Legora announces +40% on a tie-out with GPT-6 Astra

Legora reports quantified gains with GPT-6 Astra: nearly 40% improvement on a financial tie-out workflow and about 3% on average across its internal benchmark. The agent identified four inserted errors, including a £500,000 discrepancy, and added around fifty checks compared to the previous model. The company also claims to have processed 41 documents in just a few minutes during a single execution, while maintaining expert validation.

Improved Performance and Errors Uncovered

According to Legora, GPT-6 Astra has delivered approximately 40% progress on the financial statement workflow compared to the previous model, and an average increase of 3% across all tasks in its internal benchmark, BAR. During a tie-out session, the model identified the four mistakes inserted by the team, including a hidden £500,000 differential in a revenue note. GPT-6 Astra retained the checks correctly performed by the previous model and added about 50 additional checks. Legora states that each balance was verified against its supporting schedule and every check was recorded. The company describes a more comprehensive and faster initial pass, with a clearer review file to examine, while keeping the final decision in the hands of the legal expert. These results are accompanied by gains in accuracy, completeness, and reliability, according to Legora.

A Tie-Out on 41 Documents Completed in One Execution

Legora reports that with GPT-6 Astra, its agent performed a tie-out on 41 documents in a single execution, claiming that the operation took just a few minutes. The agent, according to the company, verified each balance against its supporting schedule, highlighted discrepancies, and recorded each check to create a detailed statement for the legal professional. Percevale Perks, a legal engineer at Legora, attributes the difference to the processing power and the ability to ingest a large number of documents and complex information. He notes that this type of work can take an entire evening, sometimes even days.

Human Oversight and Deployment Beyond Law

Within Legora, the agent performs all comparisons while the expert retains the responsibility of validating each result; this human-in-the-loop setup is deemed essential by the company to evolve its platform into areas such as auditing, taxation, compliance, and risk. Legora describes its solution as an agentic operating system for legal and related professions, claiming over 100,000 users across more than 1,800 internal legal departments and law firms, operating in over 50 markets. Legora's legal engineers work directly with clients to tailor the platform to their workflows, whether it involves contract review, legal research, or repetitive tasks such as financial statement tie-outs. Legora indicates that it mobilizes Astra to enhance accuracy, completeness, and reliability, while leaving the final decision to legal professionals, and evaluates performance with its BAR benchmark based on real use cases.
