Where legal work becomes company work
The difference isn't the model. It's the room.
Most AI is single-player: one person, one thread, one context that dies when the tab closes. Hops is multiplayer. Your team and its agents share the same space, the same conversations, the same docs, the same memory. Ask once, and the whole team has it.
When to use which
Harvey is built for the practice of law: legal research, due diligence, bulk document analysis, and complex legal workflows at large firms and legal departments. Hops is for the work that moves across departments, with people, agents, docs, and tools operating from shared context.
