CoCounsel is a legal research and drafting assistant now owned by Thomson Reuters after acquiring Casetext in 2023 for $650 million. It runs case law research, document review, contract analysis, and guided drafting grounded in Westlaw and Practical Law rather than the open web.

Standalone legal chatbots pull from generic training data. CoCounsel ties every answer to Thomson Reuters authority, which means citations trace back to Westlaw primary law and Practical Law guidance. The 2026 next-generation release adds Workspaces for matter-specific context, Brief Builder for agentic motion drafting, and a firm-intelligence layer for encoding internal expertise.

Litigation teams, transactional lawyers, and in-house counsel at firms already paying for Westlaw use it to cut research time and review contracts at scale. Pricing is sales-led with no public rate card, and the tool delivers the most value when bundled with an existing Westlaw subscription.
