HAQQ Legal AI, a LegalTech company building an AI operating system for the legal industry, has announced that it has raised a total of $3m to date as it accelerates the development and international deployment of its Legal AI and practice management platform.
The funding round was led by Sowlutions Ventures, with participation from HITEK Ventures, Corona Legal, IM FNDNG, Highworth, Razor Capital, SYMAX, Hamady Trust, alongside a number of unnamed strategic partners. HAQQ Legal AI is also a member of the NVIDIA Inception Alliance Program, supporting its work on large-scale AI infrastructure and applied legal intelligence.
Founded to address structural inefficiencies in the legal sector, HAQQ Legal AI is developing a vertically integrated Legal AI platform that brings together AI-native legal intelligence, legal practice management, payments and institutional infrastructure into a single operating system. The company positions its technology as an alternative to fragmented legal tools that dominate much of the industry today.
The platform currently serves more than 7,000 clients, including enterprise legal teams, law firms, bar associations, courts, public institutions and individual users. It is designed to enable secure, auditable and jurisdiction-aware legal execution, with a focus on operating legal work at scale across different regulatory environments.
HAQQ Legal AI’s approach centres on delivering context-aware Legal AI built on structured legal ontologies and firm-specific digital twins, rather than generic large language models. Its proprietary Legal AI engine, Justinian®, is designed to produce client-ready legal work from a single prompt, with the company claiming it outperforms general-purpose AI models on accuracy, structure and jurisdictional reliability across both internal benchmarks and real-world deployments.
The company plans to use the new capital to deepen its Legal AI and agent architecture, expand enterprise and institutional deployments across the MENA region and selected global markets, and further strengthen its security, compliance and data-residency foundations. Funding will also support the scaling of engineering, product and go-to-market teams as the platform evolves into a system of record for legal work.
The announcement comes against the backdrop of a global legal industry valued at more than $1tn, which remains one of the least digitised sectors worldwide. HAQQ Legal AI says its platform is designed to unify legal drafting, research, review and summarisation, end-to-end practice management systems, international payments workflows, and institutional systems for courts, regulators and professional bodies.
HAQQ Legal AI founder & CEO Antoine Kanaan said, “Quite a lot of people wonder how we can be so confident about the future of Legal AI, and the answer is quite simple, really: we’re the ones building it. Legal AI is much more than just a chatbot; it’s ontological systems, security infrastructure, data mapping, context building, and predictive analytics. It’s not just about understanding jurisprudence; it’s about modelling real-world enterprise decision-making, workflows, and outcomes. This is what it really means to digitize Justice.”
HAQQ Legal AI founder & chief legal officer Maître Abbas Kabalan said, “HAQQ is not about replacing human judgement. It’s about strengthening it. We use AI to take the repetitive, heavy work off lawyers’ shoulders so they can spend more time on what really matters: clear thinking, better decision-making, advocating for clients, and building real human relationships. The goal isn’t to turn lawyers into machines. It’s to give them better tools so they can be more present, more strategic, and more human in the way they practise law. We are leveraging AI to remove friction so lawyers can do more of what only lawyers can do.”
