Harvey AI
Harvey launched in 2022 with a GPT-4-based product for case research, drafting, and document review tailored to elite law firms. Allen & Overy and PwC became flagship customers. By mid-2025 Harvey had raised over $500M across Sequoia, Kleiner, GV, and OpenAI's Startup Fund at a $5B+ valuation and counted most of the AmLaw 100 as customers. The product, team, and roadmap continue to grow.
Why Abandoned
Active customer base across AmLaw 100, $5B+ valuation funding in 2025, weekly product updates, growing team. No degradation signals.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Who uses Harvey?
Most of the AmLaw 100, plus the Big Four. Harvey is built for large firms; pricing and onboarding are not aimed at solos.
Is Harvey just GPT-4 in a wrapper?
It started as GPT-4 plus legal workflows. Harvey now uses a multi-model stack including custom fine-tunes and retrieval over firm-specific data.
How is Harvey different from Thomson Reuters CoCounsel?
Both target large law firms. Harvey ships faster and is more startup-y; CoCounsel sits inside the Thomson Reuters/Westlaw distribution.
Can I get a personal Harvey account?
No. Harvey sells only into firms with seat-based enterprise contracts. Individual lawyers should use ChatGPT or Claude.
