Legora
by Legora (formerly Leya)
The agentic workspace where lawyers and AI do the work together
Legora is an AI workspace for legal work that combines agentic research, tabular document review, drafting and client delivery in one platform for law firms and in-house teams. It plugs into Word, Outlook and document management systems so the work stays where lawyers already are, and it replaces the scatter of point tools most legal departments have accumulated for review, research and regulatory monitoring.
Legora is an agentic workspace for legal work, sold to law firms and in-house legal teams as a single surface for research, review, drafting and client delivery. It was founded in Stockholm in 2023 as Leya by Max Junestrand, Sigge Labor and August Erseus, went through Y Combinator's Winter 2024 batch, and rebranded to Legora in February 2025. The platform is organised around modules rather than a single chat box. Tabular Review runs a column of questions across a document set and returns a citation-linked answer grid; Legal Research performs agentic research across jurisdictions; Monitors continuously scan global regulations and surface changes relevant to a matter; Agent plans and executes multi-step tasks end to end; Portal packages output for client delivery; and Lists connects AI output back into workflow. Word and Outlook add-ins plus document-management integrations keep the work inside the tools lawyers already use, and the platform is built primarily on Anthropic's Claude models. The vendor reports roughly 800 law firms and legal teams across more than 50 markets, with named customers including Cleary Gottlieb, White & Case, Linklaters, Bird & Bird, Goodwin, Dentons and Deloitte, and reported $100M ARR as of April 2026. In March 2026 it raised a $550M Series D led by Accel at a $5.55B valuation, having grown from 40 to roughly 400 staff in a year across Stockholm, London, New York, Denver, Sydney and Bengaluru. Its closest competitor is Harvey, with Thomson Reuters CoCounsel anchoring the incumbent side of the market.
Innovation or knowledge-management leads at mid-to-large law firms who need one AI surface for review, research and drafting rather than a per-practice patchwork of point tools.
Document review and cross-jurisdiction research that used to take associate-days returns as a citation-linked answer grid inside Word and the firm's existing DMS.

Key Features
- ✓Tabular Review
Runs a set of questions as columns across an entire document set and returns a citation-linked grid, so diligence review is read as a table instead of document by document.
- ✓Agentic Legal Research
Plans and executes multi-step research across jurisdictions and public sources, returning answers tied back to the underlying authority rather than an unsourced summary.
- ✓Monitors
Continuously scans global regulatory sources and surfaces only the changes relevant to a firm's matters, replacing manual horizon-scanning by knowledge teams.
- ✓Agent
Takes a complex legal task end to end — planning, execution, review and delivery — so a workflow spans multiple steps without a human re-prompting at each stage.
- ✓Word and Outlook add-ins
Puts drafting, markup and research inside the applications lawyers already work in, which is what determines whether legal AI actually gets used daily.
- ✓Client Portal
Packages matter output into a client-facing delivery surface, turning internal AI work product into something a firm can hand over directly.
Capabilities
Use Cases
- •M&A due diligence at scale
A deal team runs a standard diligence question set across thousands of data-room documents and gets a reviewable grid with citations instead of a manual first pass.
- •Cross-border regulatory research
A banking practice researches a question across several jurisdictions in one pass and receives answers linked to the governing authority in each market.
- •Contract drafting from firm precedent
An associate drafts and marks up an agreement inside Word with the firm's own precedent library supplying context, cutting first-draft turnaround.
- •Ongoing compliance monitoring
An in-house team subscribes Monitors to the regulations touching a live matter and is alerted when a rule changes rather than discovering it at review time.
- •Client deliverable packaging
A firm publishes matter output through Portal so the client sees structured, cited work product instead of a chain of email attachments.
Ideal For
Best For
- ✓Due-diligence document review across large M&A data rooms using tabular question grids
- ✓Cross-jurisdiction legal research where an answer must cite the underlying authority
- ✓Continuous regulatory monitoring so a compliance team is told when a rule relevant to a live matter changes
- ✓First-draft generation and markup of contracts inside Word with firm precedent as context
- ✓Client-facing delivery of matter output through a branded portal rather than email attachments
Not Ideal For
- ✗Small in-house legal departments — third-party buyer guides report a 10-seat minimum, putting the entry contract near $30,000/year before a five-person team has evaluated anything
- ✗Teams that want to trial before talking to sales; there is no public self-serve signup, price list or free tier
- ✗In-house contract operations whose work is high-volume NDA and vendor-agreement turnaround — the deepest features (tabular review, firm prompt library, client Portal) are built around law-firm workflows
- ✗Organisations that need an on-premise deployment; Legora is a hosted cloud platform

Market & Ratings

Market Analysis
Pros
- ✓Named adoption at top-tier international firms — Cleary Gottlieb, White & Case, Linklaters, Bird & Bird — which is the strongest available signal in a market full of pilots
- ✓Lives inside Word, Outlook and the firm's document management system, so it does not depend on lawyers changing where they work
- ✓Strong compliance posture for a four-year-old company: ISO 27001, ISO 42001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and HIPAA, with a stated no-training-on-customer-data policy
- ✓Substantially lower entry cost than Harvey at comparable capability, per third-party pricing analyses
Cons
- ✗No published pricing and no self-serve trial — evaluation requires a sales cycle, which independent reviewers call the deal-breaker before the product is even assessed
- ✗Reported 10-seat minimum prices out small in-house teams entirely, and the deepest features are firm-shaped rather than in-house-shaped
- ✗Practitioner sentiment on Hacker News is mixed, with at least one report of a user who 'can't stand' it over workflow friction, and open questions about how durable the moat is once foundation-model vendors ship zero-retention enterprise tiers
- ✗Open-source clones of the headline Tabular Review feature have already appeared on Show HN, which is early evidence of price pressure on the marquee capability
- ✗Valuation has moved from $1.8B (Oct 2025) to $5.55B (Mar 2026) with talks reported at $10B+ — buyers should expect renewal pricing to follow that curve

Contact for pricing
- ✓Full platform: Agent, Tabular Review, Legal Research, Monitors, Portal, Lists
- ✓Word and Outlook add-ins
- ✓Document management system integrations
- ✓Reported ~10-seat minimum per third-party buyer guides
Legora publishes no list price and sells through a demo-gated sales cycle. Third-party 2026 buyer guides report roughly $3,000 per seat per year with a 10-seat minimum, so the smallest realistic contract lands near $30,000 annually, rising to a reported $5,000-$8,000 per seat at enterprise scale. The same guides say firms routinely negotiate 40-60% off the opening number and that year-one implementation, training and premium support add 30-50% on top of the licence. Treat all of these as sourced third-party estimates, not vendor-published rates.
