PRESS RELEASE — Legal due diligence has been slow, costly, and prone to human error for too long. Belgian legaltech company Jurimesh is changing that.
Jurimesh has raised €1.6 million in pre-seed funding, led by Syndicate One and joined by several business angels. The investment will help refine its AI-driven due diligence platform and accelerate its European expansion.
Lawyers traditionally spend weeks manually reviewing contracts, cross-checking clauses, and compiling reports, a process that is inefficient and prone to errors. Jurimesh integrates with data rooms, using advanced AI-powered document recognition and Large Language Models to identify risks, suggest recommendations, and generate due diligence reports. By working closely with M&A law firms, the company has proven that due diligence can be faster, more accurate, and far less labor-intensive.
“Jurimesh helps us structure information faster and automatically identify contractual risks,” said Davy Gorselé, managing partner at Quorum. “It improves both efficiency and the quality of our legal advice.”
Building the Future of Automated Due Diligence
With this investment, Jurimesh plans to:
- Enhance its AI capabilities to refine risk identification and improve legal reasoning.
- Expand across Europe by growing its commercial team and forming strategic partnerships.
- Develop new features aimed at fully automating legal due diligence and eliminating manual work.
Investors include Syndicate One, a Belgian founder-led fund backing early-stage tech startups, along with business angels such as Matthias Geeroms (Lighthouse), Jeroen De Wit (Teamleader), Roeland Delrue (Aikido), Michiel Bearelle (Officient, Vendorvue), Kris Moeremans (Intersentia), Marc Coppens (Yuki), Koen Vandaele (Deloitte), Anthony De Clerck (Dovesco), Michiel Denis (Aikido, former Henchman), and others.
“We believe Jurimesh is charting a new path in legal tech at a time when the market is increasingly eager for AI-driven solutions,” said Hans Kayaert of Syndicate One. “While legal AI has so far largely focused on broad horizontal applications, Jorrit and Jasper impressed us with their sharp focus on perfecting the specific task of legal due diligence — demonstrating the next chapter in the evolution of legal AI.”
