What Pacermonitor does
The PacerMonitor dashboard collects every case a user follows in one place, regardless of jurisdiction, and, depending on the plan, updates them automatically. Customised daily email alerts send docket changes and new case filings to the inbox. Search covers federal court cases from one place free of charge, with keyword search across docket text entries; coverage includes district civil cases and Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases. PacerMonitor is built for teams: once one member downloads a docket refresh or filing, it is available to the rest of the team without paying again, and PDFs can be emailed directly. Mobile tools show new filings and tracked cases on the go. The API returns data from more than 200 federal courts in JSON, CSV or XLS, with a Python SDK for millions of dockets, data points and OCR court PDFs. PacerMonitor was founded in 2011 by corporate restructuring professionals and is based in New York. Plans: Plus at USD 49 a month for individuals (documents 15 cents a page, 5 custom alerts), Professional at USD 99 a month (documents 10 cents a page, 20 alerts, advanced search, pass-through PACER billing) and Enterprise at USD 499 a month for 15 users (unlimited alerts, team management, firm-wide usage dashboard). The API is priced on request. A free account charges a flat USD 5 per document, and Plus and Professional have a 14-day free trial.
