Straight answers

Before you request access.

Will I be charged automatically after 14 days?

No. The current trial does not require a card, and paid billing is not live. When paid access opens, continuing after the trial will require a separate checkout at the price and terms shown then.

What does the $69 plan include?

The initial plan continues the CourtAhead workspace after the trial, including one active case map, documents connected to events, legal issues, and open questions. Exact usage limits will be shown before paid checkout opens.

Can I cancel?

Yes. The initial plan is month to month. You may cancel anytime online; cancellation stops the next renewal, and access continues through the current paid period. See the Cancellation and Refund Policy for refund terms.

Do the free tools start my trial?

No. The public tools run without an account. A trial begins only for an invited CourtAhead account.

Does requesting an invitation create an account?

No. It adds your email to the private-access invitation list after you consent. An account is created only through the separate invitation and activation flow.

Is CourtAhead a legal service?

No. CourtAhead is a guided case navigator. It helps organize and explain the record, but it is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or representation.

Private access opens in small cohorts

See your case clearly before paying for the workspace.

Request an invitation for the 14-day trial or start with any public tool—both paths are available without a card.
