The tools of a big firm. Built for the lawyer who works alone.
Legal research, judge analytics, and document tools priced for the 400,000+ US solo and small-firm attorneys the incumbents forgot. Enterprise-grade research at $39 a month, not $300.
Our Story
LexOrbit didn't start as a startup idea. It started as a price tag.
Legal research has always been built for big firms. Westlaw runs about $300 a month. LexisNexis plans run $114 to $300. For the solo practitioner and the four-person firm, which together make up the largest part of the US legal profession, that math simply doesn't work. So they fall back on free Google searches, patchwork tools, or they skip research they know they should be doing.
We thought that was backwards. The lawyer serving a single client in a small town needs good law just as much as the firm with a research budget. The only thing standing between them and it was price.
So we built the platform we wished existed for them. AI legal research with verified citations, judge analytics, predictive outcomes, document automation, and a full PDF suite, all in one place, at a price a solo lawyer can actually pay. Powered by open legal data, which is the thing that finally makes that price possible.

Our Journey
Research and Problem Validation
We went deep on how solo and small-firm attorneys actually research: the workflows, the document types, and where they lose hours to manual searching and cross-referencing. We validated the gap against real practitioners priced out of the incumbent tools.
Architecture and Implementation
We began active development. We designed the system architecture, the document parsing pipeline, judge-matching algorithms, and AI-assisted analysis, and tested early prototypes against real legal datasets from CourtListener.
Beta Launch and Growth
We're opening private beta ahead of public launch on September 15, 2026. We're refining performance and accuracy with our first attorneys, and actively seeking early adopters, advisors, and investors to scale LexOrbit into a full legal intelligence platform for the solo and small-firm market.
What We Stand For
Guiding principles that define our technology and our culture.
Access Over Exclusivity
Good law shouldn't be a luxury item. We price so the lawyer working alone has the same firepower as the firm down the street.
Verified, Not Guessed
Legal AI is only useful if the citations hold up. We ground every answer in verified case data, not a language model's best guess.
The Whole Job, One Place
Research, analytics, drafting, and the actual PDF work. We keep the entire workflow in one platform so solos aren't stitching five tools together.
Built With Lawyers
We build alongside practicing attorneys and refine on real matters, so the product fits how solo and small-firm lawyers actually work.

Why LexOrbit?
We didn't build LexOrbit to compete with the big legal databases on their terms.
We built it because none of them solved the real problem: the lawyer who needs good law but can't justify $300 a month for it.
Solo and small-firm attorneys don't need more documents. They need faster answers, trusted citations, and intelligent insight, at a price built for how they actually practice. LexOrbit is designed to be a thinking partner, not just a search box, for the 97% of the profession the incumbents price out.
