Leya

Leya was a Stockholm-based legal AI startup founded in 2023 by Max Junestrand (CEO) and Sigge Labor, building an AI-powered workspace for law firms and legal professionals that automated repetitive document review, drafting, and legal research tasks across public sources and a firm's own private data. The company went through Y Combinator (Winter 2024 batch), partnered with leading Nordic firms such as Mannheimer Swartling beginning May 2023, raised a $10.5M seed (May 2024) and a $25M Series A (July 2024), and was named one of Stockholm's hottest startups by WIRED in 2024. Leya offered a collaborative legal AI workspace with tabular review (large-scale parallel document analysis) and was rolled out to 200+ law firms across 15+ countries under the Leya brand. On 19 February 2025 the company fully rebranded to Legora, retaining the same founders, Stockholm headquarters, and product, while expanding with agentic research tools and a Microsoft Word add-in. The Leya brand and product line have been entirely absorbed into Legora; there is no separate ongoing Leya product, no public developer API, no SDK, and no GitHub presence under the Leya name. This entry preserves the Leya identity for historical reference; see the legora entry for the ongoing company profile.
