Breaking: David Ekstein Named Legora CFO
Minutes after the 11:30am announcement, David Ekstein reflects on his three years at Vanta, where he helped raise a $150M Series C at a $2.45B valuation and cross $100M ARR, and explains why insider access to Legora's numbers convinced him to join. He describes his 'electric' planning sessions with CEO Max, points to the $7M ARR added in 24 hours that Max posted publicly, argues AI is not a bubble citing 1999 comparisons, $37B in enterprise AI spend and law firms automating 16% of research hours, and makes an on-air hiring call for Legora salespeople.
