Legora is an AI-powered legal workspace designed to support lawyers with document review, drafting, research, and collaboration. It is used to streamline tasks such as contract analysis, due diligence, legal research, and precedent-based drafting—integrating seamlessly into tools like Microsoft Word and document management systems. Firms use Legora to apply internal playbooks, automate workflows, and accelerate legal processes without compromising accuracy or oversight.
Features of Legora include:
Tabular Review
Legora transforms large folders of contracts, agreements, or case materials into an organized, interactive grid where each document becomes a row and AI-generated prompts correspond to columns. This enables extraction of key data, clause comparison, and identification of inconsistencies at scale—whether analyzing hundreds or thousands of documents. Firms use this feature for due diligence, compliance, and mass review projects.
Assistant
This conversational AI “assistant” allows lawyers to interact with internal and external documents across any language, asking questions and receiving responses that include source citations. Users can also manage and reuse expert-crafted prompts that guide the assistant’s outputs.
Word Add‑in
Legora integrates directly into Microsoft Word, enabling in‑document capabilities such as drafting from precedents, real‑time commenting, and redlining. It can apply playbooks or templates, suggest markup, and leverage your firm’s prompt library and document repository—all within the drafting environment.
Research
The Research function combines agentic reasoning with traditional search methods across internal document management systems (e.g., iManage, SharePoint), legal databases, and web sources. It can verify citations, surface relevant precedent, and summarize complex legal issues in one unified interface. Recent updates include integration with EDGAR for enhanced SEC-related research.
Playbooks
Legora lets firms codify internal standards—like clause checklists, negotiation guidelines, or redlining preferences—into playbooks that can be automatically or manually applied during drafting or review. While detailed documentation on their website is limited, their availability within the Word Add-in suggests deep integration into the drafting workflow .
Workflows
Workflows provide a multi-step, agentic AI framework that automates complex legal processes. Built in natural language, these workflows can incorporate drafting, tabular reviews, research, translation, and database queries. They are customizable to reflect a firm’s unique templates, libraries, and decision-making logic. Pre-built examples include due diligence sequences, compliance checks, timeline creation, and risk-factor drafting for SEC filings.
Legora was formerly known as Leya.
