TL;DR
Legora is an AI-powered workspace for legal professionals that offers a web application (chat, tabular review for parallel document queries, agentic memo writing) and a Microsoft Word add-in for drafting and redlining against playbooks.
Key insights
- The line between software and service is blurring in legal tech; Legora positions as a strategic partner, not just a tool vendor.
- Early ML models (BERT) were “horrendously bad” at legal language; GPT‑3.5 was the inflection point that made unstructured legal text tractable.
- Legora’s first product was a stock‑option reader built by founders with no legal background.
