The short version
- Each has a real cost: Logikcull built for self-service, so very large or complex matters still favour the enterprise platforms; Relativity quote-only and expensive, typically billed on data volume, so costs escalate with matter size
- They diverge on capability: Logikcull covers Automated processing, Relativity covers Large-scale processing.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Logikcull
- Built for self-service, so very large or complex matters still favour the enterprise platforms
- Analytics and predictive coding are lighter than Relativity or Everlaw
- Acquired by Reveal, and roadmap direction under new ownership is a fair question for a buyer
- Per-matter pricing is predictable but not always cheaper on small collections
Relativity
- Quote-only and expensive, typically billed on data volume, so costs escalate with matter size
- Complex enough that certified specialists are a job title, which is a real staffing cost
- Considerable overkill for small matters, where lighter self-service tools are far cheaper

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Logikcull: What does Logikcull cost?
It publishes per-matter and subscription pricing, which is unusual in ediscovery and is much of its appeal.
Relativity: What does Relativity cost?
It does not publish rates. Ediscovery is generally billed on data volume and users, quoted per matter or organisation.
Logikcull: Do I need a specialist to run it?
No. Processing is automated and review runs in the browser, which is the difference from platforms where certification is a job title.
Relativity: Is Relativity only for law firms?
No. Corporate legal departments and government agencies use it for investigations as well as litigation.
Logikcull: When is it not the right tool?
Very large or analytically complex matters, where Relativity and Everlaw have deeper review and predictive coding.
Relativity: Do I need trained staff?
In practice yes. Relativity certification is a recognised specialism, and that staffing cost is part of the total.
