## What to compare before choosing a platform

### Workflow fit

Start with the work your team needs to complete: litigation, prosecution, search, portfolio analysis, or invention capture.

### Work-product depth

Look beyond feature lists to the quality, auditability, and reviewability of the analysis and documents the platform produces.

### Operational fit

Evaluate security, implementation support, pricing, and how the product fits the tools and review process your team already uses.
