Orbital, an artificial intelligence platform focused on real estate law, has closed a $60 million Series B funding round to accelerate expansion in the United States and the United Kingdom and deepen product development. The round was led by Brighton Park Capital, with participation from RELX through its venture arm, alongside The LegalTech Fund, Moderne Ventures, and existing customer Grosvenor Group.
Founded in 2018, Orbital was built to address persistent inefficiencies in real estate legal work, an area still dominated by manual, fragmented processes despite the sector’s scale. Under the leadership of Will Pearce, the company developed an AI platform that combines document automation with mapping, spatial visualisation, and property data to streamline complex, document-heavy transactions. Originally grounded in geospatial and satellite data, Orbital transitioned to a generative AI architecture in 2023, leveraging years of domain expertise to deploy one of the early LegalAI agents for property law.
The new funding will support aggressive growth, including doubling headcount, expanding U.S. operations following the launch of a New York office, and advancing Orbital’s goal of creating a unified digital workspace for real estate legal work across the full asset lifecycle.
