A Lexology alternative that does the reading for you
Lexology is a deep library of law-firm commentary, with a premium PRO tier for monitoring and research. It is built to give you more to read. Cresthaven Analytics is built to give you a decision: what changed at your regulators, whether it is material, and what to watch, in executive-grade briefs from $299 a month.
When Lexology is the right choice
If your work is legal research and you want the broadest possible view of how leading law firms are thinking about an issue, Lexology is excellent at that. Its free platform aggregates client alerts and briefings from firms worldwide, and Lexology PRO adds comparative guides, AI-assisted research, and regulatory monitoring across many sources. For an in-house legal team doing cross-border first-look research, that breadth is real value.
When Cresthaven Analytics is the right choice
You do not have time to read fifty law-firm articles to find the one development that affects you. You need the development itself, already analyzed. Cresthaven Analytics monitors primary institutional sources across 146 agencies in the United States, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, classifies each material change with our pipeline, and delivers it as a structured six-section brief (Headline, Summary, Risk Profile, Signals, Delta, Outlook) with a direct link to the primary record. Every brief passes Sentinel, our 11-layer quality assurance backbone.
Professional and Executive tiers add cross-agency pattern detection and a searchable archive of every brief since you subscribed. The interpretation is done before it reaches you, not left for your team to do.

Common questions
Is Cresthaven Analytics a Lexology replacement?
They solve different problems. Lexology gives you a library of law-firm commentary to research. Cresthaven Analytics gives you the regulatory change itself, prioritized by impact, in a brief you can act on. Teams that want a decision rather than a reading list use Cresthaven Analytics.
Does Cresthaven Analytics publish law-firm articles?
No. We monitor the primary record at the agencies you select and write the analysis ourselves, with the source linked in every brief. There is no firm-marketing layer between you and what changed.
Do you cover my agencies?
146 agencies across 7 sectors: financial and capital markets, trade and geopolitical risk, healthcare and life sciences, technology and competition, energy and commodities, defense and government contracting, and financial crime and AML, across three regions.
