Sandstone Nabs $30M to Automate Legal Work With AI
AI-powered legal workflow startup Sandstone closes $30M Series A as legal tech becomes one of AI's hottest verticals.
Sandstone just locked down a $30M Series A led by Lightspeed. The startup builds AI-powered workflow automation tools targeting legal teams at small and mid-sized businesses.
Legal tech is rapidly emerging as one of the most competitive corners of the AI startup world. Rivals like Harvey and Legora have already burned through eight-figure funding rounds of their own, signaling serious investor appetite for the space.
Sandstone's focus on smaller firms is a deliberate lane choice. Enterprise legal AI is crowded. The SMB segment, meanwhile, is underserved and desperate for tools that cut through repetitive legal workflows without requiring a massive IT budget.
The round puts Sandstone in a strong position to scale its product and compete in a vertical where momentum — and capital — are accelerating fast.
