Overview
Clio is one of the most highly valued specialist legal practice management companies. Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, it announced on 10 November 2025 that it had completed a US$1 billion acquisition of vLex, a legal intelligence company, and raised a US$500 million Series G led by New Enterprise Associates at a US$5 billion valuation. TCV, Goldman Sachs Asset Management, Sixth Street Growth and JMI Equity participated, and Blackstone and Blue Owl Capital led a separate US$350 million debt facility.[1]
Clio describes itself as trusted by hundreds of thousands of legal professionals in more than 130 countries and approved by more than 100 bar associations and law societies. Its products include Clio Manage for practice management, Clio Grow for intake and CRM, Clio Draft for document automation, Clio Work, Clio Operate and Clio for Enterprise, together forming what it calls the Intelligent Legal Work Platform; the acquisition added vLex’s Vincent AI.[1]
Clio’s advantages are its scale, ecosystem and the combination of practice management with legal research AI. Clio’s pricing page could not be opened for this review, so plan prices are not listed here; buyers should confirm current per-user rates and which AI features are included.
