Legora

Legora

A fast-moving assistant with strong tabular review and Word-native drafting; popular with transactional teams that want output they can edit, not just read.

Our verdict

Tier B — conditional, and one of the better-balanced products here. The editing-first design means a human is structurally in the loop, which is exactly what a firm needs to evidence. Confirm the hosting region and retention defaults in your own order form rather than the marketing page.

What it does

Document review in tables, drafting and redrafting in Word, and matter Q&A over a document set.

Where it holds up

  • Tabular review with citations back to the source document
  • Word integration means the review step is natural, not bolted on
  • Fast iteration — the product changes visibly between quarters

Where it doesn't

  • Young vendor relative to the incumbents
  • Enterprise assurances are newer and less battle-tested
  • Pricing scales quickly with seats

Data posture, as documented

What the vendor's own material and terms say — and where the answer was not published, we say so rather than guess.

locationEU/US options; confirm region in writing
trainingContractual no-training position for customer content
retentionConfigurable; set it explicitly
subprocessorsListed publicly; check against your own risk appetite

What it costs, realistically

Per-seat subscription, annual. Implementation lighter than the big incumbents.

Who it suits

Good fit

Transactional and corporate teams that live in Word and need reviewable output.

Poor fit

Firms wanting a single tool to cover intake and AML as well.

How we assessed it

Vendor documentation and published terms review. Hands-on testing scheduled.
