Casesearch vs vLex, Compared for US Solos and Small Firms

The short answer

Casesearch and vLex both offer AI legal research, but at different scale and price. vLex, with its Vincent AI assistant and the corpus it gained by merging with Fastcase, spans a huge multi-jurisdiction library and is sold through a sales-led quote with no public standalone price. Casesearch is the self-serve, US-focused option for solos and small firms: ask in plain English and get cited precedents with plain-language holdings and a still-good-law signal, at a price you can read on the page from 39 dollars per month.
