PRESS RELEASE — Legora has announced a $50 million extension of its previously announced Series D financing, bringing the total round to $600 million in equity and valuing the company at $5.6 billion post-money.
The extension adds Atlassian and NVentures (NVIDIA’s venture capital arm) as corporate investors, alongside new financial investors, including Airtree, Barclays, Geodesic, Insight, Liberty Global and Nikesh Arora.
“As a leader in Legal AI, Legora is showing how deeply integrated, context-aware AI can transform complex workflows. We see strong alignment with Atlassian’s vision for AI-powered team collaboration and look forward to supporting their continued expansion”, said Sarah Hughes, Atlassian Head of Corporate Development and Product Partnerships.
The extended funding round follows a period of rapid growth. Legora recently surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue — placing it among the fastest-growing enterprise software companies in history.
Over the past year, Legora has scaled from 40 to 400 employees and expanded its customer base from 200 to more than 1,000 organizations across 50+ markets. It now serves tens of thousands of legal professionals at major corporate legal departments, such as Barclays, as well as leading global firms, such as White & Case, HSFK, and Linklaters.
Corporate legal departments now represent one of Legora’s fastest-growing segments, with adoption accelerating over the past year as in-house teams look to bring the same AI capabilities their outside counsel are already using. Across deployments, customers are seeing measurable impact including, among law firms surveyed, an average of 4.3 non-billable hours saved per lawyer per week and 42% reporting new work won as a direct result of using Legora.
As AI agents move from passive assistants to systems that can act on behalf of users, using tools and completing workflows, the software model is beginning to shift from SaaS (Software as a Service) toward AaaS (Agent as a Service). For legal teams, this means moving beyond isolated use cases to integrated systems that combine firm data, jurisdictional knowledge, and intelligent agents.
“Enterprise AI is now entering a new phase,” said Max Junestrand, CEO and Co-founder of Legora. “Foundation models are improving rapidly, but the real breakthrough is in how they’re applied, where AI doesn’t just assist, but executes autonomously with the right level of human oversight. With the support of our investors and customers, we’re building a full agentic operating system for legal work”.
