Our take

Traditionally, legal services are expensive, and legal administration is a cumbersome and time-consuming process. Robin AI is a technology firm that is developing products designed to improve the administration and contract elements of the legal industry by saving businesses valuable time and money.

Businesses can delegate low complexity work to Robin's AI which allows employees to focus on more important tasks. This is supported through guidance consultation and enterprise grade encryption to ensure security. Robin's edge comes from its combination of advanced machine learning, which analyses businesses' contracts, and its team of human legal experts, who validate the output. Robin AI claims to be able to reduce customers legal by up to 75% through its software.

The company has a growing list of international clients and its team has extensive backgrounds in both law and technology. Further, recent funding will be used to expand its US team, an important step because three-quarters of the company's revenues come from the US. The Series B will also be used to open an office in Singapore as Robin AI expands into Asia Pacific and develop its existing AI and machine learning experts team.
