DeepJudge Lands $10.7M to Transform Legal Data Use
DeepJudge, a leading AI technology company, has announced the successful completion of a $US 10.7 million seed funding round led by New York-based Coatue.

“We are thrilled to receive this substantial investment from Coatue, which validates our vision of transforming legal workflows through AI technology,” said Paulina Grnarova, CEO of DeepJudge. “The Knowledge Assistant represents a significant leap forward in legal tech, offering precise, context-aware information retrieval that will greatly benefit law firms of all sizes.”

We are impressed by DeepJudge’s approach to solving data retrieval, which we believe is crucial to achieving high-quality generative results.

The funding will be used to further develop the Knowledge Assistant, expand the team, and enhance the platform’s capabilities.
