Leya Secures $25M Series A Funding Led by Redpoint Ventures

Leya, a trailblazer in AI-powered legal technology, is excited to announce the successful completion of a $25 million Series A funding round. Redpoint Ventures led the round, with participation from existing investors Benchmark, Y Combinator, and Wayfinder Ventures, as well as the new addition of Alt Capital.

The company was founded with the belief that lawyers should be liberated from manual, repetitive tasks in order to focus on impactful, strategic work. Through the use of advanced AI, Leya enhances lawyers' productivity and delivers higher-quality results. This vision has propelled the company from its beginnings in a student dormitory, through initial explorations of BERT models for Swedish legal sources, to its current position as a leader in legal tech innovation.

Max, co-founder of Leya, stated, “Our journey has been driven by an unwavering commitment to improving legal productivity. From our early days at Mannheimer Swartling to our ventures in San Francisco, we have been guided by a vision of a more delightful, AI-powered way of working in legal. This funding will enable us to accelerate even further, following our previous round just two months ago.”

Leya’s platform seamlessly integrates with law firms’ documents, playbooks, templates, and external legal sources. It assists lawyers with specific tasks related to reviewing, searching, and drafting, such as filling in transaction checklists, creating key terms reports, and writing memos. By providing intelligent support, Leya enables legal professionals to handle legal work quickly and efficiently.

This new funding will expedite Leya’s product development and growth, as evidenced by its recent entry into the UK with its announcement with Bird & Bird and their collaboration with legal data provider FromCounsel. This follows several other key partnerships already established across the European continent.
