CaseCheck

Overview

CaseCheck is a legal intelligence platform for teams assessing litigation across courts and arbitration. It is best suited to organizations that can make use of extensive case, judge, attorney, venue, and settlement data—and afford an $18,000 annual entry plan. Its breadth is compelling for complex matters, but the price and small seat allowance make it a poor fit for individual researchers or smaller practices.

Key features

Research and prediction

Full-text and semantic search across more than 12 million court documents gives litigation teams a substantial research corpus. Case simulation applies a Bayesian confidence model to probabilistic outcome estimates before motions are filed. That can help teams weigh litigation decisions, but a forecast is an input to judgment, not a substitute for it.

People, venues, and outcomes

Judge Intelligence covers more than 12,400 judges and 3.2 million motions; Arbitration Intelligence covers more than 8,200 arbitrators and 280,000 awards. The Venue Risk Engine scores more than 1,400 venues across 50 states. Opposing Counsel Intelligence profiles 94,000 attorneys across 1.8 million matchup records, while Settlement Intelligence tracks more than $2.4 trillion in dollar outcomes and supplies settlement bands across 16 categories. Together, these tools address questions about decision-makers, opposing counsel, venue, and potential resolution rather than limiting research to case law.

Litigation Cost & Duration Forecast draws on 4.1 million duration data points and reports forecast accuracy of ±12%. That can support planning and funding decisions, though the stated accuracy does not guarantee a result for any particular matter.

API and specialist offerings

The REST API includes case search, judge, attorney and prosecutor analytics, outcome prediction, webhooks, and bulk export endpoints. Enterprise adds high-volume API access, custom integrations and webhooks, white-label reporting, and data licensing. CaseCheck also has offerings for journalism, with controlled shared investigation folders and audit trails, and for academic institutions, with case databases, judicial analytics, dataset exports, comparative analysis, citation methodology, and role-based access. Those specialist functions may matter to those audiences, but the listed commercial plans do not describe their terms.

Pricing

CaseCheck has no free plan. Its paid annual plans target organizations rather than casual or individual research use.

• Team — 18000.00 USD per year (billed $18,000/year): up to 3 seats, judge analytics, attorney performance, venue analysis, case simulation, a settlement estimator, and access to 12M+ court documents. This is the entry point for a small litigation team, but three seats limit wider firm adoption.
• Practice Intelligence (Add-On) — 25000.00 USD per year (billed $25,000/year per practice area): advanced practice-specific litigation analytics. It is an add-on, not a substitute for a base plan, so teams should account for the additional annual cost per area.
• Firm — 49000.00 USD per year (billed $49,000/year): up to 10 seats, advanced case simulation, CaseCompare, opposing counsel dossiers, expert witness intelligence, CSV exports, custom alerts, priority support, and limited API integration. It suits larger teams needing broader analysis and exports, but the API integration remains limited.
• Enterprise — custom pricing: enterprise risk and simulation analytics, high-volume API, white-label reporting, data licensing, custom integrations and webhooks, dedicated onboarding, and a 99.9% uptime SLA. This is the fit for organizations with substantial integration or service requirements; it does not have a fixed published price.

Platforms

CaseCheck is offered on web and through an API. The API makes it more suitable than a web-only research product for organizations integrating legal intelligence into their own systems, although the Firm plan's integration is limited and high-volume API access is an Enterprise feature.

Who it's for

CaseCheck is aimed at litigation finance funds, AmLaw 200 firms, insurance carriers, in-house legal teams, and private-equity firms. Its multi-jurisdiction scope and outcome, attorney, party, and trend analytics make the strongest case for teams evaluating complex exposure across matters. Solo practitioners and budget-conscious researchers are less likely to justify its annual entry price and seat limits.

Pros and cons

• Pro: A broad litigation intelligence set spans court search, judge and arbitrator profiles, venue scores, attorney matchups, settlements, and cost and duration forecasts, supporting several stages of case assessment.
• Pro: Web access plus a REST API provides a route for both direct research and software integration, with more extensive API capabilities at Enterprise.
• Con: The $18,000/year Team plan has no free counterpart and supports only up to 3 seats, placing it beyond many individual and small-firm budgets.
• Con: The $25,000/year Practice Intelligence add-on is charged per practice area, while the $49,000/year Firm plan still offers only limited API integration.

Alternatives

Compare legal case analytics software if you want to assess CaseCheck alongside category options. Choose UpLaw for web research with a free plan and public legal corpus access. Consider Premonition as another paid option with web and API platforms. Valar is worth considering for a single-matter approach, with a $5K-per-matter plan. Docket Navigator offers a free trial and web and API access. LegalLink is a web-based freemium alternative with an annual Standard plan and Australian case access. Solomonic offers paid web access, with subscriptions depending on selected datasets and a free trial. CaseRadar is another paid alternative. Pre/Dicta is a paid web-based alternative.

Verdict

CaseCheck is a strong fit for well-funded litigation teams that need broad, multi-jurisdiction intelligence and can turn its analytics into practical decisions. Its combination of predictive simulation, deep case search, and people and venue data is the main reason to choose it. Look elsewhere if you need a free or low-cost research tool, more seats at the entry tier, or substantial API access without Enterprise pricing.
