Pay $10,000 once for the license. No subscription, no renewal.
Subscriptions take a cut of every month’s retainers. The license costs about one modest retainer, paid once. Every retainer after that stays with your firm.
You pay $10,000 for the license and buy the appliance at the seller’s current price. No data held hostage, no per document surcharges, no outside AI account to manage.
The license covers all of it, trial and appeal work included.

The left column assumes ninety nine dollars per person per month across six people, ordinary for this category. Hardware is priced by the seller and not included.
It is under twenty thousand dollars, and you pay it once.
Ten for the license, plus the hardware at the seller's price, about six and a half to ten today. It is not financed and there is no payment plan. That is a real number for a small firm, so here is the honest accounting of it.
Why there is no payment plan
We are a small shop. Offering terms would mean carrying the financing cost and raising the price to cover it. We would rather quote the real number than a larger one spread out. If the timing is wrong, say so on the call and we will tell you when to revisit.
What the money buys
Hardware you own and software licensed to you permanently. If we stopped answering the phone tomorrow, the appliance keeps running on your network, your files stay where they are, and nothing expires. That is the part a subscription cannot offer at any price.
When it pays for itself
Against a six person firm on a per seat subscription at ninety nine a month, the five year comparison is $35,640 against a one time purchase.
You have been oversold before. So check us before you pay.
Every attorney we talk to has been promised something by a large vendor that did not survive contact with a real case. We cannot argue our way out of that, so we would rather be checkable than convincing.
- Ask what it does badly. We will answer.
- Thirty minutes. We show you DilloLex running, answer your questions, and tell you plainly if it is not a fit.
- Where a figure on this site is an estimate or a benchmark, it says so on the page it appears.
- A founder answers the phone, every day from 8am to 8pm. Not a sales team, not a scheduler. If your practice is not a fit we will say so on the first call.
- Take the data flow description to your malpractice carrier before you buy. We will help you prepare it.
Clear lines, no surprises.
| You provide | DilloLex provides |

| Your practice & calendar tools (Clio, Outlook) | The full document automation software stack, including Clio integration |
| A spot on your office network | Onboarding with your firm’s templates and tags |
| Attorney review and approval of all output | A written data flow description before the system goes live |
How much does the hardware cost?
The system needs the NVIDIA DGX Spark with 128 GB of memory and 4 TB of storage; the 64 GB model cannot run it. Equipment cost is set by the seller and rose sharply in 2026 with the worldwide memory shortage, so we quote the current figure on the call. DilloLex does not set hardware pricing; the client purchases the hardware separately.
Does DilloLex pay for itself?
That depends on your volume and your rates. On the call we walk through where the hours go in your practice.
What happens if DilloLex stops?
The appliance keeps working. The version installed that day keeps running, fully offline, with no license check and no call home required to function.
How do I pay?
By check or ACH bank transfer, with no fee, or by credit card with a 3% processing fee that is shown before you pay.
This section is general information, not legal or financial advice. Firm management is responsible for evaluating DilloLex against their own volume, staffing, and financial picture.
