Orbital, an AI platform for real estate law, has raised $60 million in a Series B funding round to support continued growth in the US and UK. The round was led by Brighton Park Capital and included participation from investors across the legal and real estate sectors, including REV, The LegalTech Fund, Moderne Ventures, and Grosvenor Group. Existing investors JLL Spark, Outward, and Seedcamp also participated.
Orbital develops AI technology tailored to the specific requirements of real estate legal work, an area that has seen relatively limited coverage from broader legal technology platforms. By combining AI designed for real estate law with spatial visualisation, mapping, and property data, the platform automates document-intensive legal processes and supports more efficient transaction workflows.
The company was co-founded in 2018 by Will Pearce and Ed Boulle. Its platform supports hundreds of thousands of residential and commercial real estate transactions each year for thousands of property professionals, including law firms, in-house legal teams, developers, title companies, and real estate investment trusts. Orbital’s customer base includes large international law firms and multinational companies across the real estate sector.
Will Pearce, Orbital's CEO and co-founder, noted that although real estate is the world’s largest asset class, the legal processes that support it are still largely manual, fragmented, and opaque, with many practices having changed little for more than a century.
Orbital is changing that with AI purpose-built for real estate, making transactions more transparent and reliable for all parties.
With the new funding, the company plans to expand across the wider real estate ecosystem and increase investment in product development, with the goal of creating a single, secure workspace for real estate legal work across the full asset lifecycle.
Following the opening of its New York office in 2025, Orbital plans to grow its team and establish additional US hubs to better support customers.
