SallyIP vs general legal AI (2026)

General legal AI covers every practice area thinly. SallyIP covers intellectual property narrowly, with verification mechanics and published miss rates. Different jobs — here is how to choose.

Dimension	General legal AI	SallyIP
IP specialization	Broad legal coverage, thin patent/trademark workflows	IP-only: 12+ specialist workspaces (prior art, FTO, OA response, claim charts, clearance)
Source verification	Citations with undisclosed method	Exact-quote verification + dangling-label removal, measured (72.5% exact 87/120, grounding-100, 2026-09-09)
Matter context	Per-conversation	Matter-scoped sources, IP graph, playbooks, audit trails
Benchmark transparency	Generally unpublished	Open runners, frozen datasets, blocked releases published (benchmarks)
When evidence is missing	Usually answers anyway	Qualifies or refuses (RESEARCH REQUIRED); abstention measured (e.g. 6/12 adversarial items)

Plain advice: if you need all-practice coverage inside one enterprise seat, buy general legal AI. If you do IP work and want every material conclusion traceable to evidence with the receipts published, try SallyIP. Peer-reviewed context: general LLMs 58–88% hallucination on legal queries (Dahl et al. 2024); purpose-built RAG tools 17–33% (Magesh et al. 2024–2025).

No superlatives claimed. No competitor hallucination rate asserted without peer-reviewed source. Last updated September 2026.
