EO (亿欧) news on April 17,"Juris Al" (慧多宝法律AI) officially announced the completion of its Pre-A financing round. This round was led by GSR Ventures (金沙江创投), with participation from Pudong Venture Capital (浦东创投)., with Jianzhuo Capital (见灼资本) serving as the financial advisor,The raised funds will be mainly used for market expansion, product R&D, scenario deepening, and organizational capability building, helping the company further consolidate its core competitiveness in the legal AI track and accelerate the large-scale implementation of its products.

JurisAI is a self-developed product of Shanghai JurisAI Limited. (上海法忞銮智能科技有限公司). Established in September 2023, the company precisely entered the legal AI field, which is characterized by high professional barriers and complex processes—this field is also one of the first to achieve commercial breakthroughs during the transition of generative artificial intelligence from "being able to answer questions" to "being able to deliver." Unlike general office and content generation applications, legal business has extremely high requirements for accuracy, reliability, traceability, professionalism, and data security, making it difficult to achieve deep coverage through general models. This also constitutes the core barrier of the industry and the opportunity window for professional legal AI.

From a global market perspective, Legal AI has become one of the most watched AI application directions. The development momentum of overseas similar companies confirms the huge potential of this track: the latest round of financing valuation for the US Legal AI company Harvey reached as high as $11 billion; Legora also successfully completed a $550 million Series D financing round, with a valuation reaching $5.55 billion. The continuous financing and high valuations of overseas Legal AI companies fully reflect the capital market's long-term optimism for the legal scenario, which is characterized by high value, strong willingness to pay, and strong stickiness, and also provide a reference for the development of China's Legal AI market.

JurisAI is positioned as an "AI Assistant for Legal Professionals," and users can register and use it via the JurisAI.cn website and the WeChat Mini Program "JurisAI." Unlike most products on the market that remain at the Q&A assistance level, JurisAI places greater emphasis on revolving around real legal workflows, achieving closed-loop delivery of complex tasks through a rich matrix of legal skills. JurisAI possesses end-to-end autonomous planning and execution capabilities for workflows, capable of efficiently handling long-chain tasks such as case analysis and in-depth research; it excels at multi-file and long-text processing, features project-based permanent memory, and adapts to the long-term, multi-round, and complex collaborative working modes of lawyers. Furthermore, for institutional clients, JurisAI supports private deployment and personalized customization, adapting to the diversified needs of enterprises, such as AI-driven historical corporate legal data insights, contract review, legal document drafting, and internal knowledge management. It can also integrate with internal IT systems via APIs to meet organizational-level standardized management and usage requirements.

Having been online for nearly two years, JurisAI has provided services to tens of thousands of lawyers. In addition to this, the company's user base also includes enterprises, legal personnel, and public organizations such as judicial institutions. Besides providing standardized cloud-based product services, JurisAI has achieved private deployment in top-tier large-scale law firms, listed companies, and judicial institutions, meeting the strict data security protection requirements of institutional clients.

The founding team of JurisAI possesses both legal expertise and AI technology backgrounds. The core members bring together top technical talent from renowned high-tech companies such as Microsoft, Baidu, and Mininglamp Technology (明略科技), as well as senior industry experts from China's Red Circle law firms and the world's top professional service firms. This diverse background has laid a solid foundation for the deep integration of technology and legal scenarios.

Ms. Wang Wei, the company's founder and CEO, graduated from the Law Department of Fudan University. After pursuing further studies at the University of Washington in the U.S., she successively worked at top professional service firms in both the United States and China. In addition, Ms. Wang Wei also served as a core executive at an artificial intelligence enterprise, accumulating interdisciplinary experience spanning from professional services to AI. It was precisely based on a profound understanding of both fields that Ms. Wang Wei keenly seized the opportunity for industry transformation brought about by the development of large language models and founded JurisAI. She is dedicated to reconstructing the work paradigm of the legal industry through AI, using AI to handle complex and time-consuming desk work, so that legal professionals can have more time and energy to focus on high value-added tasks such as professional judgment and strategy. Ms. Wang Wei stated: "Legal AI is not an industry that can be done well simply by the natural spillover of general capabilities; instead, it requires long-term deep immersion in scenarios, understanding of professional processes, respect for industry standards, and continuous refinement of delivery quality. With the help of this round of financing, we will continue to make our product deeper and more specialized to provide better services to users. We also firmly believe that AI will not make legal professionals disappear; the development of AI will assist legal professionals and organizations in further expanding and enhancing their service radius and service capabilities."

Regarding this investment, Zhu Xiaohu, Managing Partner of the lead investor GSR Ventures (金沙江创投), stated: "We have always been bullish on AI products that deliver tangible results rather than those that simply showcase potential at a purely demonstrative level. Legal services represent a market with high professional barriers, rigorous performance standards, and a strong willingness to pay, making legal AI a sector with immense growth potential. The JurisAI (慧多宝) team possesses a deep understanding of legal use cases and has demonstrated exceptional execution in product development, technical roadmap, and commercialization. We are optimistic about the long-term opportunities in China's legal AI market and also believe that Huiduobao AI will continue to establish a leading advantage in this field in the future."

It is reported that after the financing, JurisAI (慧多宝法律AI) will continue to advance steadily along the path of specialization. On one hand, it will deepen its capabilities in the autonomous execution of long-chain legal tasks, project collaboration, organizational-level customization, and private deployment, continuously refining its products. On the other hand, it will accelerate the pace of market expansion both domestically and internationally. While consolidating its existing customer base, it aims to bring legal AI capabilities to a broader user group, upholding the development philosophy of "tech for good" and contributing to the construction of the rule of law in China.
