Legal AI pricing, checked against the vendor pages
Harvey does not publish a price, a plan list or a seat minimum. Its website offers one path in: request a demo. Every Harvey AI cost you read online is a reported quote or an estimate, and those estimates run from about $399 to $2,800 per seat per month. Here is what can be verified, what the reported minimums do to a small firm's bill, and what a published flat price looks like instead.
Every CaseClerk price on this page is a published rate you can read on our pricing page, not a quote.
Upload the documents for one matter and ask questions across all of them. 25 pages on the house, no card.
Harvey AI does not publish its pricing. There is no pricing page, no rate card and no self-serve signup on harvey.ai. Access starts with a demo request, and the price is negotiated per organization, per seat, on an annual contract.
Reported figures cluster around $1,200 per seat per month for the core product, with higher numbers for bundles that include LexisNexis content, and a reported seat minimum of roughly 20 to 25 users. If those reports are accurate, the smallest Harvey contract runs about $288,000 a year before onboarding. Harvey has confirmed none of these numbers. If you need a price you can read today, CaseClerk charges a flat $99, $249 or $499 per month for the whole account.
Ask for the total contract value
Per seat per month hides the size of the commitment. Ask for the full annual figure for your exact seat count, including any minimum, and write it down next to the per seat price.
Ask what is inside the number
Get the module list and whether LexisNexis content, onboarding, training and support are included. Two Harvey quotes can differ by thousands a seat simply because one carries the research bundle.
Divide by the lawyers who will use it
If you pay for 20 seats and 7 attorneys will log in, your real cost per user is the total divided by 7. That is the only per seat number worth comparing across vendors.
Run one real matter through a flat priced tool
Before signing, put a live file through something you can pay for monthly. If most of what you wanted was answers out of documents you already hold, you now know how much platform you actually need.
Harvey is the larger platform and does far more. This table is for deciding which job you are paying for, and at what size of commitment.
| Harvey | CaseClerk | |
|---|---|---|
| Price visibility | No published price, plan list or seat minimum. Demo request and negotiated quote | Published: $99, $249 and $499 per month on the pricing page. A fourth Enterprise tier is quoted, and we say so |
| Billing model | Per seat, per month, on an annual or longer contract | Flat account price with a monthly page allowance, not per user |
| Reported minimum | Roughly 20 to 25 seats in buyer reports, not confirmed by Harvey | None. One account, one monthly price |
| Commitment | Annual contract at minimum in reported deals | Month to month, or a year for the price of six months |
| Legal research | Yes, including LexisNexis content through its integration. Harvey is stronger here | No. CaseClerk does not do case law research and does not claim to |
| Drafting and agents | Yes: drafting, Workflows, Agents and a Word add-in | No. It answers questions about documents you upload |
| Reading a whole matter | Yes, through Vault | Yes, up to 1,000 documents per case, and every answer names the document it came from |
| Security posture | SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, ISO 27701 and ISO 42001 listed on its site | Built for a single firm's matter files, with confidentiality agreements available on the Firm plan |
| Try before you buy | Demo on request | 25 pages and up to 5 documents, no card |
| Best for | Large firms and legal departments buying an enterprise AI platform for dozens or hundreds of lawyers | Solo and small firms whose real problem is a case file too big to read before the deadline |
Harvey module names and certifications are taken from harvey.ai. Every Harvey price and seat figure on this page is a third party report or buyer account, and Harvey has not confirmed any of them.
Harvey makes sense for a firm buying a platform
If you have 50 or more lawyers, a knowledge management team and a budget line for AI across drafting, research and review, Harvey's breadth is what you are paying for, and the seat minimum is not a burden.
Harvey makes sense if you already live in LexisNexis
Research with licensed content in the same place as your drafting and review is a real advantage. Firms that would buy that content anyway are pricing Harvey against a bundle they already value.
Think again if the minimum is bigger than your firm
A 5 attorney practice paying for a 20 seat floor is paying for 15 empty seats. At the reported $1,200 a seat that works out to more than $57,000 a year for each lawyer who actually uses it.
Think again if the job is document reading
Finding who is named across an intake packet, what a treating physician wrote about causation, or which exhibit mentions the indemnity cap are answered from the file you already have. That does not need an enterprise platform.
We collected the Harvey figures that appear most often on pages ranking for Harvey AI pricing. They do not converge on one number. They describe different tiers, different firm sizes and different years of reporting, and most trace back to a few secondhand accounts that get repeated until they read like a rate card.
| What is reported, and where it comes from | Implied cost per seat, per year |
|---|---|
| About $1,200 per seat per month for the core product, from a buyer account on r/legaltech repeated by several review sites | $14,400 |
| Roughly $2,400 per seat per month with LexisNexis content bundled | $28,800 |
| A tier structure of about $1,200 to $1,400 (core) up to $2,200 to $2,800 (top tier), attributed to Artificial Lawyer | $14,400 to $33,600 |
| A reduced scope tier near $399 per seat per month, from the same leaked thread | $4,788 |
| A Harvey spokesperson quoted in Fast Company: a few hundred dollars per seat per month, with large companies required to buy for at least 100 employees for at least a year | A few thousand dollars, on a 100 seat floor |
| A median customer spend of about $175,000 a year, reported by Costbench | Depends entirely on seat count |
The spokesperson quote is the only figure that came from Harvey on the record, and it is the vaguest of the lot. Notice that it does not contradict the bigger numbers as much as it seems to: a few hundred dollars a seat across a 100 seat floor is still a six figure contract. What every source agrees on is the shape of the deal. Per seat, annual, with a minimum. The per seat figure is the part you negotiate. The minimum is the part that decides whether a small firm can buy it at all.
This is the calculation that matters more than any per seat price. It uses the most repeated reported figures, $1,200 per seat per month and a 20 seat minimum, and assumes only the lawyers who will use it are counted. If your quote differs, swap in your numbers.
| Firm size | Harvey at the reported floor, per year | Per lawyer who uses it | CaseClerk, published, per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solo attorney | $288,000 | $288,000 | $594 on Solo, billed yearly |
| 5 attorneys | $288,000 | $57,600 | $1,494 on Professional, billed yearly |
| 10 attorneys | $288,000 | $28,800 | $2,994 on Firm, billed yearly |
| 20 attorneys | $288,000 | $14,400 | $2,994 on Firm, or an Enterprise quote at higher volume |
Two caveats keep this honest. First, the products are not equivalent: Harvey includes research, drafting and agents that CaseClerk does not offer, so this is not a like for like price comparison. Second, CaseClerk plans are sized by pages, not people, so the right tier depends on how much paper your matters produce. The point of the table is narrower. Below roughly 20 lawyers, the reported minimum, not the seat price, is what you are really buying.
A quote is fine as long as it is comparable. These questions are the ones that move the total, phrased so they are hard to answer loosely.
The last two are where small firms get caught. Per seat licensing feels reasonable while usage is growing and becomes expensive the year it is not.
Firms often come to Harvey because a matter arrived too big to read. A 3,000 page production. A medical file with a causation question buried in it. An intake packet that might name an adverse party. Those are document questions, and they are answered from documents you already hold, not from a research library or a drafting agent.
CaseClerk is built for that one job. Upload the documents for a matter into a vault, up to 1,000 files across 18 formats including scanned PDFs, Word, Excel and images. Ask questions in plain English across all of them. Each answer names the document it came from, so the associate checking it goes straight to the page instead of rereading the file.
The price is printed, not quoted: $99 a month for 2,500 pages, $249 for 10,000, $499 for 30,000, and a year costs the same as six months. There is no seat count and no minimum. You can put 25 pages of a real matter through it with no card, and if you are still pricing Harvey afterward, you will do it knowing exactly which part of the platform you need. If you are also weighing Thomson Reuters, our breakdown of CoCounsel pricing and what drives a Thomson Reuters quote uses the same method, and Legora pricing and its 10 seat minimum covers Harvey's closest enterprise rival.
Harvey does not publish a price. Access starts with a demo and a negotiated, per seat annual contract. The most repeated reported figure is about $1,200 per seat per month for the core product with a minimum of roughly 20 to 25 seats, which implies about $288,000 a year at the floor. Harvey has not confirmed these figures.
Reported monthly figures run from about $399 per seat for a reduced scope tier to $2,200 to $2,800 per seat for the top tier, with $1,200 the most commonly cited core price. Because Harvey sells annual contracts with a seat minimum, the monthly per seat figure understates what a firm actually commits to.
Harvey uses enterprise, sales-led pricing: per seat, per month, billed on an annual or longer contract and negotiated per organization. Price depends on seat count, modules, whether LexisNexis content is bundled, and contract length. There is no self-serve plan and no public rate card.
Harvey does not advertise a free trial or self-serve signup. Its website routes prospects to a demo request, and pilots are arranged through sales. If you want to test AI on your own documents first, CaseClerk offers 25 pages and up to 5 documents with no card required.
Harvey does not publish one, but buyer reports put the minimum at roughly 20 to 25 seats on a 12 month contract, and a Harvey spokesperson told Fast Company that large companies must buy for at least 100 employees for at least a year. Treat any minimum as a negotiating point and get it in writing.
Possibly, but the reported seat minimum is the obstacle. A 5 lawyer firm paying a 20 seat floor at the reported $1,200 per seat would spend about $57,600 per lawyer per year. Most small firms are better served by tools with published prices and no minimum, then adding a platform once the need is proven.
It is worth it when you need research, drafting, review and agents in one platform and can use most of the seats you pay for. It is hard to justify when the main job is reading large case files, because that work does not need a research bundle or an enterprise contract attached.
For reading and questioning a matter's documents, CaseClerk costs $99, $249 or $499 per month with no seat minimum, and every answer names its source document. It does not replace Harvey's research or drafting. For research and drafting from Thomson Reuters, see how CoCounsel is priced instead.
