Which one is for you

Pick Hebbia if

  • Fits if you work in banking, private equity or credit and review big document sets
  • Works for law firms pulling terms out of many contracts at once

Look elsewhere if

  • Not for you if you want a published price, as only a demo request is offered
  • Skip it if you are an individual or small team, since it is aimed at institutional finance and legal work
  • Watch out: connectors such as FactSet or PitchBook depend on a licence you pay for separately
  • Not for you if you want a free try, because none is offered

Pick Grep AI if

  • Fits if you run compliance checks or onboarding research and want agents to do the legwork
  • Works for teams that would rather pay per task than sign a contract

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you are only testing: the 100 credits are one-time and cover about 5 tasks
  • Pricey if you need exports or custom agents, which start on Pro at $167 a month
  • Watch out: the Parcha line was retired and clients are sent to support@parcha.ai, so older material may not match
  • Watch out: premium data on Pay As You Go needs a balance of at least $50
  • Not for you if you want shared team agents and SSO, as those are sold through sales with no price

  • It is built for institutional finance and legal work, not for individuals or small teams without those data sources.
  • Many data connectors, such as FactSet or PitchBook, depend on the firm having its own license for that data.

  • Free Trial credits are one-time, and the free trial has no exports, custom agents or API access.

Key features

Hebbia

Max
An agent that takes on deal-team tasks such as modeling, screening a target list, spreading comps and recapping earnings calls from the firm's own data.
Matrix
A grid where rows are companies or documents and columns are questions, so one analysis runs across many sources at once.
Financial and filings data
Integrations listed include FactSet, S&P Global, PitchBook, Fitch Solutions, Octus and Moody's, alongside SEC filings and earnings transcripts.
Data room and file connections
Connectors are listed for Datasite, SharePoint, OneDrive, Box, Dropbox and Snowflake.
API access
The platform page shows firms building their own tools on Hebbia's API, including white-labeled front ends.
Security controls
The vendor says customer data is never used to train models, is siloed per customer, and can be processed regionally in the US or EU or on a dedicated tenant.

Grep AI

Library of built-in agents
The site lists more than 250 agents, such as company research briefs, board briefs and audit readiness checklists, that can be used as a starting point.
Agent swarms
A lead agent assembles specialist agents for a job, such as rating a list of businesses for risk, and exports the results as a CSV.
Custom agents from a description
Teams describe a procedure or upload a policy document and get a reusable agent, which can be run from chat, TypeScript, Python, REST or MCP.
Compliance and due diligence work
The vendor lists KYB verification, AML screening, enhanced due diligence and document verification among its solutions for banks and fintechs.
Data controls
The vendor says it does not train on customer data and that agents reach data through an isolated proxy, so they never see credentials.

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
