Navigate the workspace
CourtAid's sidebar is your main navigation. Everything is scoped to a country (Australia, New Zealand, or UK) — your URL reflects this, e.g. /au for Australia.

Research

New Chat
Opens the landing page where you ask legal research questions in plain English. Toggle to Search on the input bar if you want a results feed instead. Sign-in is not required to open the page; queries apply when you're signed in and send AI messages.
Search
Opens the summary feed with Smart and Boolean modes, filters, and List/Map views. Marked Free — browsing Search does not use your query allowance. See Your first search.
History
Opens your global chat history — past conversations and favourited documents. Separate from Chat history under Projects, which only shows conversations inside a project workspace.

Pricing
For full plan details, tiers, and current prices, visit the CourtAid pricing page.
CourtAid offers monthly and annual billing. Annual plans include two months free. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time — changes take effect from your next billing period.
Prices shown when you click Upgrade in the app are managed through Stripe and may differ from the marketing site. Treat courtaid.ai/pricing as the overview; confirm the exact price at checkout. Pricing is subject to change.
For enterprise or group licences (multiple seats), contact the team via the pricing page or support chat.
