Legora raised $550 million in a Series E funding round to support the expansion of its agentic operating system for legal professionals, Legora aOS, the company said in a Wednesday (Oct. 21) blog post.
The round valued Legora at $8.8 billion, according to the post. That figure is up from the $5.6 billion valuation the company achieved about seven months ago, in a March Series D round in which it raised $550 million.
Legora will use the new funding to continue its expansion in North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region and deepen its investment in Legora aOS to bring new products such as agentic in-take, horizon scanning and legal research, the post said.
The company was founded in 2023 and launched its platform in October 2024. Today, its platform is used by 140,000 legal professionals at 2,400 law firms and in-house legal teams across 80 markets, per the post.

Legora’s annual recurring revenue has reached $200 million. The company reached that figure after going from $1 million to $100 million in ARR in less than 18 months and then adding another $100 million in ARR in less than six months, according to the post.
“The opportunity in legal is enormous and we are still early,” Legora CEO and Co-Founder Max Junestrand said in the release. “AI is changing the role of the lawyer, with more time for judgment and advice, and it is reshaping how law firms and in-house legal teams are organized and how their work gets done. We intend to lead that shift in the U.S. and globally.”
Legora’s Series E was led by Atreides Management.
Gavin Baker, managing partner and chief information officer at Atreides, said in the release that the bar for software in the legal market is high.
“Legora has become the platform that law firms and in-house legal teams adopt and then expand across their organizations, and it has done so while growing at remarkable speed,” Baker said. “Legora has also built a sustainable business along the way, with the discipline to scale fast and stay efficient.”
The PYMNTS Intelligence report “The Confluence of Law and AI: An Inevitability Waiting to Happen“ found in November 2023 that 80% of lawyers believed generative AI would offer “transformational efficiencies.”
PYMNTS reported in August that AI agents are now reviewing contracts, monitoring regulatory changes and handling first-pass discovery in production environments at major law firms and corporate legal departments.
