Evaluation criteria
Profile notes
What to confirm before you sign
Medata publishes 4 of the 8 fields in the Content Hub rubric. Across the 23 Mass Tort / Settlement / Lien vendors profiled here, the median is 4 of 8. Of the four it leaves unpublished, these two matter most.
- How do you charge — per page, per file, per hour, or per seat?Get the unit before you scope a pilot. A per-hour or per-seat quote and a per-page quote behave very differently once a file runs past 1,000 pages.
- What does a real 1,000-page file cost, all in?Ask for a worked example rather than a rate card. Duplicate pages, rush fees and monthly minimums are where the quoted rate and the final invoice separate.
The other seven questions, and what all 270 profiled vendors do and do not publish, are in the evaluation guide.
