The short answer: Harvey AI reportedly costs around $1,200 per user per month, sold only by annual enterprise contract with 25–50 seat minimums — an effective floor in the low six figures. There’s no self-serve signup and no free trial, which is why solo and small firms look to alternatives.

Why small firms can’t buy Harvey
The seat minimum is the wall. Even at a per-seat rate a small firm could stomach, being required to buy 25–50 seats on an annual contract turns it into a six-figure commitment — before anyone logs in. Add enterprise-only sales and no free trial, and a solo or five-person firm simply isn’t the customer Harvey is built to serve. That’s not a flaw in Harvey; it’s a different market.
BeforeNine runs your practice — inbox, deadlines, client replies, matter prep — for $99/mo, self-serve, with a free trial and no contract. It’s not a research engine; it’s the back office Harvey won’t sell to a small firm. See the full list of Harvey AI alternatives.
