Lebanon based legal technology company HAQQ Legal AI has raised a total of $3 million to accelerate the digitisation of legal work. The funding supports the global rollout of its Legal AI and practice management platform. The company aims to modernise how legal services operate across enterprises and institutions.
Funding to Accelerate Legal AI Innovation
The funding round was led by Sowlutions Ventures with participation from several strategic and financial investors. The raise reflects strong confidence in HAQQ’s vision to build core digital infrastructure for the legal sector.
The capital will support:
- Deeper development of Legal AI systems
- Expansion across MENA markets
- Enterprise and institutional deployments
- Stronger security and compliance foundations
HAQQ already operates in Egypt and Jordan. It plans to grow further across the region.
Building a Full Legal Operating System
Founded in 2020 by Antoine Kanaan and Maître Abbas Kabalan, HAQQ is building a vertically integrated Legal AI operating system. The platform runs legal work from start to finish inside one secure environment.
It combines:
- AI native legal intelligence
- Practice management and workflows
- Payments and financial processes
- Institutional legal infrastructure
The system now serves over 7,000 clients. These include law firms, enterprises, courts, bar associations, public bodies, and individual users. HAQQ focuses on secure, auditable, and jurisdiction aware execution at scale.
How HAQQ’s Legal AI Works
HAQQ does not offer generic Legal AI. It delivers context aware intelligence built on structured legal ontologies. The system adapts to how each organization works and decides.
At the core sits Justinian®, HAQQ’s proprietary Legal AI engine. It produces client ready legal output in a single prompt. The engine aligns with firm data, governance rules, and workflows.
Key capabilities include:
- Legal drafting and research
- Review and summarization
- Practice management and ERP tools
- Institutional systems for regulators and courts
- Enterprise legal AI twin models
Internal benchmarks show strong performance on accuracy and jurisdiction reliability.
Solving a Trillion Dollar Industry Gap
The global legal industry exceeds $1 trillion in value. Yet it remains one of the least digitised sectors. Most legal work relies on fragmented tools and manual effort.
HAQQ addresses this gap by building infrastructure designed for scale. Its platform unifies systems that legal institutions have lacked for decades. The goal is clear access, efficiency, and transparency.
Vision for the Future of Justice
Founder and CEO Antoine Kanaan states that Legal AI goes beyond chat tools. He emphasizes systems, security, and real world decision modeling. Chief Legal Officer Maître Abbas Kabalan adds that HAQQ strengthens human judgment rather than replacing it.
HAQQ plans to expand globally. The company aims to define how legal knowledge is created, governed, and applied. Its long term mission focuses on secure, AI native justice systems worldwide.
