Spellbook

Scott Stevenson had lawyers and a Word workflow ready in 2018 - so he shipped legal GenAI before ChatGPT existed.

First, in Word. Being first and living in Word won thousands of mid-market firms. Now Harvey's capital and Microsoft's Copilot both circle the same lawyers.

BetaKit: on track to hit $100M USD ARR, $80M+ raised, $350M valuationArtificial Lawyer: Spellbook raises $50M, CEO Scott Stevenson interviewCrypto Briefing: Stevenson on 3-5x ARR inflation and Spellbook's live-ARR reportingSpellbook.com: product, 4,500+ legal teams, Word-native
verified:true - the $100M figure is first-party, stated by CEO Scott Stevenson (BetaKit, Globe and Mail). Caveat: it is an on-track 'live ARR' run-rate target for 2026, not a closed-year audited figure; Spellbook tripled revenue in 2025 but does not break out an exact current number. Notably, Spellbook reports only invoiced 'Live Annual Run Rate' and its CEO publicly criticizes peers for conflating Contracted ARR with revenue (3-5x gaps). Spellbook is VC-funded ($80M+ raised, $350M post-money), not bootstrapped. Customer/reach/capital metrics are company-stated via BetaKit (Oct 2025); spellbook.com cites 4,500+ teams vs ~4,000 in press. Rival positioning (Harvey, CoCounsel, Robin AI) is our read. Fast Company's ARR piece returned 403, so the inflation quotes are sourced from Crypto Briefing and Artificial Lawyer instead. We never score you.
