by Legora (formerly Leya)
Collaborative legal AI for document review, research, and drafting
Last reviewed 2026-06-19
Legora is a European legal AI platform for lawyers and legal teams. It positions itself as "collaborative AI" and markets an agentic operating system combining large-scale document review, legal research, drafting, and workflow automation. Core surfaces include Tabular Review (a grid for analyzing many documents in parallel with prompts and tagging), connected legal research that synthesizes across internal document management and external sources with citations, a Microsoft Word and Outlook add-in for drafting and redlining, regulatory monitors, and a client-facing portal. Founded in Stockholm in 2023 and formerly named Leya, the company rebranded to Legora in February 2025. It serves M&A, litigation, banking, tax, and insurance work, used by large law firms and in-house teams. As of its March 2026 Series D it reported 800+ customers across 50+ markets, with named clients including White & Case, Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, and Dentons. Its primary buyers are large and enterprise law firms and in-house legal teams, especially for high-volume and cross-border work.

Strengths
- +Strong high-volume document analysis (Tabular Review) for due diligence with parallel prompting and tagging
- +Enterprise-grade compliance (ISO 42001, ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type 2, GDPR, BYOK) and no training on customer data
- +Deep fit for international and European multi-jurisdictional work plus native Word and Outlook workflow
Limitations
- −No public pricing and no self-serve trial; a demo and sales call are required
- −Built primarily around large-law-firm workflows, reportedly less suited to broad in-house needs
- −Citation granularity is source-level rather than character-level, which some teams find insufficient for high-stakes work
Overview
Legora is a European legal AI platform, formerly named Leya, founded in Stockholm in 2023 and rebranded in February 2025. It markets "collaborative AI" and an agentic operating system for document review, legal research, drafting, and workflow automation, used by large law firms and in-house teams.
What it does
Tabular Review analyzes many documents in parallel with prompts and tagging for due diligence. Connected research synthesizes across internal document management, legal databases, and the web with citations. A Word and Outlook add-in handles drafting and redlining, and regulatory monitors track legal changes. It is marketed as agentic, with a lawyer reviewing output.
Integrations & setup
It integrates with Microsoft Word, Outlook, and SharePoint, plus legal document management systems iManage and NetDocuments, and supports bring-your-own-key. Per a Microsoft case study it runs on Azure OpenAI (naming GPT-4o and o1) in a multi-model, RAG-based architecture and states it does not train on customer data.
Pricing
Enterprise, contact-sales, with no public pricing or self-serve trial. Third-party estimates cite roughly $3,000/user/year with a seat minimum; these are secondary and not official.
Best for / not for
Best for large and enterprise law firms doing high-volume M&A, litigation, and cross-border work who want native Word workflow and strong compliance. Less suited to small teams or those wanting transparent self-serve pricing.
Traction
Legora raised a reported $550M Series D in March 2026 at a reported $5.55B valuation (led by Accel), after rapid prior rounds. Confirmed investors include Accel, Bessemer, ICONIQ, General Catalyst, Benchmark, and Redpoint. Trade press has questioned whether valuations are outrunning revenue.
Alternatives
Harvey is the most-cited legal AI competitor; Spellbook focuses on contract drafting and Robin AI on contract review.

FAQ
Was Legora formerly called Leya?+
Yes. The company launched as Leya in 2023 and rebranded to Legora in February 2025; all prior Leya coverage refers to the same company.
How autonomous is Legora?+
It is marketed as agentic and can run multi-step legal tasks and large parallel document reviews, but enterprise legal use keeps a lawyer in the loop reviewing output, so it operates as a supervised agent.
