I want to take a moment to recognize a gravity-defying achievement by the entire @WeAreLegora team. We have grown from $1M to $100M in annual recurring revenue in just under 18 months. In this time, we've grown into a truly global company with over 400 colleagues - and built the platform where legal work happens. Powering more than 1,000 teams worldwide. It is all about the people, and I couldn’t be prouder of the Legora team and thankful to our customers and partners. This achievement is as much yours as it is ours.

NVentures – @nvidia's venture arm – and @Atlassian are joining our Series D extension alongside a group of new investors, bringing the total round to USD 600M. These are companies building the compute and collaboration infrastructure that agentic AI runs on. They backed us because they see what we see: that legal is one of the most complex, high-stakes knowledge work domains in the world, and building agents that can actually operate inside it, with firm data, jurisdictional knowledge, real oversight, is genuinely hard and requires deep understanding of the domain. They believe @WeAreLegora is the team to solve it. We're grateful for their support and trust! legora.com/newsroom/legor…

@ycombinator is in Stockholm today. That feels like a full circle moment for me. When we went through the Winter '24 batch, people thought we were delusional – starting a legal tech company in Stockholm with this level of ambition. Today, @paulg and @jesslivingston visited our Stockholm office for a town hall with the team. Watching the founders of YC stand in the same room where we've been building something we once only talked about – I don't have a better word for it than surreal. But Stockholm is not an accident. The technical talent is world-class, the ambition is real, and the ecosystem punches way above its weight. If you're a founder building here right now, lean into it.

Just went to visit Legora. Most impressive startup I've been to visit in years. They're going to surpass Harvey in 2027. After that their only potential rivals will be the model companies. And if ever there was a territory you could defend against the model companies, law is it.

I am thrilled to share that @WeAreLegora has acquired Qura. Legora is the operating system for legal work, and legal research is a core pillar of our platform. When others have chased the next shiny object, the team at Qura has obsessed over legal data structures, hierarchies, and completeness of coverage. This is clear in the undeniable customer love, the accuracy and the scalability of their approach. The Qura team is already busy shipping the next big thing at Legora and will be focused on scaling our legal research product globally. We can’t wait to show you what’s next.

We started @WeAreLegora to change how the world's best lawyers work. Somehow, that also led to making this with Jude Law.

The future of law is collaborative. We've thought so for a while. Took us a bit longer to convince Jude Law.

@WeAreLegora is expanding across North America – and we're hiring! I'm in San Francisco with @davidneckstein to announce that we're opening offices here and in Toronto, our first foothold in Canada, and scaling New York into a central engineering hub. This builds on what we've already built in New York, Denver, Houston, and Chicago. 300+ people across the region by end of 2026. If you want to build something that actually changes how lawyers work, we'd love to talk. Full story: legora.com/newsroom/legor… Open roles: legora.com/careers

Law just got more attractive. Jude Law as the face of @WeAreLegora in our new brand campaign. Yes. Seriously. The name is almost too good. But the reason we did this isn't the wordplay. We believe this is the most exciting time in history to be a lawyer. Never before have this many brilliant people been working on tools designed to improve and delight lawyers' lives. This campaign is us saying so. With a little more flair than the usual go-to-market. legora.com/law-just-got-m…

Legal AI is past the promise stage. The data is here. We partnered with @AriKaplan to find out what AI is actually delivering for law firms. In-depth interviews. 31 firms. 14 countries. 100% of participants reported increased capacity. 42% said it helped them win new work. 65% said hours of work now takes minutes instead. Our customers have felt it. Now the data confirms it. legora.com/roi-law-firms

Legal education is about to change. Today, we’re launching the Legal AI Scholars Program in collaboration with leading law schools. AI is becoming a core part of how legal work gets done. Graduates need to understand how to use it effectively, responsibly, and in real workflows. Together with faculty, we’re developing a curriculum focused on applying AI to legal tasks, understanding its strengths and limitations, and developing the judgment required to use it well. The program is already rolling out across select schools, with more to follow in key jurisdictions over the coming months. I can't wait to help shape a generation of lawyers better equipped to navigate how the profession is changing together with all of our great partners. Full story: legora.com/newsroom/legor…

A caddie rarely makes the headlines. Yet behind every shot is someone who has read the wind, measured the distance, and asked the question: Is this really the right play? @WeAreLegora is to lawyers what caddies are to golfers. Full story: legora.com/newsroom/legor…

Building in AI means throwing away work you're proud of when the models improve. That changes how we build things. Your platform can’t be anchored, it has to be built with low ego and move with the tide. Listen to the chat with @chetanp and @jaltma youtube.com/watch?v=DdHl7d…

Today, we announced our acquisition of Walter AI. They’ve built agent-native systems alongside lawyers that handle real workflows. We share the same blueprint for the future - and I'm excited to welcome the Walter team to @WeAreLegora! legora.com/newsroom/legor…
