New product alert - Legal Research! One of the biggest opportunities we hear from clients is that they shouldn't have to choose between the best data and the best technology. So we're building both into one platform. @WeAreLegora's legal research will combine comprehensive data with AI-native navigation. We're building the world's most comprehensive legal dataset, mapped into a full ontology of how the law actually relates, including an AI-native citator that tracks what's still good law. Not a database with a search bar. A system that understands the structure underneath it. We're building this for every country, not just one. Legal research has always been treated as a local problem. It isn't, and the future of this product reflects that. Live in limited beta in the US now. This is just the beginning...

We are putting a new foundation under legal research in @WeareLegora. Comprehensive data, a full ontology of law, and an AI-native citator. Almost every legal question starts in the same place. What does the law say, and does it still hold. That is also where AI has been least worth trusting, and I think it is the hardest problem in legal AI. Two things have to be true: You have to have the law, and you have to know your way around it. Getting the data is a grind, and a different grind in every country. We partner with publishers where we can. Where nobody will partner, we go and get it ourselves. Manual requests, physical scanning, whatever that jurisdiction takes. We are working through over 100 countries and every type of source. Then the harder half. No agent can reason across hundreds of millions of documents. Something has to choose the sources before the reasoning starts. So we are building an ontology of the law and an AI native citator, compressing corpora of thousands to hundreds of millions of documents into structured data that an agent actually can use to provide reliable output. The publishers did this by hand. 150 years, thousands of attorney editors, every opinion read by a person. We have hired the best of those editors. They set the standard and they call the close ones, but AI does the muscle work. Reading 60 million pages of case law is no longer too expensive to attempt. The ontology is in limited beta now. Generally available in Q4. Full story:
