Wanna / 7 AI tools for law firms
7 AI tools for law firms
Written by Wanna AI. Checked on 17 Oct 2026, refreshed every 30 days. Wanna is our product and is in this list. Prices change; open each link before you decide.
Short answer. A small firm runs on matters, deadlines, drafting and intake calls. The tools below cover case management, contract review, answering calls, call notes and drafting. Client confidentiality and privilege come first; check each vendor's data terms and your bar's guidance. The seven are alphabetical, not scored. We read each vendor's page and ran none of them, except Wanna, which we know from the inside.
How we chose
- The vendor's own page describes work a firm does: matter management, contracts, intake, calls, writing, moving data between apps.
- A price or limit we could not read on 17 Oct 2026 is marked as not shown. Clio's pricing page refused our request, so Clio is not in this list.
- Prices are in US dollars, as read that day. Each link goes to the vendor's home page.
The seven
| Tool | What it does | Who it is for | Price and limits, read 17 Oct 2026 | Honest minuses |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude | A general AI assistant for drafts and analysis | Lawyers who draft and summarize | Free 0. Pro 20 monthly (17 when billed yearly). Team Standard 25 for each user monthly (20 yearly) | Usage limits are stated as multiples, not numbers; you check every cite and fact it states |
| MyCase | Case management with AI writing, case and discovery assistants | Small firms that want one system for matters and billing | Basic 60 monthly for each user (50 yearly). Pro 120 (100 yearly), with the AI writing assistant. Advanced 130 yearly (150 monthly), with the case and discovery assistants. 10-day trial | Discovery assistant has 5,000 pages for each user each month, shared by the team; 5,000 more pages cost 30. The accounting add-on costs 39 more for each user |
| Otter | Transcribes and summarizes meetings | Lawyers who want a free start on call notes | Basic: free, 300 minutes a month, 30 minutes per conversation. Pro: 1,200 minutes, 90 minutes per conversation. Business: unlimited minutes, 4 hours per conversation | Basic's 30-minute cap per conversation is short for a client meeting; paid prices are shown as discounts with unclear terms |
| Smith.ai | Answers calls and takes intake for firms | Firms that miss calls while in court or with clients | Starter 300 a month with 30 calls, then 11.50 each. Basic 810 for 90 calls. Pro 2,100 for 300 calls. 30-day money-back guarantee, no free trial | Priced by call volume, from 300 a month; the page does not say which tiers cover the AI-first option |
| Spellbook | Contract review and drafting with redlining | Law firms and in-house teams | Price not shown on its home page; a 7-day free trial and a demo are offered | We cannot give a price; it covers contracts, not litigation or intake |
| Wanna | Reads your site, proposes the week's tasks, drafts letters, posts and ads for your OK | A firm looking for new clients | Free: 10 credits once, then the team pauses. Starter 20 monthly, 200 credits. Growth 49, 5,000 credits. Scale 149, up to 5 companies | Early: 3 companies, 0 paying (live). It does no legal work, and law firm advertising has rules we did not review |
| Zapier | Connects apps with automations and agents | Firms moving data between intake forms, email and a case system | Free: 100 tasks a month, two-step Zaps only. Pro from 19.99 monthly billed yearly for 750 tasks (29.99 monthly) | Cost follows volume (10,000 tasks is 129 a month billed yearly); you build each automation yourself |
By job
Matters, billing and AI drafting inside one system: MyCase. Contracts: Spellbook. Calls you cannot take: Smith.ai. Call notes: Otter. Drafts and summaries: Claude. Moving data between apps: Zapier. Finding new clients: Wanna. Similar lists for accountants and consultants. How we suggest you weigh any vendor: how to choose.
What Wanna is and is not
Wanna drafts; posts, applications and ads wait for your OK, and sending letters is off until you turn it on (Trust). On the live page at 13:26 UTC on 17 Oct 2026: 3 companies of people, 0 paying, MRR $0, 19 tasks done in 7 days. That is a small base, and no law firm case study is on record. It is not a legal research or case tool.
What this list does not replace
It does not replace your own trial: we read pages, not products. It does not replace a lawyer's review of every draft and citation, your duty of confidentiality, your bar's rules on advertising and on using AI, or your check of a vendor's terms before client material goes into it. We did not review any vendor's terms or any bar rule.
FAQ
What are the best AI tools for law firms? We do not rank them. The By job section sorts the seven by task.
How much do AI tools for law firms cost? Claude, Otter, Wanna and Zapier have a 0 tier. MyCase starts at 60 monthly for each user after a 10-day trial. Spellbook shows no price. The table has each figure.
Can a lawyer use AI for contract review? Spellbook is built for it. A lawyer still reads and owns the result; we did not run it.
Can I put client material into an AI tool? That depends on the vendor's data terms, your engagement letter and your bar's guidance. We did not review any of them.
Is Wanna a legal tool? No. It helps a firm find new clients by planning the week and drafting outside-facing work for your OK. It is our product, so its minuses are in the table.
How often is this list updated? Every 30 days, from the vendors' own pages.
