Check before buying: Prices for the law firm platform are not public, so request a quote and ask how fees are split when a case is accepted; the press reported an initial payment plus later fees in 2021. Check your bar's rules on case referrals, fee sharing and client solicitation. Darrow states it does not use personal or privileged data, and its browser add-on Torch is not offered in the EEA, UK or Switzerland.

Check before buying: Prices are only available by quote, so clarify the license model and which modules are included.

Check how the platform fits your document management system and confirm the confidentiality commitments against your professional secrecy rules.

• Nightly case audit surfaces overlooked injuries, incomplete imaging and claim opportunities

Compared with CoCounsel Legal

• Strong in the same markets as CoCounsel Legal: United States.

Check before buying: Ask for a quote first, since no prices are published. The security page states that data sits in AWS databases in the United States and is encrypted at rest and in transit. We found no subprocessor list, retention terms or statement on model training. Check state bar rules on AI use, call recording consent and, for Illinois or Colorado clients, state AI and privacy laws. Request written security evidence, because the homepage and the security page describe SOC 2 differently.

Filevine is US case management software for law firms, government legal offices and in-house counsel. It covers matters, intake, documents, billing and e-signature, and its LOIS AI adds legal research, drafting and analysis of depositions and medical records.

Key functions

• LOIS Legal Research searches case law and verifies citations
• LOIS for Word reviews and drafts contracts inside Word
• Depo Copilot and Depo Summaries analyze testimony live and afterwards

Compared with CoCounsel Legal

• Offers a free trial; we found none for CoCounsel Legal.
• Strong in the same markets as CoCounsel Legal: United States.

Check before buying: Pricing is custom, so request a quote that separates the platform from LOIS modules. The security page names private AWS, Azure and Google Cloud instances but no regions, and it does not say whether customer data trains AI models, so ask for both in writing. The public data processing agreement lists a subprocessor page. Plan lawyer review of every AI output.

Compared with CoCounsel Legal

• Offers a free trial; we found none for CoCounsel Legal.
• Names 4 security certificates, CoCounsel Legal 2.
• Strong in the same markets as CoCounsel Legal: United States.

Check before buying: Pricing is quoted individually, so ask how content scope and seat count drive the price and whether the Microsoft and document management integrations require additional subscriptions. LexisNexis states that customer data is not used to train AI models. At our September 2026 review, no hosting location was published for the product, so request it together with retention terms. For US work, confirm which federal and state content your plan includes.

• Supio Intake captures leads by voice, SMS, web and email and scores them

Compared with CoCounsel Legal

• Strong in the same markets as CoCounsel Legal: United States.

Check before buying: Pricing is not published, so request quotes for both models and ask for a pilot on a few cases, since no free trial is listed. Medical records are health data: confirm HIPAA terms, the data processing agreement and subprocessors, and ask whether customer data trains models, which the security and privacy pages do not state. Plan attorney review of every AI draft.

Compared with CoCounsel Legal

• Strong in the same markets as CoCounsel Legal: United States.

Check before buying: Check how your matter data is stored: the vendor mentions bring-your-own-storage, but hosting regions, subprocessors and a data processing agreement were not stated on the pages we reviewed in October 2026. For US litigation, confirm court rules on AI use and certification of filings, such as Rule 11, and any local standing orders. Clarify the number of licensed users, since the public price is per user.

• Strong in the same markets as CoCounsel Legal: United States.

Check before buying: Ask which model and which hosting region your deployment will use, because the vendor lets customers choose and lists no fixed regions. Check the data protection terms under the Swiss FADP and GDPR, as the privacy policy mentions both and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Test how ethical-wall rules from your document system map into search results, since confidentiality between matters is central for law firms.
