How Sidebar Compares

Starting from A$100 a month for the whole firm, where other legal AI charges for every lawyer. More usage, with no per-lawyer caps. Tasks handed off in your workspace, not done with you in another app. And in early access, we set it up for your firm.

Checked 2 October 2026. Most vendors don't publish prices; figures marked “reported” are third-party estimates, multiplied out at each product's reported minimum seats. Microsoft's prices and Copilot details are from Microsoft's own pages. US-dollar prices are converted at A$1.44 per US$1 (OFX, 1 October 2026), so they are approximate. Prices exclude GST and any subscription the product needs to run. A dash means the feature is not offered or we could not find it in the vendor's public material. Microsoft Copilot also caps its Researcher agent at 25 queries per user a month. Products and names belong to their owners; this is not an endorsement by any of them.
