HeyCounsel vs HAQQ
HeyCounsel gives you skills. HAQQ gives you the system the skills run inside.
TL;DR
HeyCounsel is a community registry of legal prompts and skills you bolt onto a general AI. Useful, free, fast to try. But a skill is a recipe, not a kitchen. HAQQ is the kitchen: every drafting or review skill runs inside a real matter, gets billed, leaves an audit trail, and respects the jurisdiction you set. Use HeyCounsel skills to extend HAQQ. Don't mistake a library for a practice.
A skill is not a workflow
HeyCounsel hands you instructions for a model. There's no matter, no client file, no history. Run the same skill tomorrow and the AI has forgotten everything. HAQQ keeps a persistent, firm-level knowledge base so context survives across sessions and lawyers.
No audit trail, no billing
When you run a HeyCounsel skill, nothing is logged to a matter or a clock. HAQQ ties every AI action to a billable matter with a defensible audit trail, so the work is invoiceable and survives bar review.
Jurisdiction is enforced, not suggested
A library skill trusts you to pick the right law. HAQQ enforces the jurisdiction at the matter level, runs in Arabic and English across MENA and emerging markets, and offers an on-premise option a registry can't.

HeyCounselHAQQFrequently Asked Questions
Is HeyCounsel free?
Yes, community skill registries are typically free and open-source. So are HAQQ's free tools. The difference is HAQQ is also a full platform when you need matters, billing, and audit trails.
Can I use HeyCounsel skills inside HAQQ?
That's the point. HAQQ is the system skills run inside. Bring community skills in and they pick up matters, billing, and jurisdiction enforcement they never had on their own.

No. It's a skill library, not a practice OS. There's no billing, no matter management, no persistent firm knowledge base. HAQQ does all three.
