What is Leya?

Leya was founded in Stockholm in 2023 by Max Junestrand (CEO) and Sigge Labor (CTO), both ex-Klarna engineers, to build a legal AI product that actually works in European languages — German, French, Swedish, Spanish, Dutch, and so on. It quickly became the dominant European legal AI play, raising a $35M Series B led by Iconiq in 2025 and signing many of the largest Nordic and Iberian firms. Leya supports research, drafting, contract review, and Q&A across firm knowledge with first-class multilingual handling and EU data residency.
