Qura

One year ago, we showed our first prototype to a handful of lawyers in Stockholm. Today, Qura has launched its platform to legal teams in over 10 European countries. To support our growth, we're hiring for three key roles at our Stockholm office. Account Executive - Europe We are seeking a battle-tested B2B salesperson to book, demo, and onboard top law firms, banks, and large corp. in-house legal teams. As our first pan-European hire, you'll be part of building our global sales organisation from the ground up. Head of Data  Qura requires perfect coverage of hundreds of legal sources, all interconnected in a spider web that our users must be able to navigate in seconds. We seek an independent puzzle maniac eager to create a granular mapping that will become the golden standard for accessing legal knowledge in Europe. This role demands incredible attention to detail and an appetite for complex data. Full-stack Developer We're looking for a natural leader who can join the core team in sharing responsibility of building Qura's search engine, interface, and AI-structured databases; the entire stack from end to end. A strong sense of UX is essential. Interested? Go to our LinkedIN job listings or email us at team @ qura dot law

Our co-founder Elisabet Dahlman Löfgren has been awarded the Legal Innovator Prize 2024 with the following motivation: “The Legal Innovator Prize 2024 will be awarded to a person that through leadership and persistence has been a key player in the legal tech ecosystem in Sweden.   We would like to award Elisabet Dahlman Löfgren for her great work. Elisabet founded the MSA Innovation Lab at Mannheimer Swartling, the most successful legal tech incubator in Sweden. In addition to her role as Head of Innovation and Knowledge Management at Mannheimer Swartling, she has been leading the incubator since the start and has supported the development of eight legal tech companies (Pocketlaw, Eperoto, Leya, Techquity, Brackets, Centi, Wemble.) After 22 years as a lawyer she then made the jump into the uncertain world of start-ups by founding Qura, the AI legal research company. Throughout these many years of driving innovation, Elisabet has made a lasting impact on the Swedish legal tech scene and remains an inspiration to us all. Her journey shows that even if we've been excelling in the same – even innovative – field for a long time, we can always embrace new challenges and pursue fresh opportunities in our careers and lives.” We are beyond proud. The prize was awarded at the 10th anniversary of Nordic Legal Tech Day. Thank you LegalWorks Nordic for a great event!

Qura has raised a €2.1 million round. ChatGPT created a hype around AI's ability to write. Qura shows the power when AI reads, understands, and connects millions of pages of text. A legal database that took two weeks to search is combed in eight seconds with Qura's AI search engine, which reads every single page for you and returns the relevant sources. We will use the funds to improve the platform further and collect more legal data. The round was led by Cherry Ventures and we are delighted to welcome their general partner Sophia Bendz to our board.

Foyen’s AI Success Story with Qura and Foytech – now available to all. After trying several AI products, Foyen decided to move forward only with Qura and Foytech, which they have rolled out across the entire firm of nearly 100 practitioners.

Foyen Advokatfirma Sverige was one of the first customers to start using Qura’s Beta this spring, now followed by over 50 legal teams in the Nordics. After trying several external AI solutions, Foyen decided to move forward only with Qura, which they have rolled out across the entire firm of nearly 100 practitioners. Foyen is pairing Qura with the GenAI offering by Foytech, and has found great success in this approach. Foytech started as an internal Foyen project but has now been moved to an independent company and is being launched to the entire Nordic legal market. Inspired by Foyen’s AI success in combining the two tools, Qura and Foytech will now enter into a partnership allowing overlapping customers to easily use both products together to create a powerful AI toolkit.

Since Beta-launch in April, Qura has onboarded and granted early access to 30 Swedish legal teams, including the region's top law firms, banks, and corporations. The next step is a full Swedish launch. Learn more and schedule a call to get started at: https://www.qura.law/ For lawyers outside of Sweden: We are activating the first Qura EU users in September. Qura EU is centralizing all legal data (EUR-Lex, EBA, EDPB, and +10 more) and making it AI-searchable. If you think your firm is a domain leader fit for early access – reach out!

It's time to introduce some stellar reinforcements to Qura. Building valuable legal technology requires a powerful balance between legal expertise and elite technical competence: Isac Skoglund (right) and Olof Tingskull (left) are both experienced software engineers. A zeal for cutting-edge tech and a heavy dose of raw talent, honed from the renowned Engineering Physics program at KTH, is how they build the world's best AI-powered search engine at Qura. Johan Axberger (center) is our legal genius, representing the next generation of lawyers. Last year, when Johan got his hands on the first-edition baby version of Qura, he was stunned and chose to join us. Aside from being a stellar legal counsel, he runs a legal team developing a database of thousands of realistic legal cases, allowing us to evaluate Qura's performance and thus be confident that our search engine is world-leading on legal search by far. We are launching industry-altering technology and have just opened applications for new roles, with more coming later today. If you are a keen talent but no roles match your profile, contact us at team@qura.law

Qura is an AI-powered search engine that allows in-depth semantic searches of large legal databases. Early case studies indicate that Qura cuts manual research time by up to 80%. Qura breaks the pattern against legal-tech solutions built on Generative AI. To deliver a product tailored to current legal practices, Qura searches authentic sources instead of providing AI-generated summaries. “Not all AI should be generative. When dealing with complex and difficult legal research, lawyers cannot rely on a chatbot to generate a nuanced answer. Instead, Qura employs AI to make legal data searchable using natural language. Beyond increased efficiency, our AI can find gems outside the scope of human search,” says CEO Arvid Winterfeldt. https://lnkd.in/e8Kmp6N4 #ai #legal #legaltech #productlaunch #legaltechtalk
