Septeo acquires Lexbase to integrate legal databases and AI into management software

Septeo has acquired Lexbase, a legal information specialist, though the transaction amount was not disclosed. The Montpellier-based company, which provides management software to law firms, will integrate Lexbase's legal databases — including court decisions, legislative texts, and doctrinal articles — into its existing platform. The acquisition comes as AI blurs the boundaries between management software and legal research tools. Septeo plans to launch "Septeo Legal" in October, combining firm management functions with Lexbase's content and AI-powered drafting assistance in a single interface. The deal follows Septeo's €550 million acquisition of German company stp.one in February. Septeo's revenue has grown from €140 million five years ago to an expected €500 million by the end of 2026, with EBITDA approaching €200 million.
