Harvey vs Legora
A plain-English comparison to help you choose between them.
The enterprise-legal head-to-head, and a decision some firms now run as a structured bake-off. Harvey is the platform suite, its Assistant chat and drafting interface alongside Vault as the document engine for bulk analysis, Knowledge, Agents and Contract Intelligence, sold firm-wide through procurement; Legora, from Stockholm's Legora AB, is the collaborative workspace whose signature is tabular review, documents down the rows, questions across the columns, with research that cites and drafting from the firm's own precedents. Pick Harvey when Vault-scale document operations and the broader suite match your matters; pick Legora when tabular review fits how your teams actually work through documents, and let a pilot on real matters decide.
Side by side
- Summary
Harvey is an enterprise generative-AI platform for legal and professional-services work.
- Best for
- Enterprise legal research, drafting, summarisation and document review
- Vault: bulk-analysing up to 100,000 documents per set
- Firm-wide deployments bought through an enterprise agreement
- Cost
- Enterprise
- Ease
- Openness
- Hosted service
- Data
- Harvey holds confidential matter material at scale, so the data questions belong inside procurement rather than after it: agree vault access, retention and what may leave the firm with your risk and compliance owners as part of the agreement, and treat rollout as an access-control decision as much as a purchase.
- Summary
Legora is collaborative AI for lawyers, built by the Swedish company Legora AB of Stockholm: document review at scale, legal research with citations, and drafting that works from a firm's own precedents, delivered as a workspace the firm adopts rather than a chat window beside the work.
- Best for
- Tabular review of many documents against consistent questions
- Legal research with citations to the underlying sources
- Drafting from a firm's own precedents and playbooks
- Cost
- Enterprise
- Ease
- Openness
- Hosted service
- Data
- Matter material sits with a legal-specific vendor, Legora AB of Stockholm, under enterprise agreements; confidentiality, matter isolation and retention belong in the procurement conversation, which is where legal buyers want them anyway.

Common questions
How do firms actually evaluate these two?
Side by side on their own matters, sometimes as a structured bake-off. Both vendors demonstrate well; the discriminating evidence is your documents, your precedents and your associates' working patterns. Define the evaluation matters, the tasks and the quality bar before either vendor's team shapes them for you.
What is genuinely different about the products?
The organising surface. Harvey's Vault centres on storing and bulk-analysing large document sets inside a suite of assistants and agents. Legora's tabular review turns a document set into a grid of consistent questions and grounded answers, a shape review teams recognise immediately. Both draft from firm precedent.
Neither publishes pricing, so how does budgeting work?
Through procurement on both sides: firm size, seats, matters and deployment scope set the number. Neither offers self-serve. The comparable figure is the pilot's cost in partner and associate time, which is real, and worth spending once rather than repeating after a wrong platform choice.
