Sandstone raises $30M to bring AI into in-house legal workflows
Sandstone’s $30 million Series A highlights how legal AI is moving beyond law firms and into the day-to-day work of corporate legal teams.
Legal AI is moving closer to the people handling company contracts, approvals and risk every day. Sandstone’s raise shows that in-house legal teams are becoming a serious target for workflow automation.
What happened
Sandstone raised a $30 million Series A to build AI tools for in-house legal teams. The company focuses on helping corporate legal departments automate workflows such as intake, triage, drafting, review and legal operations.
Why it matters
In-house legal teams often deal with high volumes of repetitive requests while still needing accuracy, context and control. AI tools that reduce manual work could help legal departments respond faster without relying only on external counsel.
The bigger picture
Legaltech is becoming more vertical and workflow-specific. The strongest AI products may be those that understand a clear user group, a repeated process and the risk boundaries that come with professional work.
