practice management seat.

Emerging players

• CITEC Confirm: Australian provider of property, identity, and corporate searches for conveyancers and lawyers. Direct overlap with the triSearch search platform and a competitor for the same search-volume revenue stream.
• NetLaw / PracticeEvolve: Australian legal practice management platform with conveyancing workflow capabilities. Comparable offering and customer base, though historically stronger in mid-market law firms than conveyancing specialists.
