What it does

Hebbia is an AI research tool for document-heavy finance, legal, and consulting work. Its core product, Max, lets an analyst ask a question across large sets of documents at once, such as hundreds of contracts, filings, or earnings transcripts, and get answers with citations back to the source. Investment banks, asset managers, and law firms use it; customers include Morgan Stanley and Centerview Partners. It connects to SEC filings, FactSet, S&P Capital IQ, PitchBook, and Preqin, and to internal file storage like SharePoint, OneDrive, Box, and Dropbox. Hebbia states it does not train models on customer data and keeps each client's data isolated. It holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 42001 certifications and supports US and EU processing regions.

Where it can help

This fits an investment firm, law firm, or consulting practice whose core job is reading dense documents, such as due diligence, credit analysis, or contract review, especially where junior staff now search filings, transcripts, and contracts by hand. A sensible starting point is a pilot with one analyst team on one workflow, like diligence document review, using your own document set rather than a generic demo. Hebbia does not publish pricing, so treat any figure as a placeholder and get a quote tied to your seat count and data sources. Because it is built for specialized, document-heavy work, it may be more than a team needs if its main need is simple everyday company search.

How the number is calculated

The score converts the baseline ELO rating onto the TriVista scale. The headline badge rounds to a whole number. Scores are not silently clipped or capped.

TriVista Score = 50 + (ELO − 1350) / 6

Before you choose
  • Customer feedback is not yet strong enough to change the starting rating.
  • The starting rating includes a product-specific comparison.
  • Check the current price before you decide.
  • We recorded rollout time, how it runs, and when it does not fit.
How company details affect the score

The model adjusts the starting rating using the company details you select. Use these estimates to prioritize your review, then test the tool against your own requirements.

Required controls

Security and safe use

Confirm encryption, how the vendor uses your data, customer data separation, how long data stays and how to delete it, activity records, sign-in and user setup, where data is handled, other companies that process data, past incidents, and what your team must manage.

Exit and rollback

Keep source documents in the data room or repository and export Hebbia projects, matrices, questions, citations, annotations, outputs, and reviewer corrections. Matrix logic and retrieval behavior may not transfer directly, so preserve the workpaper and retest representative analyses on a replacement.
