Based on each vendor's publicly available positioning. Products change. Verify current capabilities with each vendor before deciding.
When to choose Harvey
Consider Harvey if you are a large firm or enterprise legal department standardizing on a broad AI assistant across many practice groups, and an established enterprise vendor relationship matters more than document-native output.
When to choose SwiftLaw
Choose SwiftLaw when the deliverable is the document: funds, deals, contracts. Matters run end to end with native tracked-changes Word output. Your attorneys hold the gates. Your documents never leave your infrastructure.
What is the main difference between SwiftLaw and Harvey?
The unit of work. Harvey is positioned as an AI assistant and workspace for legal questions and document analysis across a large organization. SwiftLaw runs the matter itself: intake, research, drafting, negotiation, and attorney sign-off on one pipeline. The output is native Word documents with tracked changes, not answers in a chat interface.
Which is better for fund formation?
SwiftLaw is purpose-built for the fund document set: LPAs, PPMs, subscription agreements, and side letters drafted from a term sheet, with MFN and side-letter obligations reconciled across the investor base. Generalist platforms cover fund work as one practice area among many, not as a dedicated engine.
Can a small legal team use SwiftLaw?
Yes. SwiftLaw's platform is $10,000 per year, flat, with no per-seat lock-in, so a two-lawyer fund manager or a boutique firm can run on it from day one. Long-horizon research runs are usage-priced on top. Enterprise platforms are typically sold on organization-wide contracts.
