Clio Docket vs Docket Navigator

Clio Docket is a court-monitoring and filing-search feature inside Clio Work, not a separate subscription. It watches connected court dockets and alerts users in Clio Work when filings, motions, orders, or scheduling changes appear. From within a matter, users can search more than 1 billion U.S. federal and state court filings by party, case number, keyword, or court. Retrieved documents are named and saved to the relevant Clio matter folder. Coverage includes federal district, appellate, and bankruptcy courts, plus PTAB, TTAB, ITC, NLRB, and major state trial courts. Clio describes Docket as built for litigators already using Clio. It is included with Clio Work, which uses per-user pricing, but the displayed price is not available; some court materials may carry separate fees shown before purchase. Docket is available to eligible Clio Work customers in supported U.S. jurisdictions beginning August 18, 2026. Clio says its platform is SOC 2 Type II certified and encrypts data in transit and at rest. It also says Clio Work client information is not used to train external AI models.

Docket Navigator is a litigation research and intelligence platform built on structured litigation data. Licensed U.S. attorneys hand-code most of its data, and court orders can be captured across as many as 29 fields. Search filters cover document type, motion posture and result, legal issues, parties, firms, attorneys, courts, patents, text, case status, outcomes, and dates. Its taxonomies include more than 700 motion types and more than 1,600 legal concepts. Case Profile Alerts deliver new docket entries with attorney-written document summaries and links. The Docket Report summarizes daily patent, copyright, and trademark litigation in U.S. district courts, with patent coverage also including PTAB and ITC activity. New Case Alerts monitor PACER throughout the day for covered cases. Case, patent, party, and judge profiles provide litigation history, outcomes, timing, and decision information. Group accounts can add Docket Navigator Connect to connect research with an organization’s AI provider platform; its help page lists Claude. The platform is available on web and API. A 30-day trial is offered, but there is no free plan.
