LegalFly, a pioneering legal AI platform, announced it has raised over €15 million in Series A funding led by Notion Capital, with participation from redalpine and Fortino Capital. The investment will fuel LegalFly’s ambitious growth plan, tripling its current team by year’s end and accelerating feature development. The funding will also support LegalFly’s continued expansion across Europe and enhance its partnerships with leading law firms and enterprises, paving the way for next-generation legal services that are both effective and secure.
LegalFly is revolutionising legal and compliance departments with a full suite of Legal AI agents designed to automate legal services and enhance productivity. As the €884 billion legal services market turns to AI to boost efficiency and cut costs, LegalFly is setting the global standard for responsible legal AI featuring unrivalled security.
Unique in its approach, LegalFly ensures that sensitive client data never leaves a company’s premises. This is achieved through on-premise anonymisation, where a fine-tuned model secures data before it ever reaches the LLMs. Coupled with an LLM-agnostic platform that selects the best foundational models for each legal scenario, LegalFly increases both product efficacy and security.
“LegalFly is redefining how legal services are delivered, ensuring they are more accessible within a corporate environment while upholding the highest standards of security and efficiency,” stated Ruben Miessen, CEO of LegalFly. “This investment enables us to scale our operations and innovate further, driving forward the digital transformation in legal services that our clients require globally.”
This investment comes just eight months after the company’s €2 million seed round led by redalpine, which saw early participation from industry leaders including Mehdi Ghissassi, Director of Product at Google Deepmind.
LegalFly was founded in 2023 by a team of former product experts from Tinder — Ruben Miessen, Kasper Verbeeck, Dennis Montégnies and Gregory Vekemans — with a vision to democratise legal services for enterprises. The company has swiftly built momentum in the market with its advanced and intuitive legal AI solutions tailored for law firms and in-house teams, particularly within the finance and insurance sectors. As of today, LegalFly counts dozens of leading European law firms and enterprises as customers and has forged strategic partnerships with industry giants such as Slaughter & May and Allianz.
“The legal industry is a perfect fit for AI. We have been looking at making an investment in the market for sometime and in LegalFly we are very confident that they will be one of the enduring success stories,” said Jos White, General Partner at Notion Capital. “The super talented team have a clear vision for the future and have already built a market leading product. The true test of this is the way it’s being received in the market which has been nothing short of amazing after only a year.”
“LegalFly’s rapid ascent showcases their exceptional vision and execution, solidifying their product leadership in the Legal AI space. Their unique focus on enterprise-grade security and an LLM-agnostic platform not only meets a critical industry need but also drives their continuous expansion and innovation. Transforming legal services with secure, AI-driven solutions, we are proud to have led their seed round and to witness their robust and sustained growth,” added Sebastian Becker, General Partner at redalpine.
