Clarra

What Clarra does

Clarra is a cloud-based legal case management SaaS platform purpose-built for docket-driven litigation, spun off in October 2023 from San Francisco-based litigation firm Schneider Wallace Cottrell Konecky LLP and headquartered in Palo Alto, California. The platform unifies matter management, event and deadline tracking, document management, timekeeping, contact management, billing, and reporting into a single workflow, with differentiating capabilities including jurisdiction-aware closed-loop docketing, plaintiff and sub-matter management for mass torts, MDLs, and class actions, and no-code administrator customization. The technology stack is built on Microsoft Azure with Azure AI for generative AI features (timeslip generation, document summarization, date extraction), REST-based public API access, and a documented Zapier connector reaching 6,000+ applications. Clarra integrates natively with NetDocuments, iManage, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, CalendarRules, Twilio, Domo, and QuickBooks Online, and has achieved SOC 2 Type II certification.

The company operates a hybrid go-to-market motion combining direct enterprise sales with a freemium product-led growth model: a free tier with up to 5 open matters and 10GB storage is available without a credit card, while paid tiers (Essentials at $47/user/month, Growth at $55/user/month, Enterprise at $75-$85/user/month) add advanced customization, integrations, and unlimited matters, with usage-based per-matter overage pricing that scales down to $0.10/matter at volume. Target customers include litigation law firms (Jones Walker, Womble Bond Dickinson, Schneider Wallace, Callahan & Blaine), insurance carriers and public adjusters (Swanson Martin Bell, Northside Adjusters), entertainment companies, and enterprise legal operations teams. Distribution is augmented by implementation partners (Sikich, 3545 Consulting, Sageness) and technology partner co-marketing. Clarra has no disclosed institutional venture funding, no published revenue, and operates with an 11-50 employee headcount; it has received LegalTech Breakthrough Awards in both 2024 (SMB Case Management Solution of the Year) and 2025 (Case Management Innovation of the Year).
