Harvey Confirms $11B Valuation After $200M Raise
Harvey, a legal‑AI startup founded in 2022, raised $200 million in a financing round that values the company at $11 billion. The round was co‑led by Singapore sovereign investor GIC and venture firm Sequoia. Harvey provides AI tools for legal and professional services—used by more than 100,000 lawyers across about 1,300 organizations—and counts clients such as NBCUniversal and HSBC. The company reported $190 million in annual recurring revenue in January, up from $100 million in August, and said it will use the new capital to expand its AI agents and grow embedded legal engineering teams worldwide. Sequoia has repeatedly led recent Harvey rounds; the raise follows an $8 billion valuation disclosed in December and reflects continued VC appetite for specialized, vertical AI applications beyond base model companies.
