Where OurFirm.ai wins
What you get that Harvey doesn't.
Proprietary judicial dataset
OurFirm.ai's Judge AI is built on federal opinions, transcripts, and docket entries. Harvey publishes no equivalent judicial behavioral dataset.
Citation verification before filing
Check My Cites verifies every citation, quote, and pin cite before you file. Harvey does not publish a comparable citation-verification pipeline.
Judge-tailored drafting
OurFirm.ai drafts incorporate a specific judge's documented preferences and tendencies, rather than producing general-purpose output.
Built by a practicing trial attorney
OurFirm.ai was designed by founder Andrew Mancilla from 15 years of litigation practice, around real courtroom workflows and deadlines.
Our own data and search, not a rented database
OurFirm.ai runs on its own nationwide caselaw database, docket data, trial transcripts, and thousands of document templates, searched with retrieval we built for law. Nothing to connect or activate — unlike tools that bolt a general AI onto a third-party database like Lexis or Westlaw — and owning both the data and the search means more accurate, court-ready results. That owned dataset is our moat.
Built by a litigator
Why litigators need their own AI
If you are weighing OurFirm.ai against Harvey, the difference that matters most is who it was built for. OurFirm.ai produces work product ready for a judge and a filing deadline, not general legal text you have to reshape for the courtroom.
General legal AI platforms and general-purpose models are built for breadth: many practice areas, many use cases, one tool for everyone. Litigation is different. It runs on the record, the docket, the rules of a specific court, and the tendencies of a specific judge.
OurFirm.ai was built by a trial attorney to work the way litigators actually work. That experience is embedded directly into how the platform drafts, researches, and verifies, so the output reflects courtroom reality rather than generic legal text.

Founder & CEO
OurFirm.ai's founder and CEO, Andrew Mancilla, is a trial attorney with 15 years of experience across criminal, civil, and appellate litigation, admitted in New York, New Jersey, California, and federal courts.

Where Harvey may fit better
We're not for every practice.
- Transactional, corporate, and contract-review teams whose core work is producing documents like contracts, terms of service, and corporate-governance materials.
- Large firms standardizing on one general-purpose assistant for research and drafting across departments that rarely litigate.

FAQ
Common questions.
How does OurFirm.ai compare to Harvey?
OurFirm.ai is purpose-built for litigation, with judge behavioral profiles, citation verification, and judge-tailored drafting. Harvey is a broad general legal AI platform serving many practice areas. For trial teams, OurFirm.ai offers more litigation depth; for general or transactional work, Harvey offers more breadth.
Does Harvey have judge intelligence or citation verification?
Based on Harvey's public materials, it does not publish a proprietary judicial behavioral dataset or a dedicated citation-verification pipeline. OurFirm.ai provides both: federal judge profiles and Check My Cites, which verifies every citation before filing.
Can I run OurFirm.ai alongside Harvey?
Yes. OurFirm.ai starts month-to-month with no annual commitment, so you can run it in parallel with Harvey and compare output quality, citation accuracy, and judge-specificity on your own matters.
Security & compliance
Enterprise-grade security, without the enterprise overhead
Being purpose-built for client matters does not mean trading away security. OurFirm.ai runs the same controls the largest firms require, and client documents are never used to train AI models. That is a contractual commitment, not a setting you have to find and switch on.
Visit the Trust Center →No training on client data
Contractual no-training terms with our AI subprocessors. Your matters never enter a training pipeline.
Per-firm and per-matter isolation
Data is isolated by firm, attorney, and conversation, so nothing is co-mingled across clients.
Encrypted in transit and at rest
TLS 1.3 protects data in transit and AES-256 protects it at rest, with no exceptions for AI traffic.
SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR aligned
SOC 2 Type I is complete and Type II is underway. HIPAA-aligned BAA and GDPR/CCPA-aligned DPA available under NDA.
