Sandstone Announces $30M in Funding to Bring AI Workflow Automation to In-House Legal Teams - Real News hub
Summary
Sandstone announced a $30 million Series A funding round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, bringing its total funding to approximately $40 million just six months after a $10 million seed round led by Sequoia Capital. The company said the new capital will support product development and expansion among corporate legal teams at small and mid-sized companies, as well as select Fortune 500 organizations.
The article describes Sandstone as an AI-native platform built specifically for in-house legal departments. Unlike legal AI tools aimed mainly at law firms, Sandstone focuses on workflow challenges inside corporate legal teams, including intake from Slack, email, Jira and other channels. Its AI agents are designed to understand requests, gather context from company systems, route work to the right people, support custom workflows, and help teams apply internal playbooks, permissions and institutional knowledge.
Sandstone reportedly serves dozens of paying customers, including several Fortune 500 companies. The platform integrates with more than 50 tools, including Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Slack and Jira. With the funding, Sandstone plans to deepen its product capabilities, grow its engineering and go-to-market teams, and position itself as an operating system for modern in-house legal departments.
