Codes Health vs LawPro.ai: how they compare in 2026
Codes Health and LawPro.ai work at different steps of the same case. Codes Health gets the medical records. Its team and its AI request them from every provider, chase them by fax and phone, check each file for gaps and deliver chronologies and summaries. LawPro.ai starts once the records are in hand. A firm uploads the file, and LawPro.ai builds the chronology, totals the specials and drafts the demand letter, mediation statements and deposition material. Codes Health serves personal injury, workers' compensation, disability, malpractice and mass tort firms, and names Daly & Black and RF Injury Law as customers. LawPro.ai was cofounded by a practicing injury lawyer, names Zipin, Amster & Greenberg among its users and also sells to healthcare networks. Their data terms differ too. Codes Health says customer data never trains AI models, but its published policies cover only its website. LawPro.ai's privacy policy reaches uploaded case files and limits training to de identified or aggregated data. Firms losing weeks to chasing providers should start with Codes Health. Firms that already hold the records and want demands out faster should start with LawPro.ai.
Which one fits
Choose Codes Health if
- Your case managers lose hours chasing providers, and you want someone else to request, follow up and pay fees until every record arrives. Daly & Black reports no follow up calls from its case managers since moving its requests to Codes Health.
- Your cases span personal injury, workers' compensation, Social Security disability, medical malpractice or mass torts, with providers in many states, police departments or schools to reach.
- Your firm works in Filevine or SmartAdvocate and wants to order records from inside the case file.
- You want people to check each file for completeness and missing treatment before it reaches your team, with each request's stage visible in real time.
- You want a flat fee that already covers follow ups, resent requests and AI chronologies, and you can accept a quote in place of a list price.
Choose LawPro.ai if
- You already hold the records and want the chronology, specials total and draft demand back in minutes. Zipin, Amster & Greenberg reports writing twice as many demands a week.
- Paralegals spend days on demand letters, mediation and arbitration statements and deposition outlines, and you want drafts to edit rather than blank pages.
- Lawyers want to question a file in plain English and click through to the exact page each answer came from.
- Your firm runs SmartAdvocate or another case system and wants new cases and documents to flow in, and outputs to flow back, without IT work or an integration fee.
- You want a written privacy policy that covers uploaded case files, and you can accept that it allows training on de identified data with no customer agreement published.
At a glance
All 15 axes, side by side
The same grid applied to every vendor in the index, graded from public sources. Hover a grade to see what the letter means on that axis.
AI Centrality
How much of the product is actually AI. Whether the machine learning is the mechanism the buyer is paying for or a feature layered onto conventional software, and whether the vendor is specific about which is which.
The models drive the core capabilities and sit on a retrieval service that would still run without them. AI checks each authorization for misspellings, missing dates of service and absent signatures before submission. It reviews returned records for accuracy and completion, flags missing records and new providers, and produces chronologies, summaries and case relevant insights. Underneath sits a managed retrieval operation covering submissions, portals, calls, faxes, fees and follow ups, with a tracker showing each request's stage. Codes Health describes the work as AI with human oversight, and people review every file before delivery. Without the models a firm would still receive a tracked and chased records service.
Remove the models and nothing remains to sell. Every module is inference over an uploaded medical file. TimeLineD builds the chronology, FileLens characterizes each document, Snapshot extracts injuries, treatments, medications and referrals, and SpecialsAI finds and totals medical costs. Case360 assembles the case view, LegalDocs drafts the demand and deposition material, and Case Assistant answers questions from the chronology. The connectors move cases and documents in and send outputs back, so LawPro.ai does not run the firm's matters or hold its practice. The plan's inclusions make the same point. They are onboarding, AI summaries, timelines and billing, an AI chat assistant and a customer success manager.
Citation Accuracy and Hallucination Disclosure
Whether the vendor publishes measured accuracy on citations and assertions, grounds output to primary sources, and says plainly what its system does when it does not know. Legal has a documented public record of fabricated citations reaching filed briefs, so an untested claim of accuracy is not evidence.
Codes Health says its automated review checks records for accuracy and completion, and its FAQ claims complete files every time. Chronologies and summaries are drawn from the client's own retrieved records, so the output has a real source. No retrieval method is described, and no output is shown citing a page a user can open. No accuracy figure, test set or failure mode is published; people and AI verify every file before delivery. The published figures describe speed and capacity rather than accuracy: 2.5 times faster turnaround and 50 percent more capacity for new cases, neither attributed nor dated.
Accuracy is the headline claim, and it is asserted rather than measured. LawPro.ai describes Hallucination Prevention Technology as a patent pending framework that helps ensure outputs are grounded in verified source documents before users see them. Its About page claims 98 percent accuracy with no test set, method or date. Grounding is real in the product. Case Assistant answers from the chronology, and every output links to the original document and page. No retrieval method, evaluation or error rate is described, so the claims cannot be tested. The framework page still carries unedited template text, including placeholder sections about sales pipelines.
Autonomy and Oversight Model
What the system decides on its own, what a lawyer must approve, and whether the vendor documents where the review point sits. A tool that drafts under review and a tool that files without one are different products and different risks.
Review points are published, and the line where the system runs alone is not. People and AI verify every file for completeness before delivery, and insights are reviewed by real people. Missing records are flagged and chased. The firm sees each request move through stages from request sent to records delivered, with an audit trail of actions. The reviewers are Codes Health staff, not the firm's lawyers. Nothing describes what a lawyer should check on receipt or what happens when a chronology or insight is wrong. Nothing says where automated follow up stops and a person steps in. No abstention behavior or confidence signal is described.
A review surface is built into the output, and the threshold is never stated. Every Case Assistant answer links to the source document and page. LawPro.ai says its reports and chronologies are auditable, so attorneys can review, verify and explain every insight to clients. Chats are saved per case. Nothing says which outputs need review before use, what happens when a finding cannot be grounded, or what follows an error. LegalDocs promises documents ready to send in minutes, and the grounding framework is said to work without adding manual review. The point at which a drafted demand could leave the firm unreviewed is not stated.
Operational and Outcome Evidence
Named, dated evidence that the product works in production at real firms or legal departments. Case studies with figures and identified customers count. Unattributed testimonials and launch announcements do not.
Two named firms tell their stories with figures, and neither story is dated or measured. Daly & Black, a litigation firm with more than 20 attorneys, more than 30 case managers and more than 500 active cases, moved every record request to Codes Health. It reports one vendor for every request, all requests tracked in one dashboard and no follow up calls from case managers. Its firm administrator, Karen Satriano, describes the earlier process as disorganized. RF Injury Law, a one attorney personal injury firm with about 150 open cases, redeployed its full time records employee. It no longer spends 5 to 10 hours a week chasing a vendor, and imaging films from two radiology facilities reached its trial expert the next day. Separately, Codes Health claims 2.5 times faster turnaround and 50 percent more case capacity with no named source. Its turnaround figures also disagree. The headline gives a 15 day median, the FAQ gives 12 to 15 days on average, and the state guides give 10 to 12 days.
Named firms appear beside figures, with no dates and no method. Zipin, Amster & Greenberg's logo sits beside twice the demands written per week and medical record processing eight times faster. A second logo, BIPA, sits beside 20 percent more cases processed and a 33 percent increase in case value. Three testimonials name a firm. Michelle S. at Aaron Law Group says demands now go out the same day. Liz G., a paralegal at Patterson Dahlberg Injury Lawyers, no longer scrolls through thousands of pages. Shelby P., a paralegal at Fleschner, Stark, Tanoos & Newlin, reports a full day a week saved for each of three support staff. Other testimonials give only a role and firm size, such as a large firm paralegal saving 10 to 15 hours per case. Larger claims carry no source: 60 percent higher case value, 20 percent more cases with no added staff, $90,000 more revenue per lawyer and 50 hours saved per case. Nothing is dated and no method is given, so what was measured cannot be assessed.
Privilege and Confidentiality Posture
How client confidences are handled: attorney client privilege and work product treatment, segregation of one client matter from another, whether client data trains any model, and what the vendor commits to in writing rather than in marketing.
Specific commitments are published where a buyer can read them before signing, and none sits in a contract. Codes Health states that customer data is never used to train AI models, that AI processing stays scoped to the case, and that no data is shared between clients. It adds AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2 or above in transit, single sign on, role based permissions, audit trails and BAAs in place where required. That answers training use and separation between customers. Privilege and work product treatment are not addressed. The two legal documents Codes Health publishes, the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy, govern its website and the personal data collected there. Neither reaches a claimant's medical records, and no customer agreement or BAA is published.
Written confidentiality commitments can now be read before signing, and none sits in a contract. LawPro.ai's privacy policy, effective 20 October 2026, covers uploaded case materials and protected health information. It says LawPro.ai does not sell, rent or license personal information or health data, and applies HIPAA's minimum necessary standard to all access. It shares data only with staff bound by confidentiality, business associates under BAAs and security auditors. Data is encrypted with TLS 1.2 or above in transit and AES-256 at rest. The policy limits training to de identified or aggregated data, and a July 2026 post says customer data is never used for model training. Separation between firms or matters, privilege and work product, and what any model provider may retain are not addressed. No terms of service or customer agreement is published.
UPL and Professional Responsibility Posture
Whether the vendor is clear that it supplies a tool rather than legal advice, who its audience is, and how it addresses unauthorized practice of law, competence and supervision duties, and jurisdiction limits. ABA Formal Opinion 512 is the reference point. Where the advice line is not the duty a product raises, the axis is read through the nearest professional duty it does raise: judicial conduct rules and the reviewing duty for products sold only to courts, and the duty to bill for time actually spent for products that draft time entries.
Nothing published addresses the advice line. There is no statement that Codes Health is not a law firm, no disclaimer of legal or medical advice, no jurisdiction limit, and nothing on how a firm should supervise the output. The Terms of Use disclaim warranties for the website and limit it to personal, noncommercial use, and none of that speaks to legal work. The gap matters because of what the product hands a firm. Chronologies, summaries and case relevant insights feed a demand package.
Nothing published addresses the advice line, on a product that drafts the documents a claim is presented through. LegalDocs produces demand letters, mediation and arbitration statements and deposition material, and SpecialsAI promises that a firm can instantly know what a case is worth. There is no statement that LawPro.ai is not a law firm, no disclaimer that its output is not legal advice and no jurisdiction limit. No supervision or competence guidance accompanies the drafts. A blog post tells lawyers in general to double check AI reports, which is advice to the market rather than a position on LawPro.ai's own product. No terms of service exist where a disclaimer could sit.
AI Governance and Bias Disclosure
Published governance over model behavior: who owns it inside the vendor, what is tested before release, and what is disclosed about disparate output across matter types, parties, or populations.
No governance position is published. There is no responsible AI page, no principles statement, no named owner for model behavior, no testing before release, and nothing on uneven output across injury types or claimant populations. The only policies are the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy, and both cover the website. The nearest statement is the AI data policy, which says customer data never trains the models and processing stays scoped to the case. That is a confidentiality commitment, not governance. The gap matters on a product that reads injured claimants' records and flags which findings matter to a case.
No governance position is published. There is no responsible AI page, principles statement, named owner, testing before release or management system, and nothing on uneven output. Hallucination Prevention Technology is an accuracy claim, not a governance framework, and it names no owner, testing program or results. A blog post on ethical AI advises firms to pick tools built on representative data, without saying what LawPro.ai itself does. The gap matters because the system reads injured claimants' records and estimates what a case is worth. Nothing says whether that estimate performs evenly across injury types, treatment histories or claimant populations.
AI Safety and Data Stewardship
Retention, deletion, access control, and what happens to prompts and documents after they are processed. Whether the vendor states its subprocessors and its incident practice, or leaves the buyer to assume.
Access controls are published, and what happens to case material afterward is not. Codes Health states AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2 or above in transit, single sign on, role based permissions and audit trails. It adds third party penetration testing and continuous monitoring. It says BAAs are in place where required and that more security documentation is available on request. No retention period is stated for retrieved records, chronologies or summaries, and no deletion or return commitment covers case material. No subprocessor or cloud provider is named, and no incident practice for the product is described. The Privacy Policy offers deletion on request and breach notice as the law requires, but it covers only data collected through the website.
Most of the ground is now covered in a published policy, and no subprocessor is named. The privacy policy, effective 20 October 2026, reaches uploaded files, case materials and protected health information. It keeps health data for at least six years under HIPAA, then deletes, destroys or de identifies it by NIST approved methods. Access runs on role based controls, multifactor sign in and least privilege, with continuous monitoring, audit logging and automated threat detection. Incident response preserves evidence under chain of custody controls. A breach is notified to individuals, customers and regulators without unreasonable delay. Business associates and subcontractors work under BAAs, and none is named. No cloud provider is identified, and the policy does not say what happens to a firm's files when its contract ends.
AI Liability and Recourse
What the vendor stands behind contractually when its output is wrong. Indemnities, caps, carve outs, insurance, and whether any of it is published or only reachable through a negotiated agreement.
Nothing published addresses who bears the loss when the product is wrong. The Terms of Use provide the website as is and exclude consequential damages. Where state law does not allow those exclusions, liability is capped at $100. The indemnity runs one way from the user, claims must be brought within two years, and Delaware law applies. Every one of those terms governs use of the website, which the terms describe as a place to learn about Codes Health's services. None reaches a missed record, a wrong chronology or a misread insight. No customer agreement, accuracy commitment, output warranty, indemnity or insurance position is published.
Nothing published addresses who bears the loss when the system is wrong. No terms of service, customer agreement or master subscription agreement is published, so there is no indemnity, cap, warranty, disclaimer or insurance statement to read. The Fulfillment Policy covers only cancellation notice and final billing and defers to the signed contract. The privacy policy addresses data handling, not liability. A firm cannot learn before a sales process what LawPro.ai stands behind when a chronology omits a treatment, an itemization understates specials, or a drafted demand misstates the record.
Practice Systems Integration Depth
How deeply the product reaches into the systems legal work already lives in: document management such as iManage and NetDocuments, Word and Outlook, contract lifecycle management, matter management, e-billing, and court filing systems.
Two case systems are named with a stated function, and no depth sits behind either. Codes Health says firms can request records from inside Filevine and SmartAdvocate. It reports that Filevine announced the partnership in July 2026, embedding record retrieval in the Filevine case file. Firms on other systems request and track records in the Codes Health platform. High volume firms can get custom integrations with their CRM or case software, and more integrations are promised. Nothing states what syncs, in which direction, on what trigger, or what a firm must configure. There is no API, developer documentation or integrations page.
Real connectors are described with what they move, short of depth for each system. LawPro.ai's connectors to case management systems create a LawPro.ai case when one opens in the firm's system and pull new documents in automatically. They send AI generated PDF and Excel outputs back to the case system. The one page integration sheet says the connectors need no coding or developer support and carry no integration fee. The SmartAdvocate partnership adds one click import of records, and the joint announcement says data flows back into SmartAdvocate. Litify's logo sits among the integration partners, and the other partner logos carry no names. Nothing says which fields map, what a firm configures, or how each system differs, and no API or developer documentation is published.
Deployment Model and Data Residency
Where the software runs and where the data sits. Multi tenant cloud, single tenant, private deployment, on premises, and whether region of residence is a published option or an enterprise conversation.
Cloud delivery is clear, and neither tenancy nor region is stated for the product. Firms log in to a hosted application, and no on premises or dedicated option is described. No cloud provider is named. Nothing says whether the platform is single or multi tenant, and no region is given for claimant records or AI processing. The Privacy Policy keeps data on servers in the United States and bars third parties from moving it abroad. That policy covers personal data collected through the website, not claimant records, so it does not settle where the case material sits.
Cloud delivery is stated, and neither tenancy nor residency is addressed. Firms work in a browser with their own login credentials, and no on premises or dedicated option is mentioned. Nothing says whether the platform is single or multi tenant. No region is named for storage or processing, and no cloud provider is identified. The privacy policy is silent on where data is kept or whether it leaves the United States. The only address published is the company's office on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles, which locates the company rather than the data.
Security Certifications and Trust Center
Independent attestation a buyer can pull without a sales call: SOC 2, ISO 27001, penetration test summaries, a trust center with current reports and named scope rather than a badge image.
SOC 2 and HIPAA are both claimed by name, with no type, scope, date or auditor. Codes Health describes its systems as HIPAA and SOC 2 compliant, citing SOC 2 controls, third party penetration testing and continuous monitoring. It says additional security and compliance documentation is available on request, with no portal or form. No SOC 2 type, examination period or auditor is given. No ISO or HITRUST certification is claimed, and there is no trust center. HIPAA compliance is a statutory duty the company attests to itself, while a SOC 2 report would carry a dated scope that Codes Health has not published.
Two badges appear in the footer, with nothing behind either. Every page carries a HIPAA mark dated 2026 and an AICPA SOC for Service Organizations mark, both as images with no type, scope, period or auditor. The privacy policy says safeguards meet or exceed HIPAA and SOC 2 requirements, and that independent audits and penetration testing are aligned with NIST and SOC 2. Alignment with a framework is not a report, and no route to request one is offered. There is no trust center or security page. HIPAA compliance is a duty the company attests to itself, while a SOC examination produces a dated report with a defined scope. The badge does not say which systems were examined.
Model Supply Chain Disclosure
Which models sit underneath, whose they are, where they run, and whether the vendor commits to telling customers when that changes. A legal buyer inherits every dependency it cannot see.
Codes Health refers to its AI throughout and identifies nothing underneath it. Its pages describe AI powered retrieval, automated review, AI summaries and private AI processing, and the AI data policy speaks of AI models without naming them. No model, version, provider, hosting arrangement or processing location is named. No commitment to notify customers of a change is published. The statement that BAAs are in place where required concedes that outside vendors touch protected health information, while naming none of them. A firm cannot learn whose model reads a claimant's medical file.
LawPro.ai names its own framework and nothing underneath it. Hallucination Prevention Technology is presented as a patent pending proprietary framework, and the rest of the estate speaks of its AI platform. No model, provider, version or processing location is named, and no change notice is published. ChatGPT appears only as a point of comparison on the Case Assistant page. The privacy policy mentions business associates and subcontractors under BAAs and names none of them. A firm cannot say whose model reads a claimant's medical file.
Commercial Transparency
Whether a buyer can learn what this costs without entering a sales process: published rates, the unit being charged, what sits behind an enterprise tier, and what implementation adds.
The charging model is described, and no figure appears anywhere. There is no pricing page. The FAQ calls the pricing usage based, and the state guides describe a flat fee with no charges for follow ups, however many contacts a request takes. A request resent because a provider lost or misfiled the first submission costs nothing extra. Retrieval, organization and AI chronologies are included rather than priced separately. No rate, range, minimum, term or volume tier is published. The provider copying fees in the state guides are hospital charges, not Codes Health's own. A firm can describe the shape of the invoice before calling and cannot estimate it.
No price, unit or tier is published. Pricing sits in the navigation and the footer, and the link leads to a not found page. Every other commercial route is a form to start a free trial or speak with an expert, and no trial length is given. LawPro.ai lists what its plan includes: onboarding, AI summaries, medical timelines and billing, an AI chat assistant and a customer success manager. Its integration sheet adds that LawPro.ai charges no integration fee. Neither says whether the product is charged per seat, case, page or firm. The Fulfillment Policy leaves commercial terms to a signed contract.
Firm and Practice Coverage
Who the product is actually built for. AmLaw, midlaw, small firm and solo, in house departments, government and courts, and which practice areas are supported rather than merely claimed.
The buyer is named plainly, and the edges are left open. Every page addresses plaintiff law firms. Use case pages cover personal injury, workers' compensation, Social Security disability, medical malpractice and mass torts. Retrieval covers providers in all fifty states, and state and city guides set out submission rules, response windows and fee schedules for named hospital systems. The two customer stories span a one attorney practice and a firm with more than 20 attorneys, and custom integrations are offered to high volume firms. Defense firms, insurers, in house teams and government are never addressed, and no matter type is excluded.
The buyer is named precisely, and the edges are left open. The navigation names three segments with their own pages: personal injury firms, healthcare networks and revenue cycle operations. Two of those buyers sit outside law. Within legal, the scope is injury claims throughout, with no claim to other practice areas. The workflow follows that practice, from intake and record review to the chronology, itemized specials, the demand, mediation and arbitration statements and deposition preparation. Testimonials come from small, midsize and large firms. No firm size limit, excluded record type or position on defense and insurer use is stated. That matters because the same platform is sold to healthcare networks and revenue cycle teams whose interests can sit opposite a claimant's.
The 12 legal signals, side by side
Recorded rather than graded. These are the questions a practitioner has to answer before a tool touches a client matter, and the answers are taken from public material only.
Client Data in Training
Can material a lawyer puts into this product be used to train a model?
Codes Health's policy says never, and no agreement is published that could bind it. Its security section states that customer data is never used to train AI models, that AI processing stays scoped to the case, and that no data is shared between clients. The only published terms are the Terms of Use, which govern the marketing website and contain no training, machine learning or de identified use clause. The Privacy Policy lets Codes Health and its business partners keep de identified data indefinitely and share it in a form that reveals no personal information.
That policy covers personal data collected through the website and never names training. No model provider is named, so nothing says what a provider may do with claimant content.
LawPro.ai's privacy policy allows training on de identified or aggregated data, and no agreement is published that could bind it. The policy, effective 20 October 2026, covers uploaded files, case materials and protected health information. Among the purposes for which LawPro.ai uses that information, it lists training and quality assurance using de identified or aggregated data only. It does not say whether that training is of models or of staff.
The stronger statement sits in a July 2026 blog post, which says LawPro.ai never uses a firm's data for model training. No terms of service or customer agreement is published, and no model provider is named, so nothing says what a provider may keep.
Prompt and Output Retention
How long does the product keep what a lawyer typed, and can that be set to zero?
How long Codes Health keeps retrieved records, chronologies, summaries or insights is not stated, and no deletion or return commitment covers case material. The Privacy Policy keeps personal data only as long as necessary and names the factors that set the period without giving one. It adds that backups may hold copies that are hard to erase. That policy covers data collected through the website, not claimant records. Audit trails record actions, not how long their subjects persist.
Retention is acknowledged with a floor and no window for work in use. The privacy policy keeps protected health information for at least six years under HIPAA, or longer where law or contract requires, then deletes, destroys or de identifies it. Other data is kept as long as its purpose or legal and contractual duties require. Case Assistant chats are saved per case. Nothing sets a period for prompts or outputs or lets a firm shorten one, and nothing says what happens to a firm's files when its contract ends.
Ethical Walls and Matter Segregation
Does retrieval respect the firm’s ethical walls, or can the model read across them?
Separation is asserted in specific terms, and nothing says how it is enforced. Codes Health states that AI processing stays scoped to the case and that no data is shared between clients. It adds that single sign on, role based permissions and audit trails ensure only authorized users can access case data. That covers separation between customers and access inside a firm. Nothing says whether the platform is single or multi tenant, no permission model is documented, and no matter level walls inside a firm's workspace are described. There is no administrator documentation or security paper to test it against.
Case level scoping is asserted for the assistant, and nothing says how it is enforced. LawPro.ai says only data tied to the current case is accessible to Case Assistant, and that users can only view chats they started. The privacy policy lists role based access controls and least privilege authorization. Nothing says whether the platform is single or multi tenant, how firms are kept apart, or whether matter level walls exist inside a firm's workspace.
That matters because the same platform is sold to healthcare networks and revenue cycle operations as well as to plaintiff firms.
Third Party Request and Subpoena Notice
If someone subpoenas the vendor for a firm’s data, does the firm hear about it first?
Disclosure to authorities is addressed, and customer notice is not. The Privacy Policy allows Codes Health to share data to comply with legal processes, enforceable government requests or court orders. No commitment to notify, no reservation of discretion over notifying and no transparency report appears anywhere. The provision sits in a policy that covers personal data collected through the website. Nothing addresses what happens when a claimant's records held in the platform are demanded by legal process.
Disclosure under legal process is addressed, and customer notice is not. The privacy policy permits disclosure to regulators, auditors or law enforcement when law, subpoena or regulatory mandate requires it. No commitment to notify the firm, no reservation of discretion and no transparency report appears. The policy covers uploaded case material, so the provision reaches a claimant's medical file on the platform.
Primary Law Corpus Provenance
Where does the law in this product come from, and does the vendor have the right to use it?
No legal content feeds Codes Health's output. The product works on a client's own medical and billing records, obtained from providers under an authorization. No case law database, statute source, publisher or licensed reference set sits behind an answer. The state guides cite record access statutes and fee rules as guidance for firms, not as product output.
No legal content feeds LawPro.ai's output. The models work on the firm's own client records, bills and case documents, uploaded by the firm, and the product does not retrieve or present case law or statute. No publisher, database or licensed reference set sits behind its answers.
Good Law Verification
Does the product tell you when the authority it just cited has been overruled?
Codes Health does not cite primary law in its product. Its output is chronologies, summaries and case insights drawn from medical records. The state and city guides cite record access provisions such as 45 CFR 164.524, but that is published guidance for firms, and no currency check is described for it.
LawPro.ai does not cite primary law. Its citations point to pages in the client's uploaded records, and its outputs are chronologies, cost itemizations, summaries and drafted demand and deposition material. Nothing addresses checking an authority for later history, which this product has no reason to do.
Refusal and Uncertainty Behavior
What does the product do when the answer is not in the corpus?
No path is described for output the system cannot ground. There is no abstention state and no confidence or grounding score, and no handling is stated for a record that is illegible, contradictory or incomplete. Missing record detection reports gaps in the source records, not doubt about the system's own output. Human verification before delivery is an oversight control rather than an uncertainty behavior.
Output that fails the grounding check has no described fate. Hallucination Prevention Technology is said to check that outputs are grounded in source documents before users see them. Nothing says whether an ungrounded finding is suppressed, flagged, retried or returned with a caveat. Case Assistant answers any question the timeline data supports, and nothing says what it does with one it cannot answer. No abstention path or confidence signal is described.
Fabricated Citation Record
Does a public court record exist addressing fabricated or hallucinated legal citations in output from this product?
No court order, opinion or disciplinary record in the AI Hallucination Cases database names Codes Health or Codes Health Inc. Codes Health's AI summarizes medical records rather than citing case law, and people review its files before delivery. This is a statement about the public record on one subject, not a finding about the product.
No court order, opinion or disciplinary record in the AI Hallucination Cases database names LawPro.ai or LawPro.ai, Inc. Its citations point to a client's own medical records rather than to case law, though its drafted demands can travel into a claim. This is a statement about the public record on one subject, not a finding about the product.
Bar Guidance Alignment
Has the vendor engaged in public with the ethics opinions its buyers are bound by?
Codes Health does not engage with the ethics guidance its buyers are bound by. No bar opinion, rule of professional conduct or general professional responsibility reference appears, and nothing addresses a lawyer's duties when relying on the product. Its regulatory material is extensive but sits in another field. HIPAA, state record access statutes and provider fee schedules govern how records are obtained, not how a lawyer may use the tool that obtains them.
Professional responsibility comes up in general terms, and no authority is named. A July 2026 post on ethical AI says the American Bar Association and other professional bodies stress supervising AI use and reviewing vendor policies. It tells lawyers to double check AI reports and to be open with clients about AI use. Other posts speak of adopting AI ethically and responsibly. No ethics opinion, rule of professional conduct or state guidance is named. Nothing maps a firm's duties when it relies on a drafted demand or a case valuation from the platform.
Billing and Fee Posture
Does the vendor address what happens to the bill when the work takes an hour instead of six?
The service reaches the client as a case cost, and nothing addresses what the client is told. The buyers are contingency fee plaintiff firms, for whom record retrieval is an expense advanced and later recovered from a settlement. Codes Health publishes flat fee pricing with follow ups and AI chronologies included. It claims 2.5 times faster turnaround and 50 percent more capacity for new cases. No guidance on fee or disclosure treatment is published, and no per matter record of AI assisted work is described. Nothing addresses how the charge or the AI summaries should be presented to the client.
Time and money claims run throughout, and nothing addresses the client's bill. LawPro.ai claims 50 hours saved per case, $90,000 more revenue per lawyer and twice the demands written per week at a named firm. A testimonial reports a full day a week saved for each of three support staff. LawPro.ai also says law firms spend $6 billion a year on case support costs that can be automated. No per matter record of AI assisted work is offered and no fee or disclosure guidance is published.
The buyers work on contingency, so faster preparation does not shrink a client's bill, and LawPro.ai frames the saved time as more cases and more revenue per lawyer.
Outside Counsel Guideline Readiness
Can a firm get this vendor through a client’s AI clause without a bespoke negotiation?
Documentation exists on request, and nothing published would let a firm answer its client. Codes Health says BAAs are in place where required and that additional security and compliance documentation is available on request. There is no portal, form or named document set. No subprocessor, cloud provider or model provider is named, and no data processing addendum or client notice pack is published. The commitments a firm could forward are the security section's own: no training on customer data, case scoped processing, no sharing between clients and encryption.
Whose model reads a client's medical file is a question a firm cannot answer for its own client. No subprocessor list is published, and no model, model provider or cloud provider is named. The privacy policy says business associates and subcontractors work under BAAs and names none of them. No data processing addendum, consent pack or route to request one is offered. SmartAdvocate and Litify are integration partners, not suppliers processing client content for LawPro.ai.
Court Disclosure Support
If a judge’s standing order requires an AI disclosure, can the product produce one?
The product keeps a provenance trail for records and none for model output. Firms see each request's stage and an audit trail of actions, which shows how a record was obtained. People and AI verify each file, with no artifact recording that check per document. No export of model usage, no attribution of a chronology or insight to a model, and no disclosure template or guidance exist. The outputs travel into demand packages and, where a matter does not settle, into filings.
Elements of a record exist in the output, short of anything built for disclosure. Every Case Assistant answer links to the source document and page, chats are saved per case, and the privacy policy describes audit logging. LawPro.ai says its reports and chronologies are auditable, so attorneys can review, verify and explain every insight. No model or version is identified against an output, and nothing marks which parts of a drafted demand the machine wrote.
No human verification is captured and no export is described. No guidance or template on disclosing AI assisted work is published.

In summary
Codes Health
Codes Health is a New York record retrieval service for plaintiff law firms, founded in 2024 and backed by Y Combinator. Its team owns each request from submission to delivery and chases providers in all fifty states. People and AI check every file before it arrives, and the platform adds chronologies, summaries, case insights and missing record detection. Firms can order records from inside Filevine or SmartAdvocate, and its customers range from a one attorney practice to Daly & Black, with more than 20 attorneys. Codes Health, the AI Legal Index sums up, keeps AI processing scoped to each case, shares no data between clients and says customer data never trains its models. The main caveat is that its Terms of Use and Privacy Policy cover only its website, so those promises sit on product pages rather than in a published agreement. Pricing is a flat fee quoted on request.
LawPro.ai
LawPro.ai is a Los Angeles platform that turns an uploaded injury file into a chronology, an itemization of medical specials and drafted demand, mediation and deposition documents. It was cofounded by a practicing personal injury lawyer and sells to plaintiff firms of every size, healthcare networks and revenue cycle teams. Case Assistant answers questions from the chronology with a citation to the source page. Connectors pull cases and documents from systems such as SmartAdvocate and send outputs back. The AI Legal Index's take on LawPro.ai is that its privacy policy covers uploaded case files, keeps health data for at least six years and limits training to de identified or aggregated data. The main caveat is that no terms of service or customer agreement is published, and no price, unit or plan figure appears anywhere.
Questions buyers ask
How does Codes Health compare to LawPro.ai for a personal injury firm?
Codes Health and LawPro.ai cover different steps of a case. Codes Health retrieves medical records from providers, checks them for gaps and delivers chronologies and summaries, with its own staff doing the chasing. LawPro.ai works on records a firm uploads and drafts from them, producing specials totals, demand letters, mediation statements and deposition material. A firm that struggles to get complete records would look first at Codes Health. A firm that has the records but is slow to turn them into a demand would look first at LawPro.ai. From the AI Legal Index, based on each vendor's own published materials as of November 5, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
How much do Codes Health and LawPro.ai cost?
Neither Codes Health nor LawPro.ai publishes a price. Codes Health describes a flat fee rather than charges per page, with follow ups, resent requests and AI chronologies included, and quotes the figure on request. LawPro.ai lists what its plan includes, from onboarding and AI summaries to a chat assistant and a customer success manager, and charges no integration fee. LawPro.ai does not say whether it charges per seat, case or page, and it offers a free trial of unstated length. From the AI Legal Index, based on each vendor's own published materials as of November 5, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
Do Codes Health and LawPro.ai train AI on client medical records?
Codes Health states that customer data is never used to train AI models and that AI processing stays scoped to each case, with no sharing between clients. Its Terms of Use and Privacy Policy cover only its website, so no published agreement carries that promise. As the AI Legal Index puts it, LawPro.ai's privacy policy covers uploaded case files and lists training and quality assurance using de identified or aggregated data only, while a LawPro.ai blog post says a firm's data never trains its models. Neither Codes Health nor LawPro.ai publishes a customer agreement or names its AI model provider.
How do Codes Health and LawPro.ai protect and keep medical records?
Codes Health and LawPro.ai both encrypt data with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2 or above in transit, and both use role based access. Codes Health states HIPAA and SOC 2 compliance and offers more security documentation on request, but sets no retention period for case material. LawPro.ai shows HIPAA and SOC badges with no report behind them, and keeps protected health information for at least six years before deleting or de identifying it. Neither names a cloud provider or a storage region, and both allow disclosure under legal process without promising to tell the firm. From the AI Legal Index, based on each vendor's own published materials as of November 5, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
Which case management systems do Codes Health and LawPro.ai work with?
Codes Health lets firms request records from inside Filevine and SmartAdvocate. Firms on other systems request and track records in the Codes Health platform, and high volume firms can get custom integrations. LawPro.ai's connectors create a case when one opens in the firm's system, pull new documents in and send PDF and Excel outputs back. LawPro.ai adds one click import from SmartAdvocate and shows Litify among its partners. Neither Codes Health nor LawPro.ai publishes an API or field level documentation. From the AI Legal Index, based on each vendor's own published materials as of November 5, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
Neither vendor paid for inclusion, placement or a grade, and neither reviewed this page before it published. Everything on it comes from public material on the dates shown. How the index grades.
Neither vendor publishes a price, a customer agreement, the AI model behind its output, or a date and method for its customer results. Neither states that it is not a law firm or what a lawyer should check before relying on its output. On a Codes Health order, the points to settle are the flat fee and what it covers, how long retrieved records and summaries are kept, and whether the security documentation includes a SOC 2 report. On a LawPro.ai order, they are the unit of charge, whether de identified case data trains its models, and what happens to a firm's files when the contract ends.
