Clio, Harvey, and EvenUp secure spots on Forbes Cloud 100, highlighting AI’s growing role in transforming legal technology worldwide.
Artificial intelligence isn’t just dominating Silicon Valley—it’s transforming the legal industry. That reality is clear in this year’s Forbes Cloud 100, the annual ranking of the world’s top private cloud companies, where legal tech names stand out amid the AI wave.
Three legal-focused companies made the cut. Vancouver-based Clio climbed from 56th to 46th, strengthening its position as Canada’s legal tech unicorn. Forbes highlighted Clio’s reach—over 200,000 legal professionals use its platform, which is endorsed by more than 100 law societies and bar associations worldwide. Clio, which has raised $1.29 billion to date, also drew attention for its $1 billion acquisition of vLex, the company behind AI-powered legal research assistant Vincent AI.
Generative AI platform Harvey, ranked 91st, is reshaping how firms manage documents and answer complex legal queries. Built to securely handle thousands of sensitive records, Harvey helps lawyers cut through the clutter of court filings and contracts while providing rapid, AI-driven insights.
At 100th, EvenUp is tackling personal injury law with automation. The $1 billion company now supports more than 1,500 firms, analyzing medical records and generating over $7 billion in claims to date. Its recent growth includes new San Francisco headquarters and workflow tools that accelerate document drafting and review.
Also on the list is DeepL, ranked 75th. While not exclusively legal, its AI-powered translation service is widely used by lawyers navigating cross-border cases. Founded in 2017, DeepL supports translations across 30 languages, including Japanese, Portuguese, and Estonian, helping professionals make documents sound more natural in another tongue.
The inclusion of Clio, Harvey, EvenUp, and DeepL underscores how quickly AI-driven legal technology is scaling. From practice management to research, litigation, and cross-border communication, the Cloud 100 shows that AI is no longer an emerging trend in law—it’s a defining force.
