Orbital, the AI platform for real estate law, has raised a $60M Series B funding round led by New York-based growth fund, Brighton Park Capital (BPC). Building on its position as the UK’s market leader in real estate legal AI, Orbital will use the investment to support continued US and UK growth and expand adoption across the real estate transaction ecosystem.
Taking On The LegalTech Sector
Orbital’s technology is designed to meet the deeply specific demands of real estate legal work, a practice area materially underserved by the broader legaltech AI landscape. By combining AI optimized for real estate law with spatial visualization, mapping, and real estate data, Orbital automates real estate legal work and enables transactions to progress faster. This will replace manual, document-heavy review across hundreds of interdependent records, maps and historic deeds (many of which date back decades or even centuries) and chart the course to fully automated AI-driven real estate legal processes, introducing speed and transparency for the world’s largest asset class.
Orbital ended 2025 supporting 200,000 real estate transactions across the US and UK. Orbital products are used by hundreds of law firms across AM Law 100, Magic Circle, and beyond, as well as in-house legal teams, real estate developers, title companies, and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), demonstrating the breadth of adoption across varied real estate deals.
Expansion Into The US
The funding round will support Orbital’s expansion into the broader real estate ecosystem and accelerate product investment to build a single, secure workspace for real estate legal work across the lifecycle of the entire real estate asset class. Following the opening of its New York office in 2025, the company plans to double headcount and establish additional US hubs from where it can best serve its customers.
Led by Brighton Park Capital, the round also featured participation from investors across the legal and real estate sectors, with new investors including REV, the venture capital arm of RELX which owns LexisNexis Legal & Professional; The LegalTech Fund; Moderne Ventures; and Grosvenor Group, the international real estate company and an existing Orbital customer. Existing investors including JLL Spark, Outward, and Seedcamp also participated in the round.
On the news, CEO and co-founder Will Pearce comments:
“Real estate is, by far, the world’s largest asset class. Yet the legal work that underpins it remains slow, fragmented and largely manual: opaque work that in many cases hasn’t meaningfully changed since the 19th century. Orbital is changing that with AI purpose-built for real estate, making transactions more transparent and reliable for all parties. This funding round brings together investors and operators who understand these challenges firsthand and share our conviction that the real estate legal category is ready for transformation. With their support, we’re accelerating our US expansion and extending Orbital’s potential across the full real estate transaction lifecycle – fundamentally improving how work gets done for the professionals who operate within it, and for everyone who derives value from real estate.”
Kevin Magan, Partner at Brighton Park Capital who will be joining the board, added:
“We recognized immediately that Orbital is targeting a critical gap in the legal AI sector. Real estate law is one of the most complex legal markets globally, yet it has remained dramatically under-automated. Orbital’s focus on accuracy, real estate domain expertise, and real-world workflows positions them to define a new category in legal automation. We are incredibly excited to partner with Orbital in this next stage of growth as they expand more aggressively into the US market.”
