Legora's product strategy was to bundle three features—an AI assistant, Tabular Review, and a Word add-in—to compete against single-feature competitors.

Legora has surpassed and churned many clients from a competitor that previously had 50 times its revenue.
Legora has surpassed $100 million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR).
Legora's headcount grew from 40 people to nearly 500 over the last year.
Legora is shifting its product strategy from augmenting individual tasks to building proactive AI agents that can handle entire workflows.
