Filevine vs EvenUp (2026): case management with AI, versus demand AI with a platform

They are often shortlisted together, but they started from opposite ends: Filevine from matter management, EvenUp from AI-drafted demands. Here is where they now overlap, where they do not, and what each charges.

TL;DR

What each company actually sells

Filevine

Filevine's platform is organized into Matters, Intake, Depositions, and Signatures, with LOIS ("Legal Operating Intelligence System") layered across it. Its pricing page names LOIS for Word, Ask LOIS, AI Drafting, Depo Copilot ("real-time intelligence," "live transcription"), Depo Summaries, Leads AI, and MedChron, and offers LOIS Explore "at no cost" with "no credit card required" (filevine.com/pricing). The June 2025 MedChron release says the tool addresses work that "has traditionally required 15 to 20 hours of manual effort for each complex case," is free to existing Filevine AI users, and offers non-customers a trial of "1,000 pages of medical records at no cost" (Filevine, June 11, 2025). Filevine serves firms from solo to big law across PI, mass torts, immigration, insurance defense, and more (filevine.com).

EvenUp

EvenUp's site describes a Claims Intelligence Platform on its Piai model, with PLAAS (Pre-Litigation as a Service), Communication Agents, Medical Management, AI Drafts, Express and Expert Demands, MedChrons, Companion (Lexis+ / Protégé integration), Case & Negotiation Prep, Settlement Repository, and Executive Analytics. Firms "choose instant AI demands or legal-reviewed demands based on case type." It is "SOC2-audited and HIPAA-attested" (evenuplaw.com).

Pricing: what is public, what is not

Filevine says "all packages are custom built for your team's needs" and asks buyers to contact sales (filevine.com/pricing). Third-party estimates for full implementations vary widely by source, from roughly $87 per user per month (a "$1,044+ per user per year" figure) to $125–$250 per user per month for full implementations, before implementation fees (CounselStack; PricingNow); an August 2026 review flags a likely minimum seat count as the main hidden cost and confirms a free trial but no permanent free plan (ToolRadar). None of these are Filevine-confirmed.

EvenUp publishes nothing. Third-party estimates range from $500–$2,000 per month per firm (AI Vortex) to $200–$500+ per user per month (ProPlaintiff); both say EvenUp has not confirmed them. Full breakdown: What EvenUp actually costs in 2026.

Where each one is the stronger pick

Pick Filevine when

Pick EvenUp when

Both? Because the overlap is narrow (chronologies and demand drafts), some firms keep Filevine as the system of record and use EvenUp for demands. Ask both vendors what integration exists between them before assuming data flows automatically; we could not verify one from public materials.

For medical malpractice specifically

Both products generate medical chronologies. Neither publishes a medical-malpractice product line, physician review of medical output, or a per-case price. Chronology is the beginning of a med-mal workup, not the end: the case still turns on standard of care, causation, and the page that proves each.

MedLegal AI is our product, so weigh this accordingly. It serves plaintiff and defense, cites every finding to the record page, is reviewed by a practicing physician, and publishes pricing: free account with 3 case analyses (no card), $19 per case, Pro $49/month, Professional $249/month (5 seats), Firm $499/month (20 seats) (pricing). It is not a case-management system and pairs with Filevine rather than replacing it; see MedLegal AI vs Filevine and MedLegal AI vs EvenUp. Try the cite demo first.

FAQ

Is Filevine a competitor to EvenUp?

Partly. They overlap on chronologies and demand drafting, not on matter management, e-signature, or deposition transcription. Many firms run both.

Does Filevine publish pricing?

No; packages are custom. LOIS Explore is free with no credit card. Third-party per-user estimates vary widely and are not Filevine-confirmed.

Is MedChron free?

Free to existing Filevine AI users and included with new Filevine AI purchases by existing customers, per Filevine's June 2025 announcement; non-customers get a 1,000-page trial. Filevine AI itself is paid, with unpublished pricing.

Which is better for medical malpractice?

Neither publishes a med-mal product line or physician review. A page-cited specialist tool with published pricing is a common complement to either. Demo on your own records.
