Legal Tech Booms: Harvey Hits $3B Valuation, Eve Raises $47M

Legal tech funding reached record numbers in 2024, and the trend continues. Harvey doubled its valuation to $3 billion after raising $300M, while Eve secured a $47M Series A.

Legal Tech Booms: Harvey Hits $3B Valuation, Eve Raises $47M
  • Harvey is poised to secure a $300 million funding round, doubling its valuation to $3 billion.

  • Eve, an AI platform for plaintiff firms, raised $47 million in Series A funding led by Andreessen Horowitz.

  • Legal tech funding hit record highs in 2024, though deal volume declined.

  • Generative AI continues to drive investor interest in legal technology startups.

Investors are pouring money into legal technology startups, driven primarily by the promise of generative artificial intelligence and its many potential uses in the legal sector. 

One of the most notable legal AI startups, Harvey, is making headlines as it’s set to secure a significant amount of funding, while newcomer Eve, an AI platform designed for plaintiff firms, has raised an impressive amount in Series A funding.

Both companies leverage AI to revolutionize legal workflows, signaling a maturation of the legal tech industry as it embraces cutting-edge solutions.

Harvey’s $3 Billion Milestone

  • Harvey, a generative AI platform tailored for law firms, is set to raise $300 million in a funding round led by Sequoia Capital, according to Bloomberg Law.

  • The investment will propel its valuation to $3 billion, more than doubling its previous worth.

Backed by major players like OpenAI Startup Fund, Kleiner Perkins, and Coatue Management, Harvey aims to transform how law firms operate by offering AI-driven tools to enhance efficiency and reduce costs. 

Competing with peers like EvenUp and Robin AI, the San Francisco-based startup stands out as one of the leaders in applying generative AI within the legal sector.

Eve’s $47 Million Expansion

  • Eve, an AI platform designed for plaintiff firms, raised $47 million in Series A funding led by Andreessen Horowitz, with participation from Lightspeed Venture Partners and Menlo Ventures, LawSites reported.

  • The funding will support Eve’s product development and market expansion, empowering personal injury firms to leverage AI in case management.

The platform offers a suite of tools for intake, pre-litigation, and discovery, enabling firms to optimize their workflows and enhance client outcomes. Key features include drafting demand letters, generating medical chronologies, and calculating damages—all tailored to firm-specific needs.

Eve has already signed over 80 new law firms in the past year, achieving a fivefold revenue increase. 

“Our platform provides firms with the advanced tools they need to improve client outcomes and drive profitability,” said CEO Jay Madheswaran. “We envision a future where every plaintiff firm operates as fully AI-native, delivering advocacy with unmatched efficiency and precision.”

Broader Funding Trends

While legal tech funding reached record highs in 2024, the number of deals dropped significantly, reflecting a market increasingly dominated by larger players.

According to Legal Complex data, fewer companies are securing funding, but those that do are attracting substantial investments.

However, high levels of debt financing in the sector highlight challenges for mid-tier companies unable to scale or compete with newer, AI-focused entrants.
