The key dimensions
LegalZoom is a platform. BizDraft is a drafting tool. They serve different needs — sometimes in sequence.
BizDraft: Free. Always. No account.
LegalZoom: Services range widely. Business formation starts around $0 + state fees. Legal plans (attorney access, document reviews) start at $7.99/month and up. Individual documents are priced per document.
BizDraft: AI-powered agreement drafting. Describe your deal; get a tailored contract. One thing, done well.
LegalZoom: Business formation (LLC, corporation), registered agent service, trademark filing, estate planning, attorney network, legal plans. A broad legal platform, not a drafting specialist.
BizDraft: AI-tailored to your specific deal — parties, scope, state, payment structure. Not a template.
LegalZoom: Template-based with attorney review available as an add-on. Templates are comprehensive but standardized; customization requires attorney involvement (additional cost).
When to use which
LegalZoom and BizDraft often serve different phases of the same business journey.

If you need a contract for a project starting next week, BizDraft is the right answer. If you need to form an LLC or file a trademark, LegalZoom is the right answer.
