Legora builds an AI platform for legal work, used by law firms and in-house legal teams. The product covers drafting, tabular document review, legal research, regulatory change monitoring, and agentic execution of multi-step legal tasks, and integrates into the tools lawyers already use through Word and Outlook add-ins. It was founded in 2023 by CEO Max Junestrand and CTO Sigge Labor, went through Y Combinator, and counts firms including Cleary Gottlieb, White & Case, Linklaters, Goodwin, Bird & Bird, Deloitte and Dentons as customers. The company reached a $5.55B valuation on a $550M Series D led by Accel, later extended with an Nvidia-led round.
What sets it apart
Rather than a standalone research chatbot, Legora positions itself as an agentic operating system for legal work that runs inside the lawyer's existing workflow -- Word, Outlook, and a client-facing portal -- and takes on complete tasks across M&A, litigation, banking, tax and insurance practice areas, with the firm's own reported figure of roughly a 30% cut in non-billable hours.
