Clasp vs. Filevine

Clasp vs. Filevine

Clasp vs. Filevine

Choosing a practice management system is a big switch, and you should pick the one that fits your firm. Here’s an honest, side-by-side look at Clasp and Filevine — what’s included, what it really costs, and which firm each one is built for.

A price you can actually see.

Clasp is $84/user/mo, published, with everything included. Filevine’s pricing is a custom quote behind a sales call — usually on an annual contract, with add-ons and implementation on top.

Up and running in days, not a rollout project.

Clasp works out of the box with guided onboarding. Filevine is powerful but heavily customized, which typically means implementation partners, configuration, and ongoing admin.

Everything in one plan, AI included.

Intake, documents, e-sign, payments, and AI are built into Clasp. With Filevine, intake (Lead Docket), e-sign (Vinesign), and broader AI are separate products that add up.

Clasp vs. Filevine: capability comparison

Clasp vs. Filevine: capability comparison

If you’re weighing Filevine, start here. Filevine is a powerful, highly customizable platform, and for large personal-injury and litigation firms with the team to configure and maintain it, it can be a strong fit. But that power comes with real trade-offs: pricing you can’t see without a sales call, an implementation project to get running, and a suite of separate products for intake, e-sign, and AI that stack on top. Clasp takes the opposite approach — one transparent price, fast setup, and intake, documents, payments, e-sign, and AI included from day one. If you want power without the enterprise overhead, that’s the firm Clasp is built for.

Pricing transparency

Published and simple.

$84/user/mo, listed right on the site, with everything included. No sales call required to see a number.

Custom quote only.

Filevine doesn’t publish pricing — every quote is bespoke, typically on an annual contract, and total cost climbs with add-ons and implementation.

Setup & onboarding

Fast and guided.

Works out of the box with sensible defaults; most firms are running quickly with guided migration.

An implementation project.

Powerful because it’s heavily customizable — which usually means implementation partners, configuration time, and setup cost before you’re live.

One system vs. a suite

All in one plan.

Intake, documents, e-sign, payments, messaging, and AI are built in and included.

Separate products.

Intake (Lead Docket), e-signature (Vinesign), and contracts (Outlaw) are distinct add-on products that are billed and managed separately.

AI in your workflow

Included and case-grounded.

Clasp AI is built into the plan and works from your real matter context.

Metered and modular.

Base plans include some metered AI, but broader and specialized AI (e.g., LeadsAI) are paid add-ons with usage commitments and overage fees.

Look and feel

Modern and fast.

Linear-quality design — command search, keyboard-first shortcuts, low clutter, quick for staff to adopt.

Powerful but dense.

Built for complex, high-volume litigation workflows; capable, but heavier and more configuration-driven day to day.

Right-sized for your firm

Built for solo, small & mid-sized firms.

Especially family and immigration — enough power to run the whole practice without enterprise overhead.

Built for enterprise litigation.

A strong fit for large PI and mass-tort ops teams; often more than smaller firms need to configure and maintain.

Microsoft 365

Company & support

Enterprise vendor.

Clasp is the only legal software with Microsoft inside it. Launch Word, Excel, or PowerPoint right inside the case.

One system, not a stack of add-ons.

Clasp unifies intake, cases, documents, email, billing, payments, e-sign, and AI out of the box. Clio splits the same workflow across Clio Manage, Clio Grow, and third-party integrations.

The case is the center of everything.

Every document, message, deadline, and dollar lives on the matter — so context never gets lost between tools. Clasp is built AI-native around that context from day one.

Modern software your team will actually use.

Clasp is fast, keyboard-first, and clean — built this decade, for the way firms work now. Less setup, less training, faster adoption.

Here’s what changes when your whole firm runs in one place instead of a stack of connected tools.

Everything on the case, from intake to payment

AI that’s grounded in your firm’s context

Most legal AI is either enterprise-priced (Harvey, Legora) or generic (ChatGPT). Clasp sits in the middle: AI built into the workflow and grounded in your own matter data, so it actually removes work instead of just talking about it.

Financial control without the admin drag

Built-in billing, native payments tied to each matter, passive time capture, and compliant trust accounting with auto-replenishment. Get paid accurately with far less reconciliation work.
