Key Takeaways:

  • $23M funding accelerates adoption of Checkbox’s AI Legal Front Door across enterprises.
  • Platform automates legal intake and routine workflows from tools like email, Slack, and Salesforce.
  • Customers report major efficiency gains, including high automation rates for routine legal requests.

Checkbox, a legal technology company automating legal intake and service delivery for enterprises, announced a $23 million funding round led by Touring Capital with participation from Peak XV, Conductive Ventures, Tidal Ventures, Five V Capital, and angel investors including Jerry Ting. The funding supports expansion of the AI Legal Front Door, designed to replace fragmented, manual legal intake with automated, intelligent workflows across organizations.

Rising legal demand and limited headcount continue to strain legal teams, while requests arrive through unstructured channels that reduce visibility and consume time on low-value work. Checkbox addresses this challenge by capturing legal requests directly from tools already used across the business, including email, Slack, Teams, Salesforce, and intranet portals. AI Agents convert conversations into workflows covering contract drafting, conflict approvals, and routine requests, while complex matters are routed to legal teams for direct management.

We’ve seen tremendous demand for the Legal Front Door and the market is really resonating with how we’ve uniquely solved this problem,” said Evan Wong, Co-founder and CEO of Checkbox. “Our customers go from operating in the dark and spending time on things they shouldn’t be, to working on what matters and getting visibility into demand, workload, and cycle times, which enables them to do better resource planning and demonstrate their value to the business.

The Series A funding will fuel Checkbox’s vision to build a system of intelligence for legal work, turning everyday requests into institutional expertise,” said James Han, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Checkbox. “This institutional expertise can then be leveraged by AI to help teams move faster, deliver more consistent work, and reduce dependency on outside counsel.

Checkbox is used by more than 100 enterprise organizations, including SAP, PepsiCo, and multiple Fortune 500 companies, to streamline legal intake and reduce administrative overhead. At Hitachi, 83% of routine legal and compliance requests are now partially or fully automated.
