What aiR actually is
Relativity has rebranded its platform: its site now presents Relativity aiR as the AI platform for legal data, with the e-discovery lifecycle underneath. The pricing page lists what comes in every plan: processing, analytics, review center, redaction, automated workflows, a native viewer, audio and video transcription, email thread visualization and near-duplicate detection.
The AI pieces it names are aiR Review (AI-assisted document review), Privilege (finding and logging privileged documents), Case Strategy, Assist (conversational Q&A over your data with cited answers) and claiR (the newer conversational layer). It also describes a Model Context Protocol connection that links assistants such as Claude, Gemini, Copilot and GPT Enterprise to the platform.
The vendor's central argument is that AI should come to your data rather than your data going to an AI tool. That is a positioning claim about architecture. We did not test it, and the pages we read do not describe data retention or training terms in detail.
Pricing: what is and isn't published
Relativity publishes the shape of its pricing, not the price. You commit to a data volume, pay as you go or for one or three years, and the AI capabilities named above come with it. The pricing page says add-ons such as Data Breach Response, Translate and FOIA are licensed separately.
Not published: the rate per GB or per month, minimum commitments, what a committed volume covers when you exceed it, hosting and processing charges, and how much the three-year discount is worth. Our Relativity pricing page tracks the public signals, and the Everlaw pricing page shows how a competitor describes its own.
Who it fits
Large firms and corporate legal departments with high-volume matters. Relativity says it is used by 193 of the Am Law 200 and that it scales "from a focused review to hundreds of millions of documents." That is a vendor claim we did not verify.
Teams with a litigation support group. A platform this broad usually needs administrators. We haven't verified how much administration the platform needs; ask for the admin staffing a comparable customer runs.
Not an obvious fit for: a solo or small firm with an occasional matter, where per-GB commitments and platform breadth may be more than the work needs. See our Relativity alternatives for lighter options.
How it compares
- Everlaw: Everlaw's pricing page lists unlimited user licenses and meters some AI features with credits, while Relativity says AI comes with data volume and has no per-user fees. Both publish no amounts. See Relativity vs Everlaw.
- DISCO: see DISCO vs Relativity and the three-way comparison.
- Luminance: a different job, contract review; see Relativity aiR vs Luminance.
- Harvey and CoCounsel: general legal AI assistants rather than e-discovery platforms; see Harvey vs Relativity and Relativity vs CoCounsel.
The vendor's own profile on this site is Relativity aiR.
What we couldn't verify
- Any price, rate or minimum commitment.
- aiR Review accuracy, recall or precision on a real matter. The vendor pages we read give none.
- Whether claiR is generally available (the pages say "Coming Soon" and "Advanced Access").
- The Am Law 200 figure, user counts and country count.
- Data retention, model training and security terms. Request them in writing.
How to test it in a week
- Ask for a written quote on your data volume for one year and for three, with processing and hosting itemized.
- Run a pilot on a closed matter where you already know the answer.
- Measure aiR Review's calls against your own human-reviewed set and record recall and precision yourself.
- Ask for the data terms: retention, model training, subprocessors.
- Compare the quote and the pilot with one other platform on the same data.

Questions and answers
What is Relativity aiR?
It is Relativity's AI platform for legal data intelligence, covering the e-discovery lifecycle from collection and processing to review and production. Its AI features include aiR Review, Privilege, Case Strategy and Assist, per Relativity's own pages.
How much does Relativity aiR cost?
Relativity doesn't publish prices. Its pricing page says you pay as you go or commit for one or three years, and AI features are included with your committed data volume. The page shows no dollar amounts.
What are the differences between Everlaw and Relativity?
On pricing, Everlaw lists unlimited user licenses and credits for some AI features, and Relativity says AI comes with data volume and no per-user fees. Neither publishes a price. Everlaw advertises SOC 2 Type 2 and FedRAMP; Relativity advertises use by 193 of the Am Law 200. We have not tested either.
Is Relativity suitable for Am Law 100 firms and large corporate legal departments?
Relativity says 193 of the Am Law 200 rely on it and that it handles reviews up to hundreds of millions of documents. That is a vendor claim we could not verify, but it indicates the platform is aimed at that segment. Test it on your own matter before you commit.
Does Relativity aiR have a free trial?
We found no free trial on the pricing or AI pages. They route to "Get a Demo", "Talk to Sales" and "Request Pricing".
