Harvey processes 5.8 million documents daily for 142,000 professionals in 60 countries. The platform uses a multi-model architecture to route tasks to the best-performing models from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Mistral. For M&A due diligence, the Vault product allows teams to store 100,000 files and perform extraction across 10,000 files in 500 columns. Bridgewater reported a 95% time reduction on trading-agreement reviews, while Ashurst reduced lease summaries from 3 to 4 hours to 3 to 4 minutes. The company has raised over $660 million in recent investment rounds to scale its agentic capabilities. For M&A practices, the platform is useful for identifying missing representations or unusual risk provisions automatically. Harvey’s Agents product enables firms to create repeatable, multi-step legal workflows without code. The platform contains 597 pre-built agents across 33 practice areas, which include tasks to analyze depositions or perform gap analysis of the EU AI Act. Firms have built over 25,000 custom workflows, and the system processes over 700,000 daily agent tasks.
Deployment and workflow automation
The Assistant interface provides a conversational workbench for drafting and analysis. It handles 11 file format families and supports file uploads up to 500 MB. Users can apply one prompt across 50 files using batch multi-document editing. The system includes inline [N] markers that map to specific source documents and pages. This tool allows attorneys to edit Word documents with tracked changes and version history directly. You know the friction of switching between document management systems and research tools. Harvey integrates with iManage, NetDocuments, SharePoint, Google Drive, and Box. The Knowledge product accesses 500+ curated sources across 90+ jurisdictions, including 9 million US case law opinions from CourtListener. However, Web Search via the Parallel provider processes data in the US only, regardless of the workspace region. This limitation impacts international users who require localized search results. The Playbook feature codifies institutional positions on contract clauses as rules with three outcomes: Acceptable, Needs Review, or Unacceptable. Carvana used these playbooks to convert 26 contract templates, resulting in an 80% reduction in drafting time and 800 hours saved. The platform also supports multi-language drafting and analysis in languages including French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese. The platform also has product naming inconsistencies, such as the confusion between "Workflow Builder" and "Agent Builder."
Costs and suitability for large firms
Implementation requires significant internal resources to configure playbooks and upload templates. Harvey targets AmLaw 200 firms and large in-house departments, as it does not provide a free trial or self-service onboarding. The pricing model follows an annual enterprise license structure rather than a per-user SaaS model.
| Capability | Specification |
|---|---|
| Vault file limit | 100,000 files |
| Vault storage limit | 100 GB |
| Review Table scale | 10,000 files across 500 columns |
| Agent capacity | 597 pre-built agents |
| Minimum seat count | 20 seats |
| Implementation time | 60 to 120 days |
Because Harvey requires a direct sales engagement and a structured pilot deployment, firms must prepare for an implementation process that lasts between 60 and 120 days depending on the complexity of their specific workflows. The core enterprise seat costs approximately $1,200 per user per month, making the annual floor roughly $288,000 for 20 seats. Implementation fees range from $10,000 to $100,000, while per-user training can cost up to $2,000. Smaller-firm tiers exist at approximately $399 per seat per month, and LexisNexis-bundled tiers reach $2,400 per seat. Because the platform lacks a self-serve tier, solo practitioners and small firms should look to alternatives like Clio or Spellbook. Harvey is the most capable platform for high-volume firms that need to automate repetitive tasks, but it requires mandatory partner review to manage hallucination risks. Will smaller firms eventually gain access through more affordable third-party integrations? Use Harvey for leverage in large-scale document review and complex transactional work.
