In just one year, that product became the daily tool of thousands of legal professionals across Switzerland, Germany, and Liechtenstein, and a leading legal AI workspace in those markets. Now we are using that foundation to build something even bigger: the AI-native law firm. Every case our lawyers solve becomes a productized, AI-native service. Legal capability that scales, compounds, and can be deployed on demand for the next client. With a 4.5M raise, we're scaling this across Europe.
