Based on research conducted in August 2026 from each company's own materials and named press sources; details may have changed since.
1. What Harvey actually publishes about pricing
Harvey's official website carries no pricing page and no self-serve checkout: its calls to action are to request a demo or contact the company, not to sign up or see a price list. That sales-led, demo-gated structure is how Harvey sells, a consultative enterprise process, not a published rate card.
Harvey's help center describes what you get: Assistant for chat-based research and drafting, Vault for bulk document review, Knowledge for citation-backed research, and Workflow Agents for automated multi-step processes, connected to Word, Outlook, SharePoint, Box, and mobile through its Ecosystem layer. None of it states cost; a number comes only from Harvey's team, reflecting firm size, seat count, and selected modules.
2. What Harvey's own executives have said about cost
There is one on-the-record cost statement, narrower and older than most assume. In a May 2024 LawNext article, CEO Winston Weinberg discussed building specialized, custom foundation models for large firm clients and said the development cost “could exceed $5 million,” while noting Harvey was working toward more affordable customization as it scaled. That figure is two years old and describes bespoke custom model development for one client project, not Harvey's standard seat price or a typical deployment contract; this guide does not use it that way.
3. What third parties report, and why to weigh it carefully
Search “Harvey AI pricing” and dozens of articles cite specific numbers: per-seat monthly rates, annual contract ranges, and seat minimums, varying widely by source. None are confirmed by Harvey. Many cluster around similar ranges, which can feel corroborated, but most trace back not to Harvey's own disclosures or a single named, on-the-record legal-tech report, but to comparison and marketing sites, several selling competing products, restating the same unattributed range without a disclosed methodology.
Its materials describe an enterprise sales process, large document repositories, shared workspaces, and firm-wide governance, signals consistent with enterprise-grade pricing but not with “confirmed at $X per seat.” A number without a named, dated source is someone's estimate, not Harvey's price. For the market argument behind Harvey's enterprise positioning, see our market analysis of Harvey's pricing model.
4. What is confirmed about Harvey's business and product
Funding and scale.Harvey raised $200 million in March 2026 co-led by Sequoia and GIC, reaching an $11 billion valuation, per TechCrunch and Harvey’s own announcement. Harvey’s own materials put usage at more than 100,000 lawyers across 1,300 organizations.
Security and compliance.Harvey's trust center lists SOC 2 Type II attestation, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 42001 certification, plus AIUC-1 audited by Schellman.
Named customers.A&O Shearman became Harvey's first enterprise law firm partner in December 2022 and, per Harvey's customer materials, now has the platform available to roughly 4,000 staff across 43 jurisdictions. In July 2026, Microsoft's Corporate, External, and Legal Affairs organization announced it would adopt Harvey, per LawSites.
Product structure. Four core products (Assistant, Vault, Knowledge, Workflow Agents) connected through an Ecosystem layer to Word, Outlook, SharePoint, Box, and mobile. For how Harvey stacks up against its closest enterprise rival, see Harvey vs Legora.
5. How to get a real number for your firm
Structure the sales conversation for comparable, complete information. Questions worth asking Harvey's team directly, in writing:
- What is included in the quoted price, and what counts as a "seat"? Do read-only or admin users count?
- Is there a seat minimum, and does it apply per matter, per practice group, or firm-wide?
- What is the contract length, and what is the renewal process and any renewal increase?
- Are Vault, Workflow Agents, and Knowledge included in the base quote, or priced as add-ons?
- Is there a usage limit or fair-use policy, and what happens if the firm exceeds it?
- What does onboarding and implementation cost, and is it a one-time or recurring fee?
- Can the firm run a real matter through the product before signing a multi-year agreement?
Ask the same questions of any other platform, so answers are comparable across vendors. Our guide to evaluating legal AI has the full checklist, and the legal AI pricing guide covers pricing models across the market.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Harvey AI cost per month?
Harvey does not publish a monthly price. You get a number only after a sales conversation, and it depends on your firm's size, seat count, and which products (Assistant, Vault, Knowledge, Workflow Agents) you include.
Does Harvey have a free trial?
No self-serve free trial is published on Harvey's official site as of this review. Access starts with a requested demo.
Is there a seat minimum for Harvey?
Harvey has not published a seat minimum. Various third-party sites report specific minimums, but none are confirmed by Harvey, so treat any specific number you see as unverified until Harvey's sales team confirms it in writing for your firm.
How do I get Harvey pricing?
Request a demo through Harvey's website. Come prepared with your seat count, the products you want, and the questions in the checklist above, so the quote you receive is complete and comparable to other vendors.
Why doesn't Harvey publish its price?
Harvey has not stated a reason publicly. Enterprise software sold through a sales-led process commonly withholds standard pricing so each deal can be scoped to the buyer's size and negotiating position; that is a common industry pattern, not something specific to Harvey's stated intent.
Is Harvey more expensive than other legal AI platforms?
There is no reliable public basis to answer that with a number, since Harvey does not publish pricing and the platforms most often compared to it, including Legora and CoCounsel, also do not publish standard prices. The only way to compare real cost is to request quotes from each vendor for your specific firm size and use case.
Who publishes this guide?
Irys (formerly Iqidis), a legal AI platform with published pricing: $299 per month for Irys One and $329 per seat per month for Irys Teams, with a 7-day free trial. Irys competes with Harvey at the smaller-firm end of the market; this guide keeps its claims to what Harvey's own materials and named press sources support.
Transparency contrast
Irys takes the opposite approach: pricing is published on the Irys pricing page rather than disclosed only after a sales call. Irys One is $299 per month for one attorney, and Irys Teams is $329 per seat per month for teams of two to twenty-five, with no per-token or per-query overage on the advertised Irys One plan. A seven-day trial requires no credit card, so you can test the platform on a real matter before any sales conversation. Published pricing is not always better, a custom enterprise deployment may need a scoped quote, but friction spent learning cost before you can test a product is worth weighing against what it actually does for your matters.
This guide is based on publicly available information reviewed on August 8, 2026. “Not published” means no standard public price or term was found on the vendor's official materials as of that date; actual pricing, features, and contract terms may vary. Product capabilities and commercial terms change frequently; confirm current details with the vendor before making a purchasing decision. Irys (formerly Iqidis) publishes this guide and competes with Harvey.
