Sandstone Secures $30 Million to Automate In-House Legal Workflows

Sandstone Secures $30 Million to Automate In-House Legal Workflows

Lightspeed Venture Partners led the latest financing, which arrives only six months after a $10 million seed round backed by Sequoia. The company plans to use the capital to scale its platform, which functions as a triage engine for small and mid-sized businesses. By integrating with tools like Slack, email, and Jira, the software routes incoming requests and automates the subsequent drafting and review cycles.

Unlike systems designed for law firm litigation, Sandstone prioritizes relationship management and task execution. Co-founder and COO Jarryd Strydom argues that generic AI models often fail to grasp the granular workflow requirements of corporate legal departments. This specialized approach faces pressure from frontier labs, including Anthropic, which recently expanded its Claude for Legal suite to handle case law searches and deposition preparation.
