Hargora

The Future of the Future of Law™

April 1 – 10, 2026

On April 1st 2026, r/legaltech announced that Harvey and Legora had merged to form Hargora — the world's largest AI legal platform, valued at $16.55 billion.

It was, of course, completely made up.

But for a few glorious hours — and then, by popular request, ten glorious days — hargora.com was a fully operational 21-page corporate website with a logo reveal animation, five fictional products, surge pricing tied to the Texas power grid, a board of directors composed of autonomous AI agents, a merch store, and a careers page that listed "Prompt Sommelier" as an open role.

The site also included a blog post about a fictional field deployment where the AI platform's only recommendation was to hire outside counsel, and a terms of service that granted Hargora perpetual rights to the concept of jurisprudence.

The numbers

It was seen by over 75,000 people, and both sides took it incredibly well.

With thanks to

George Hannah, Kevin Buehler, Maria Victoria Yuste, Bríd Heffernan LLB, Gregory Mostyn, Chris Louie, and Sky Discovery — for sharing it on LinkedIn and making sure the legal tech world saw it.

Credit where it's due

The name "Hargora" was coined by Richard Tromans of Artificial Lawyer on March 16th, 2026 — two weeks before r/legaltech ran with it. In his Legal Week recap, Tromans used "Hargora" as shorthand for the Harvey-and-Legora phenomenon, describing them as companies that had come not just to compete, but to take ownership of the legal tech vertical.

We thought that was too good a word to leave on the page. So we built it a website.

The site, preserved

Hargora.com ran from April 1–10, 2026. Here's what it looked like.

Now for the real thing

Hargora was fun. But if you actually want to figure out which legal tech tools are worth your time, you're in the right place.

Harvey and Legora are real, separate, independent companies doing genuinely interesting work. We satirised them because the legal tech world needed a good laugh — and because their brands are so strong that a fake merger was instantly believable. That's a compliment.
