Why Law Firms Switch from MyCase to PrimaCoda

MyCase ($39-$69/user/mo) is solid for client communication, intake forms, and basic case management. But it has zero AI features. No document extraction, no motion drafting, no automated deadlines from uploaded files. Every case still requires manual data entry, and every motion still starts from a blank page.

PrimaCoda was built for a different problem: using AI to do the substantive legal work that eats your billable hours. Upload a complaint and get parties, courts, dates, claims, and defenses extracted in roughly a minute. Ask the AI to draft a Motion to Dismiss using facts from the case file. Get statute of limitations tracked automatically from day one.

The Core Difference

MyCase is a practice management tool — it organizes your work. PrimaCoda is a legal automation tool — it does your work. If you need built-in billing and text messaging, MyCase is strong. If you need AI that reads case files and drafts motions, PrimaCoda is the only option.
