Lextree is a combined entity management and contract management platform from Berkman Solutions, a bootstrapped 2-person company founded in 2004 in Portland, OR. Targets in-house legal teams, corporate secretaries, and compliance officers managing legal entity structures, subsidiary ownership, org charts, contracts, and compliance deadlines. Pricing: $100/mo (single user) to $400/mo (unlimited users). Reports $220K revenue (2025 per Latka). At this revenue level with 2 employees, it’s a sustainable micro-SaaS but practitioners should factor in vendor risk for critical entity tracking. Confirmed government customer: Northwest Florida Water Management District ($4,188/year per board minutes). Also merged legacy ‘Contract Analyst’ product (233 LinkedIn followers). Competes against Diligent Entities (enterprise), Athennian (mid-market), and EntityKeeper in entity management; against manual Excel/SharePoint tracking for smaller teams. Capterra/GetApp: 5/5 from 5 reviews (all appear from 2016 era). G2: 3.5/5 from 1 review. Facebook: 3.7/5 from 3 reviews. One Reddit r/legaltech mention noted it ‘misses context’ for clause spotting.

What We Haven’t Verified

  • Vendor claim of “$4 billion in contracts managed globally” is unverified
  • No SOC 2 or security certification information found
  • Integration ecosystem not documented — unclear if Lextree connects to e-signature, DMS, or ERP systems
  • Reddit r/legaltech user noted Lextree “misses context” for clause spotting — single data point, not verified at scale

Workflows

Based on practitioner evidence, Berkman Solutions is used in these workflows:

What practitioners struggle with

Real frustrations from legal professionals — the problems Berkman Solutions addresses (or should address). Sourced from practitioner reviews, Reddit threads, and case studies.

Signed contracts vanish into email threads and shared drives — when a dispute arises, nobody can find the executed version

Document Review & Management 96 vendors affected In-house counsel · Legal ops · Small firm (2–10) · Mid-size firm (11–50)

Contract auto-renewed at 15% higher because nobody tracked the 60-day opt-out window buried on page 37

Filing & Compliance 76 vendors affected In-house counsel · Legal ops · Mid-size firm (11–50) · Large firm (51–200)

Post-incorporation corporate housekeeping costs $500-2,000 per task through an attorney — board consents, stock certificates, 83(b) elections, option grants are all templated documents with variable fields that shouldn't require a lawyer every time

Document Drafting & Automation 21 vendors affected In-house counsel · Small firm (2–10)
