Draftiro vs Clio: honest comparison for solo attorneys

When Clio is the right call, when Draftiro is the right call, and how to migrate if you decide to switch.

By The Draftiro team · Product· 8 min read·Published

Clio Manage is the gorilla of legal practice management. We won't pretend otherwise. Clio is the right call for some firms. Draftiro is the right call for others. Here's how to tell which is you.

Pick Clio if…

  • Your bottleneck is billing and trust-accounting, not drafting.
  • You already use 3+ Clio integrations (LawPay, Fastcase, etc.).
  • You have 5+ attorneys with established Clio workflows.

Pick Draftiro if…

  • Your bottleneck is research and drafting.
  • You want an AI-first workflow, not an AI bolt-on.
  • You care about CourtListener-validated citations and a transparent no-train AI pledge.
  • You want to start at $29/mo, not $89/mo.
