Legora, legally Legora AB and previously known as Leya, was founded in Stockholm in 2023 and has rapidly become a hub for legal experts and developers building the next generation of legal work platforms. Powered by generative AI, Legora assists lawyers with tasks ranging from contract review to drafting and deep research - all while maintaining strong focus on UX and design.

Since rebranding in February 2025, Legora has expanded quickly with an office in New York and customers among top global law firms like Cleary Gottlieb, Bird & Bird and Mannheimer Swartling. In May 2025 they closed an impressive Series B round of $80M led by ICONIQ and General Catalyst with participation from Benchmark, Redpoint and YC - valuing the company at around $675M.

As a workplace, Legora is an AI‑friendly startup dream: a tight team of roughly 100 people moving fast and working closely with customers. Innovations like tabular review, Word integration and agents that scan large document bundles reflect their ambition: to challenge incumbent legal‑tech players with Scandinavian quality and efficient tooling.
