Frequently asked questions

Litmas AI is an AI-powered litigation management platform built for litigators. It assists with legal research, motion drafting, evidence organization, and case analysis, helping attorneys save hours of routine work while maintaining legal-grade accuracy. Unlike generic AI tools, Litmas AI connects your case documents, evidence, and verified case law into a single end-to-end litigation workflow where every output is fully sourced and traceable.

Litmas AI was built by practicing litigators. Our co-founder and CEO, Jason H. Weber, spent 14 years as a commercial litigator before building Litmas AI. That practitioner background shaped every feature in the platform. This isn’t a generic AI tool adapted for legal work — it was designed from the ground up around how litigation actually works, with input from practicing attorneys at every step of development.

Litmas AI is designed for litigation-focused attorneys, in-house counsel, and insurance defense teams seeking a faster, more reliable way to research and draft legal documents. Our primary customers are small and mid-sized firms, including contingency fee practices such as personal injury, commercial litigation, insurance defense, debt collection, and family law. We also work with larger litigation teams that want faster, more consistent motion drafting.

Litmas AI serves attorneys in all 50 U.S. states, covering both federal and state jurisdictions. The platform is actively expanding coverage and deepening its library of litigation documents across all jurisdictions.

Both, and more. Litmas AI combines legal research, motion drafting, evidence organization, and case mapping into a single integrated workflow. Traditional tools force you to switch between separate platforms for research, drafting, and document management. Litmas AI eliminates that context-switching by connecting everything in one place. You can research, organize evidence, and draft from the same case file without toggling between disconnected systems.

Litmas AI was built by litigators for litigation work. Rather than answering from general knowledge, it grounds every answer in two things — your case file and verified U.S. court opinions — combined through Litmas AI's proprietary legal reasoning layer. Each output is assembled from those sources, every case, statute and pincite is validated against them, and each citation is linked inline so you can open it and judge its context and applicability yourself.

The practical difference is the workflow. Litmas AI lets you guide it step by step through your reasoning, keeps evidence mapped to the elements you have to prove, and shows its sources at every stage — so the output is file-ready and you can verify it before you file.

No. Litmas AI enhances their work by automating repetitive research and formatting, so your team can focus on strategy and analysis. See how AI supports attorneys instead of replacing them.

No. Litmas AI handles manual, repetitive work so your team can focus on strategy, client relationships, and substantive legal thinking. Junior attorneys who use tools like Litmas AI can handle more complex work earlier in their careers. Read more about why AI belongs alongside your team, not in place of it.

Every case, statute and pincite Litmas AI produces is checked against verified U.S. court opinions through a dual-layer validation system before it reaches you. If a citation cannot be validated against a source, it is removed rather than shown. Each citation that does appear is linked inline, so you can open the authority and judge its weight and applicability to your matter yourself.

Litmas AI is built to prevent fabricated citations reaching your work. Every case, statute and pincite is validated against trusted legal sources, and every output carries inline pincite citations you can click through to confirm the source, its context and its applicability without leaving the page. Output is file-ready — and verifying it before you file remains your professional responsibility.

Litmas AI grounds its answers in verified U.S. court opinions and the case documents in your own workspace, combined through Litmas AI's proprietary legal reasoning layer. Every output is traceable to the source it came from, with inline citations you can open and check.

Yes — and you should. Litmas AI gives you a pincite for every fact and case-law reference in its output, linked inline so you can open the underlying authority in full context without switching to a separate research platform. The tools are there to make checking the work fast and complete; the professional judgment about what you file remains yours.

Because Litmas AI was built by a litigator who ran into the same problem. It is purpose-built for litigation rather than adapted from a general-purpose assistant: every case and statute is validated against verified U.S. court opinions through dual-layer validation, a citation that cannot be validated is removed, and every citation that appears is linked inline so you can open it and judge it yourself. Rather than take our word for it, book a demo and watch it run on one of your own matters.

The platform targets industry-standard uptime of 99.9 percent or higher. Infrastructure monitoring, automated backups, and redundancy ensure your cases and documents remain accessible at all times.

Litmas AI's case law is updated on an ongoing basis, with frequency varying by jurisdiction and court. If currency in a particular jurisdiction matters to your matter, ask us and we will tell you the cadence for that court.

You can upload the full range of litigation documents you would work with on a case: complaints, discovery responses, deposition transcripts, contracts, medical records, correspondence, affidavits, and more.

Yes. Litmas AI is designed for document-heavy litigation where you may have extensive case files. The platform processes and analyzes your entire file to provide full case context across all its features.

No. Litmas AI can work alongside your existing research and case management tools. Many customers continue to use platforms like Westlaw or Lexis for traditional research while using Litmas AI for motion drafting, evidence organization, and case-specific AI assistance.

Supported formats include Word (.doc, .docx), PowerPoint (.ppt, .pptx), Excel (.xls, .xlsx), Text (.txt), HTML (.html, .htm), PDF (.pdf), and Images (.png, .jpg, .jpeg, .tiff). Upload limits are 3,000 pages and 500 MB per document.

Yes. Every new Litmas user receives a personalized onboarding session. The platform also includes built-in tutorials and guided demos for each major feature.

Yes. Litmas AI provides a unified case view across your team, so partners, associates, and paralegals can all work from the same organized evidence and case analysis.

Litmas AI is designed to be intuitive for legal professionals at all levels. Associates and paralegals frequently become power users because the platform reduces the most tedious, time-consuming parts of their work.

We recommend starting with a demo so decision-makers can see the platform in action on real litigation scenarios. The combination of citation validation, evidence organization, and drafting speed tends to resonate with even the most skeptical partners.

Litmas AI is a cloud-based platform that does not require installation on local machines. There is no complex IT setup or integration project required. Your team can access the platform through a web browser.

Litmas AI offers a suite of litigation-specific tools:

AI Legal Research Assistant — Delivers fast, cited answers to legal questions with case law and facts from your case file. Every fact and case reference includes pincite citations you can verify instantly.

Evidence Mapper — Breaks each cause of action into individual elements and maps the facts from your uploaded documents to each element you need to prove.

Document Studio — Generates tailored, file-ready motions and responses in minutes with supporting facts and validated case law already organized.

Litiverse — A visual knowledge graph that maps relationships between parties, entities, claims, timelines, and facts.

Case Law Validation — Dual-layer verification checks every case and statute against trusted legal sources.

Pre-Suit Module — Enables attorneys to draft complaints and demand letters in a structured, jurisdiction-aware workflow.

Yes. Litmas AI can draft motions, pleadings, and responses tailored to your jurisdiction. The platform uses your uploaded case documents and validated case law to produce motion drafts tied to your specific facts. You maintain full editorial control and can review every section before submission. Attorneys using Litmas AI typically reduce motion drafting time by 60 to 80 percent.

Litmas AI can assist with a wide range of litigation documents, including motions for summary judgment, motions to dismiss, motions to compel, discovery objections, complaints, responsive pleadings, demand letters, and more. The platform generates tailored drafts based on your uploaded case documents and jurisdiction-specific case law.

Evidence Mapper automatically surfaces facts from your uploaded files, breaks each cause of action into its individual legal elements, and maps the available evidence to each element you need to prove. You can quickly see what evidence you have, what’s missing, and where to focus your discovery efforts. You can also mark elements as “proven” and search for specific types of facts.

Yes. Because the AI Assistant uses every document you upload to understand the full context of your case, it can generate targeted interrogatories, requests for production, requests for admission, and deposition questions, all tied directly to the elements you need to prove.

The Litiverse is a visual knowledge graph that maps the relationships between parties, entities, facts, claims, and evidence across your entire case. It helps you see connections, leverage points, and patterns that might be difficult to spot when reviewing documents manually.

Yes. Litmas AI supports local rule formatting to help ensure your outputs meet the specific requirements of your jurisdiction. The platform is designed for professional use in active cases, so court-readiness is built into the workflow.

Yes. Evidence Mapper shows you exactly what evidence you have and where the gaps are relative to each element of your case. The AI Assistant can also generate specific, relevant deposition questions tied directly to elements that need to be proven.

Yes. Evidence Mapper provides a structured view of the factual data points available in your case, mapped to each element of each cause of action. By seeing which elements are supported by evidence and which are lacking, you can make informed decisions about trial, mediation, settlement, and remaining discovery.

Yes. Motions, memos, and any other documents generated in Litmas AI can be exported as Microsoft Word (.docx) files. PDF export is coming soon.

Yes. Litmas AI can integrate with most case or practice management systems through APIs, including Clio, Filevine, MyCase, and similar platforms.

Absolutely. You can submit feature requests or product feedback directly through the Contact section inside the platform or by emailing sales@litmas.ai.

We provide hands-on support including a dedicated Customer Success Manager during onboarding. Our team understands litigation workflows and can help you integrate Litmas AI into your practice effectively.

Litmas AI offers subscription plans designed for litigation practices of different sizes. You can view our pricing plans here. To get more specific pricing details tailored to your firm, we recommend booking a demo where we can walk you through the platform and discuss the plan that fits your needs.

We are committed to transparent, fair pricing and will always communicate any changes clearly and in advance.

Yes. For firms evaluating Litmas AI across multiple attorneys or practice areas, we set up a dedicated trial period so your team can evaluate the platform on your cases. Book a demo to discuss whether a trial makes sense for your firm.

Attorneys using Litmas AI typically reduce motion drafting time by 60 to 80 percent. For contingency firms, this means handling more cases and reaching resolution faster. For hourly firms, it means offering competitive flat fees, improving realization rates, and winning business on value. At $125 per case, most attorneys recover the cost within a single drafting session.

Contingency firms don’t bill by the hour, so every hour spent on manual drafting and research is time you can’t recover. Litmas AI helps you handle more cases in less time, reach resolution faster, and improve per-case economics.

Case limits depend on your subscription plan. Per Case Plan allows unlimited cases billed at $125 per case per month. Unlimited and Enterprise plans have no case limits.

There is no strict limit on documents per case. Each case includes up to 5,000 pages. Additional pages beyond 5,000 are billed at $0.01 per page. This is a one-time fee per upload.

Yes. Litmas AI subscriptions are flexible and can be canceled at any time. Your account remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. There are no long-term commitments required.

Yes. Litmas AI offers volume discounts for firms with multiple attorneys. Firms with five or more attorneys may qualify for discounted pricing. Please contact our team to discuss available pricing options.

Yes. Litmas AI offers a 7-day free trial so you can run real litigation work through the platform before you pay. No long-term commitment is required to start the trial.

Seven days. That is enough time to open a case, upload your documents, and draft an actual motion, so you judge the output on your own work.

Yes. A credit card is required to start the 7-day free trial. You are not charged during the trial, but if you do not cancel before it ends, your card is automatically charged $125 per month.

Open a case, upload your case documents, and draft from it, including motions, fact organization, and citation-backed output with pincites back to your source documents. During the trial you can work one standard case.

The trial covers one standard case and includes a support seat for your paralegal, case manager, etc.

When the 7 days end, if you have not cancelled, your card is charged $125 per month and your case continues on the standard per-case plan. You can upgrade to another plan at any time as your needs change, and firm-wide plans are available; book a demo to discuss one.

Your drafts are generated and stored inside the platform during the trial, but you cannot download them on the free trial. To keep and use your work, you will need to become a Litmas AI customer by upgrading to a paid plan.

Yes. Trial accounts run on the same closed-loop platform as paid accounts. Your discovery, transcripts, and case documents stay inside a secure system, not a consumer AI tool.

No. You can start with the free 7-day trial and then pay per case, month to month, with no annual commitment required. Annual plans and firm-wide plans are also available if you want them, so you can scale up on the terms that fit your practice.

The free trial is hands-on access for an individual attorney to run a case. Litmas AI offers per-case, annual, and firm-wide plans, so a single litigator can start small on a per-case plan and the firm can move to a firm-sized plan when ready. To set up a firm-wide plan, book a demo and we will scope it with you.

No. A demo is a guided walkthrough with our team. The free trial is hands-on access to draft from your own case record for 7 days.

Run an active case you know well. Upload the full record, draft a motion you would otherwise write by hand, and click through every pincite back to your source documents. The trial is designed to be judged on your real work, not a sample file.

You can sign up for your Free Trial here. Log onto the platform, open a case, upload your documents, and start drafting immediately! 

Traditional research platforms are powerful research tools, but they were not built for end-to-end litigation workflows. They don’t organize your evidence, map facts to elements of your claims, or draft motions from your case file. Litmas AI combines research, evidence organization, and drafting into a single workflow with validated outputs. Many customers use Litmas AI alongside Westlaw or Lexis.

Many AI-assisted legal tools provide general chat experiences or focus on isolated tasks. Litmas AI is built specifically around litigation workflows, connecting your case documents, evidence, and case law into a single drafting pipeline. Every output is fully sourced and designed for use in active cases. Litmas AI’s dual-layer citation validation addresses the hallucination problem that users of other platforms frequently report. Read our litigator’s guide to evaluating legal AI tools.

Lexis AI is a general AI layer built on top of an existing research platform. Litmas AI was purpose-built for litigation from the ground up, offering deeper case-specific context, evidence organization, case mapping, and integrated motion drafting workflows.

The platform is purpose-built for the specific demands of litigation: accuracy, traceability, and outputs you can actually file. We encourage you to book a demo and see it work on a real case.

Using AI in litigation raises real professional-responsibility questions, and the answer to all of them starts in the same place: the filing is the attorney's, whatever tool produced it. Litmas AI is built for that. Every output is sourced, every case and statute is validated against verified U.S. court opinions, and every citation is linked inline so you can check it in context before you rely on it. The platform is designed to support your professional judgment and your duty to supervise the work — not to substitute for either.

Attorneys have been sanctioned for filing documents containing AI-fabricated citations. Litmas AI is built specifically to prevent that: dual-layer validation checks every case, statute and pincite against trusted legal sources, and inline pincites let you confirm each one in context before it goes out. Responsibility for what you file remains yours — Litmas AI gives you file-ready output, the tools to verify it, and the traceability to show your work.

No. Litmas AI assists with legal research and drafting; it does not provide legal advice and does not replace professional judgment. Output is file-ready and every citation is verifiable inline — confirming them before submission remains your responsibility.

Yes. Data security and client confidentiality are foundational to Litmas AI. Your uploaded case documents and work product are protected with enterprise-grade encryption and access controls. We understand that attorneys have professional ethical obligations regarding client data, and our platform is built to meet those requirements.

No. Your workspace data remains private and is never used to retrain AI models. Your case data is used solely to power your case analysis within Litmas AI.

All data is stored on secure U.S.-based servers with AES-256 encryption at rest.

Yes. Litmas AI has completed a SOC 2 examination and an independent HIPAA compliance audit. Our systems use enterprise-grade encryption and access controls.

Yes. Your data is encrypted, isolated to your workspace, and never shared with other users or used for model training. We recommend reviewing our Privacy Policy for full details.

Your data will remain available for a limited retention period so you can export any documents or case materials. After this period, all case data and uploaded documents are permanently deleted from our systems.

Litmas AI was built for litigation from the ground up, and criminal defense is a dedicated practice area inside the platform, not a generic AI tool adapted for legal use. Every workflow, from discovery review through the motion to suppress, is built around how defense attorneys actually work the file.

Litmas AI is built for criminal defense attorneys handling felony and misdemeanor matters, including DUI, assault, and drug charges, as well as federal practitioners navigating conspiracy, fraud, and drug trafficking cases. It’s built for white-collar defense specialists managing high-document, high-stakes matters, and for any defense attorney who files motions to suppress, sentencing briefs, or trial strategy memos and needs associate-level research depth without the associate cost.

Yes. Litmas AI is a closed-loop platform: your discovery, police reports, and witness statements stay inside a secure system built for sensitive legal work. These documents are in a privately housed server with enterprise-grade encryption and access controls, meaning your client’s files are never exposed to public models or used for training outside your case.

Your documents are stored inside a privately housed server with enterprise-grade encryption and access controls. They’re never used to train models outside your case, and they’re never exposed to public AI systems. Only your case work uses them.

It ingests all of your discovery and organizes every fact across the case, so you stop reviewing a binder one document at a time. It maps those facts to legal elements, surfaces what you have and what you’re missing, and drafts citation-backed motions in minutes instead of hours.

Yes. Litmas AI generates citation-backed suppression motions in minutes, tied directly to the facts of your stop, search, or interrogation. Every argument is grounded in your case file and backed by verified case law, ready for your review before filing.

Yes. Litmas AI processes evidence documentation to surface gaps in the chain of custody, the kind of break that can otherwise go unnoticed until trial prep. Every gap it finds is tied directly to the source document, so you can act on it early instead of discovering it too late.

Drafting a motion in one hour instead of four on a $1,500 DUI case moves your effective rate from $375 an hour to $1,500 an hour on that matter. Litmas AI increases your margin on every flat fee case without raising your rates.

A thorough, citation-backed suppression motion puts real pressure on the prosecution’s case and preserves the argument for appeal, work that pays off even on a flat fee. Litmas AI makes that level of thoroughness achievable without the hours it normally takes.

Yes. Discovery-stage work often determines the strength of a federal case long before trial, and white-collar matters are especially document-heavy. Litmas AI processes high volumes of discovery, surfaces the facts that matter, and verifies citations and formatting for federal courts alongside all 50 states.

Harvey was built for corporate transactions: contracts, due diligence, deal work. Litmas AI was built for litigation. The two platforms solve different problems for different practices.

Funding and reputation reflect what Harvey is known for in corporate law. That reputation does not transfer to litigation. When your work involves deposition transcripts, filed motions, and live case deadlines, you need a platform built for that workflow. Harvey was not built for litigation.

No. Harvey mandates firm-wide enrollment, paid upfront annually. With Litmas AI, only the attorneys doing litigation work subscribe. You pay for what your litigation practice actually uses.

Harvey quotes a firm-wide annual subscription. Litmas AI starts at $125 per case per month, no annual contract, no firm-wide mandate.

No. Harvey was built for transactional law, contract review, due diligence, deal support. Litmas AI was built for litigation. Those are different practices with different workflows, and the tools reflect that. If you litigate, Litmas AI covers the full lifecycle from pre-suit intake through appeals, including pincites to your case record and jurisdiction-compliant formatting that Harvey does not offer. If your work is transactional, Harvey is the right fit. The question is not which platform does more, it is which one was built for your practice.

No. Harvey does not have a pre-suit module. Litmas AI covers demand letters, client intake, and privileged communications before a case is filed. No other AI platform on the market offers this.

No. Harvey cannot cite specific testimony back to a page and line number in your deposition transcript. Litmas AI does. Every fact in a Litmas AI draft traces back to the exact source document.

No. Harvey does not format output to match the filing rules of each U.S. court. Litmas AI does. Every drafted motion comes formatted to the specific rules of the court where it will be filed, across all 50 states and federal jurisdictions.

Harvey serves large corporate practices that need contract and deal tools. Litmas AI serves litigators. A firm’s size does not determine which platform fits, their practice area does.

Harvey was built for enterprise transactional practices and prices accordingly, firm-wide, annual, all upfront. Litmas AI was built for litigators. You pay only for the attorneys who need it, and the per-case and unlimited plans give you the flexibility to match costs to how your firm actually works. No firm-wide mandate. No annual commitment.

Yes. Harvey handles your deal team. It does not handle live case fact management, pincites to deposition testimony, or court-compliant motion drafting. Those are litigation-specific workflows. If your firm litigates, Litmas AI covers what Harvey does not, from Pre-Suit intake through Appeals.

Harvey runs research against its database. Litmas AI runs research against your case. Upload your entire case record and the results come back filtered through your specific fact pattern. Litmas AI also connects that research directly to your Evidence Mapper, so the case law lands on the elements it supports, not in a generic results list.

No. Litmas AI has no annual contracts and no firm-wide enrollment requirements. We earn your business month after month. That is not a marketing line. It is how we approach every customer.
