Harvey alternative for due diligence

Harvey describes itself as the “operating system for legal and professional services,” an AI platform whose products streamline workflows in areas such as contract analysis, due diligence, compliance and litigation. majiq is an AI due diligence platform from Switzerland that reads every document in the data room, checks it in context and writes the due diligence report. The main difference is scope: by its own description, Harvey covers many kinds of legal work and is aimed at law firms and legal departments, while majiq focuses on M&A due diligence, with a data room for everyone involved and a report in which every finding is backed by evidence from your documents.

What is Harvey?

On its company page, Harvey describes itself as the “operating system for legal and professional services”; according to Harvey, its products streamline workflows in areas such as contract analysis, due diligence, compliance and litigation. The home page names, among other things, AI agents for legal work, the document storage and analysis tool “Vault,” research in law, regulation and tax, and “AI contract review and negotiation.”

According to its privacy policy, Harvey is headquartered in the United States, with Harvey AI Corporation in San Francisco; for the EU, the policy names Harvey AI Ireland Limited in Dublin. According to its company page, Harvey is backed by investors including Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, a16z, Coatue, EQT, GIC, GV and Goldman Sachs Alternatives.

For working with large numbers of documents, there is Vault: up to 100,000 documents per vault, including emails. According to the same page, “Review tables” compare key data points from thousands of documents at once in a structured, tabular format, and you can ask questions over any review table to summarize, compare or isolate key insights. Colleagues and external partners work together in vaults and review tables, with permissions for access, viewing and editing.

According to its security page, Harvey hosts its cloud environment in Microsoft Azure. For customers with requirements or preferences for data localization, Harvey offers processing in the EU and Switzerland or in Australia, and according to the same page, this also applies to its subprocessors. A blog post from June 18, 2026 describes three regions: the “Standard Region” with processing in the US, the EU and Switzerland, the “EU Region” with processing in the EU and Switzerland, and the “Australian Region” with processing in Australia. A region with Switzerland alone is not stated publicly; the sources always name Switzerland together with the EU.

The home page is aimed at law firms, mid-size firms and corporate legal departments (“For Law Firms,” “For Mid-Size Firms,” “For In-House Teams”). The company page says “Law firms and legal teams around the world use Harvey …” and also mentions “professional service networks.” Pricing is not stated publicly; the home page leads to “Request a Demo.” Since a product update in August 2026, the interface also supports Spanish (Spain and Mexico).

What is majiq?

majiq is an AI due diligence platform from Switzerland, for sellers, buyers, investors and advisors who sell, buy or review a company. majiq reads every document in the data room, checks it in context and writes the due diligence report. You upload the documents as they are, including whole folders or ZIP files. majiq covers legal, tax and financial due diligence: every document goes into its area, and the areas are cross-checked, contracts against financial statements and financial statements against the plan. majiq reads revenue, EBITDA and net debt per company directly from the financial statements and recalculates them.

Every finding is backed by evidence from your documents and cross-checked by two AI reviewers, and in the online report, every statement leads to its source. The judgment stays with you: you review the report, approve it and share it as a link or PDF. Sellers, bidders and specialists work in the same data room. Each role only sees the documents you release, and every view and every download is logged.

The database and files are stored in Switzerland, with hosting in Zürich. Text recognition and AI analysis run in the EU, and your documents don’t train any AI models, as set out in the contract. All features are listed under Features. The sample report shows what a report looks like.
