[Syllo](https://syllo.ai/ai-powered-litigation/), a startup building AI litigation software, has raised $30 million in a growth funding round from Venrock and Two Seas Capital. The company plans to use the capital to accelerate development of its AI-powered workspace for lawyers, a platform designed to automate the notoriously grueling process of legal discovery and case preparation.

The legal industry, often a laggard in tech adoption, is facing a data deluge in modern litigation. Syllo’s platform aims to turn that firehose of information into a strategic advantage. Instead of armies of paralegals manually sifting through millions of documents for months, Syllo’s software automates this “first-level review,” claiming to be up to 20 times faster than human teams.

## Automating the Search for the Smoking Gun

According to the company, its platform is more than just a supercharged search engine. Syllo uses what it calls “Agentic AI” to help lawyers investigate, test case theories, and find “hot documents” in minutes. This approach moves beyond traditional keyword-based technology, allowing legal teams to iterate on strategy and respond to opponents with greater speed.

The approach seems to be gaining traction. In a case study, the law firm Quinn Emanuel used Syllo to condense six months of trial preparation into six weeks for a $300 million case, ultimately securing a win. Syllo has also inked a multi-year deal with global law firm Pillsbury and won innovation awards alongside Ballard Spahr.

This real-world adoption by major firms is likely what caught the eye of investors. “The company has established a high level of trust with leading litigation firms, and its software represents a step-function improvement in capabilities for the industry,” said Nick Beim, a partner at Venrock, in a statement.

Founded by a team of litigators and engineers, Syllo’s domain-specific focus gives it an edge in a vertical where understanding nuance is critical. The $30 million infusion will fund hiring and go-to-market efforts, signaling a broader push to make AI a standard tool in every litigator’s arsenal.
