First Block Live — Reinventing Law with AI: Inside Harvey’s $5B Valuation, hosted by Notion
Harvey AI is rewriting the rules of law - and just hit a $5 billion valuation along the way. Join Notion’s co-founder Akshay Kothari in conversation with Harvey's co-founder & president Gabe Pereyra to unpack how they scaled Harvey to $100M+ ARR while redefining what AI can do in one of the world’s most regulated industries.
We'll dive into:
Purpose-built AI: How Harvey powers many of the world’s top law firms with domain-specific models built for legal work.
From startup to scale: Reaching $100M+ ARR and a $5B valuation in a trust-critical industry.
The business of AI: Raising $800M+ from Sequoia, OpenAI Startup Fund, and Kleiner Perkins - and scaling culture and speed.
The road ahead: What “legal super-intelligence” means for the future of law and beyond.
