Paxton
Published-price legal AI assistant for research, drafting, and medical-record summaries.
Palo Alto, California · Paxton AI, Inc.
- What it does
- Paxton AI, Inc. is a self-serve legal assistant: upload files or type a prompt and it returns drafts, document summaries with source highlighting, and cited research against a vendor knowledge base of US federal and 50-state law plus appellate case law — not Westlaw or Lexis. Named workflows include Quick-Start Drafting (motions, contracts, client letters), Comprehensive Document Analysis, Contextual Research, medical chronologies, and medical billing summaries. Individual pricing is published at $499 per user per month or $2,999 per user per year, with a 7-day trial; enterprise is volume quote (confirm on paxton.ai/pricing). The vendor states a closed model, no training on customer data, and SOC 2 / ISO / HIPAA marketing claims. It is not a law firm, not a CMS, and chats are not attorney-client privilege. Cited output still needs a lawyer.
- Fit
- Solo and small firms that want one drafting-plus-research tab with a published seat price instead of Harvey-class procurement, especially PI shops that will use the chronology and billing-summary workflows on uploaded records. Also in-house counsel who will upload their own files.
- Not a fit
- Firms that need Westlaw or Lexis as the research corpus, write-back into Clio or Filevine, e-discovery, or a contract repository. Not a system of record. At $499 per user per month it is a real line item; teams that will not review AI cites before filing should skip it.
- Audience / pricing
- Solo and small firms, plus in-house counsel, shopping one assistant with a published seat price. $499/user/month or $2,999/user/year; 7-day trial; Enterprise volume quote (confirm on paxton.ai/pricing).
