CaseBriefly vs. LexPlug: Free Case Briefs for Every Law Student
Legal education comes with enough financial stress. Students already juggle tuition, books, and living expenses, and paying extra for study tools only adds to the burden. LexPlug is one of the newer entrants in the space, charging students a monthly subscription for access to case briefs.
FREE
Subscription Required
Access Without Barriers
LexPlug provides a library of prewritten case briefs, but access is locked behind a subscription fee. CaseBriefly generates comprehensive case briefs instantly and makes them free for every student. With CaseBriefly there is no monthly payment and no limit on how many cases you can brief.
Every student deserves access to high-quality study materials regardless of their financial situation. CaseBriefly removes all barriers to legal education resources.
Technology That Works for You
LexPlug relies on a static database of briefs. CaseBriefly uses advanced AI to transform any case into a structured, law school formatted brief in under thirty seconds. Students are not restricted to what has already been written. They can enter the case name, court, and year, and CaseBriefly produces the analysis immediately.

CaseBriefly Advantages

Features That Go Beyond Reading
LexPlug provides briefs to read. CaseBriefly gives students a complete toolkit for learning and retention. Briefs can be turned into flashcards for active exam preparation. Cold Call Mode produces quick two sentence summaries for classroom participation. Gunner Mode simulates a live professor who asks questions and grades answers, preparing students for the pressure of the Socratic method.

These interactive features prepare students for the realities of law school: cold calls, timed exams, and active retention. LexPlug offers none of these study enhancements.
Free by Design
LexPlug, like Quimbee before it, treats access to case briefs as a paid product. CaseBriefly is built on a different philosophy. Every student should have equal access to high quality study materials regardless of their financial situation. That is why CaseBriefly is completely free.
The Financial Reality for Law Students

Why Free Matters
Adding subscription fees for basic study tools creates unnecessary financial barriers. CaseBriefly believes legal education resources should be accessible to all students, not just those who can afford additional monthly payments.
The Bottom Line
LexPlug shows that there is demand for modern study aids in law school. CaseBriefly proves that students should not have to pay for them. By combining instant AI generated case briefs with interactive study tools, all at no cost, CaseBriefly is redefining how law students prepare for class and exams.
