# Legora: reviews and analysis > Agentic operating system for European firms: research, drafting and contract review in Word and Outlook. - Canonical: https://serchai.com/en/reviews/legora/ - Site: Serchai (https://serchai.com) — AI tools comparator - Language: en - Updated: 2026-07-27 --- ## Verdict Legora (formerly Leya) is Harvey's direct European competitor: an agentic system for firms covering legal research, drafting, batch contract review in a table view and client collaboration from its own portal, integrated into Word and Outlook. Large firms such as Crowell & Moring or Cleary Gottlieb have rolled it out firm-wide, with internal adoption figures the company itself makes public. Here too there is no published rate: access is by sales demo, built for firms of twenty lawyers upward, not for the solo practitioner. **Best for:** European firms of twenty lawyers upward looking for a Harvey alternative with firm-wide rollout. **Rating:** 3.5/5 ## Pros - Real firm-wide adoption at large firms, with published usage figures - Covers research, drafting and contract review in one system - Active product pace: acquired Qura for legal research in 2026 ## Cons - Publishes no rates: everything goes through a sales demo - No verifiable independent reviews on platforms like G2 due to low volume ## Key facts - Price: Price on request: no public rate card, sold via demo - Free trial: No - Platforms: Web - Categories: [Productivity](https://serchai.com/en/best-ai/productivity/), [Writing & reading](https://serchai.com/en/best-ai/writing/) - Official website: https://legora.com ## What the internet says (agentic sweep) The week brings a success story of its own (Crowell & Moring, six months of firm-wide rollout) and a press piece questioning whether firms should adopt off-the-shelf tools like Legora or Harvey instead of building on base models. The web agrees adoption at large firms is real, and also that there is no public price anywhere. - Sweep date: 2026-07-27 - Derived score: 3.5/5 ### Axes - Results: 4/5 - Control: 3.5/5 - Real price: 2/5 - Integration: 4/5 - Support: 4/5 ### Recurring themes in favor - Crowell & Moring reports that 91% of its more than seven hundred lawyers use Legora after six months of firm-wide rollout (strong theme) - Covers research, drafting and table-view contract review in one system, integrated into Word and Outlook (strong theme) ### Recurring themes against - No published rate anywhere: the pricing page errors out and the only access is a sales demo (strong theme) - A July 2026 Law.com piece notes some firms, such as Quinn Emanuel, prefer building on base models rather than adopting off-the-shelf tools like Legora or Harvey (present theme) ### Sweep sources - [Official pricing] https://legora.com/pricing — Comprobado el 2026-07-27: la ruta devuelve error 404.

Large firms such as Crowell & Moring have rolled it out firm-wide, with 91% of their lawyers using it after six months. Here too there is no published rate: access is by sales demo. ## What Legora is and how it works Legora describes itself as an "agentic operating system" for legal professionals, technically based in Sweden and actively expanding into the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and dozens of other markets. It covers several practice areas (M&A, litigation, banking, tax, insurance) and organises around a handful of core capabilities: cross-jurisdiction legal research, drafting and reviewing documents, "tabular review" for analysing batches of contracts in a table view, workflow automation, regulatory monitoring and a portal for collaborating with clients. In 2026 it acquired Qura, an AI-native legal research platform, a move that reinforces exactly the product's research piece. It integrates natively into Word and Outlook, putting it inside a firm's usual workflow rather than beside it. ## What using it is like day to day The most-cited case of real adoption is Crowell & Moring, which in July 2026 made public that, after six months of firm-wide rollout, 82% of the firm and 91% of its more than seven hundred lawyers were actively using Legora, with more than two million interactions accumulated. These are figures the firm itself published, not a Legora press release, which gives them different weight. Not all of the week's conversation is equally favourable. A July 2026 Law.com analysis notes that some firms, such as Quinn Emanuel, prefer building their own tools on base models rather than adopting off-the-shelf products like Legora or Harvey. It is a legitimate sector debate, not a critique of the product itself, but worth knowing before signing a firm-wide contract. ## Pricing and plans Legora publishes no rate at all. The `/pricing` page on its site returns an error, and there is no amount, tier or per-user price visible anywhere on the site. Access is exclusively through a sales demo. There is no estimated figure in this analysis because any number circulating outside the official site is not confirmed by the company. What is known from its client profile is that the sales model targets firms of twenty lawyers upward, not the solo practitioner looking for a one-off tool. ## Who it is for (and who it is not for) It fits mid-size and large European firms looking for a Harvey alternative with firm-wide rollout and direct integration into Word and Outlook. The Crowell & Moring case shows internal adoption can get close to total when the rollout is taken seriously. It does not fit a small firm wanting to decide without going through a sales process, nor anyone looking for a tool specifically focused on Spanish law: its document base and client base have general European reach, not a Spanish one. ## Alternatives to Legora [Harvey](https://serchai.com/en/reviews/harvey/) is its most direct rival and shares the same demo-led sales model, but with more presence at US firms. [Paxton AI](https://serchai.com/en/reviews/paxton-ai/) does publish its rates and is directly assessable, though its legal base centres on the United States. ## Verdict Legora has achieved in a short time what few legaltech tools manage: getting a large firm to publicly state that nearly all its lawyers genuinely use it, not just that it bought it. That is the proof that matters most in this sector, above any valuation figure. What keeps us from recommending it without reservation is the usual thing in this category: you cannot find out what it costs without sitting down with a salesperson, and the debate over whether to build in-house rather than buy off the shelf is still open in the sector itself. ## Alternatives - [Harvey](https://serchai.com/en/reviews/harvey/) — The reference AI assistant in big law firms: research, contracts and legal workflows end to end.
