According to Bloomberg, AI legal startup Norm has raised $120 million in a new funding round, valuing the company at $1.2 billion. The round was led by Khosla Ventures, with participation from Blackstone, Bain Capital Ventures, and Coatue Management, among other investors. To date, Norm has secured over $260 million in total cumulative funding. Founded in 2023, Norm is among a growing cohort of startups leveraging AI to assist legal professionals with document drafting, research, and contract review. Other firms including Anthropic and Harvey have also launched AI agents and software tailored for lawyers.
