Paxton is a self-serve litigation workspace from a team that, according to Paxton, built CoCounsel at Casetext. The Individual plan includes research across 30,000+ legal sources, court-formatted drafting of motions, briefs, discovery responses and deposition outlines, and matter analysis that finds facts, gaps and contradictions across case files, with timelines and evidence summaries. It connects to Box, Dropbox, OneDrive and SharePoint, and Enterprise adds Word and Outlook plugins, iManage and NetDocuments connectors and a Claude MCP integration. Paxton is model agnostic, picking a frontier model per task, and states it is SOC 2, ISO 27001 and HIPAA compliant with no training on customer data. Pricing is clear: $499 per user per month, or $2,999 per user per year, which saves 50 percent. The monthly rate is steep for a solo lawyer, and drafting in Word needs Enterprise, but few research-grade tools let a litigator sign up today with a 7-day trial.
