LawX raises €7.5 million to build AI operating system for law firms and notaries
Summary
Berlin-based legal technology startup LawX has raised €7.5 million in seed funding to build an AI-powered operating system designed to automate core workflows in law firms and notaries' offices. Motive Partners led the round, with participation from WENVEST Capital, xdeck, and SIVentures. The startup, founded in late 2024 by Dr Norman Koschmieder, Dr Sara Brinkmann, and Torben Rabe, launched its product in November 2025 and has already generated more than €1 million in contracted recurring revenue. German law firms and notaries face a structural mismatch where demand for legal services continues to grow while qualified administrative staff becomes harder to find. About 50% of activities in law firms remain administrative work, often handled through software systems from the 1990s. LawX's platform integrates case management, document processing and creation, communication, billing, and workflow management into a single system to reduce time spent on manual administrative tasks. The company designed the system for regulated environments, holding ISO 27001 certification and hosting client data in German data centers with C5 certification. LawX deliberately entered the German notary market first, where labor shortages and outdated systems create both urgent problems and high automation potential. About 75% of German notaries also hold law licenses, creating a direct pathway to expand into the broader legal market. The company plans to expand its product offering into the broader law firm market starting this summer. The new funding will support product development, platform strengthening, and expansion of sales and customer support operations.
