How to choose

  • • If you need a free tier to start, look for the free-tier badge — it means you can test the workflow before paying.
  • • If you need to embed it in your own product, check the API availability row.
  • • If data residency matters, check whether the tool is open source or self-hostable.
  • • If you are switching from Clio, the pricing note shows whether the entry plan is comparable.
