We’re excited to welcome Wexler, one of the newest members of The LegalTech Fund family, fresh off their $5.3M seed round led by Pear VC, alongside Seedcamp and TLTF. In this episode, Gordon Crenshaw sits down with Gregory Mostyn from Wexler to unpack how the team built a fact-intelligence platform that’s redefining litigation workflows. From early traction and customer development to scaling across global firms, Wexler’s story is a masterclass in going deep, not broad, in legal AI. We dive into how they’re solving complex disputes at a factual level, what’s working in the market, what’s not, and what it really takes to scale an AI-native product in litigation.  Watch the full conversation via the link in comments👇 #TheLegalTechFund

Last week we unpacked Burn Rate. This week, we’re zooming in on Gross vs Net Burn, the signal VCs and legaltech founders use to judge endurance, momentum, and when to press the raise button. Swipe to see how these metrics shape pricing, hiring, and runway in a market with long cycles and complex procurement. What’s your benchmark for a healthy burn in 2025? 🔥 #TheLegalTechFund

For years, legal teams have been told that “efficiency” is the goal. But as Tom Dreyfus, Co-Founder and CEO of Josef, explains in our In Studio session, efficiency alone isn’t the measure that matters, time saved is. Josef’s north star is simple: help legal and compliance teams reclaim time. Every minute saved through automation translates into higher-value work, lower outside counsel spend, and space for strategic thinking. It’s the difference between firefighting and building. What’s driving adoption isn’t just AI, it’s trust. Josef’s platform gives lawyers control over how AI behaves, learns, and responds. This “legal control layer” resolves one of the biggest tensions in legaltech today: how to combine automation with the profession’s deep instinct for risk management. Tom also shared a powerful product insight. Josef stopped trying to be everything for everyone. By going narrow, focusing on specific workflows like Q&A, document generation, and intake, they scaled faster, proved ROI sooner, and built deeper credibility with customers. It’s a reminder that the future of legaltech isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing the right things better, with tools teams actually trust to deliver. How are you measuring impact in your legal or compliance function, efficiency, adoption, or time saved? 👇 #TheLegalTechFund

The 2025 State of AI Report marks a turning point. What began as a race for research dominance has matured into full-scale industrialization. Multi-gigawatt data centers, sovereign-backed compute, and AI-first startups growing 1.5X faster than peers, this is AI entering its infrastructure phase. There is competition internationally, from America’s OpenAI leading the frontier, to China’s DeepSeek, Qwen, and Kimi. Meanwhile, reasoning has become the new benchmark, models that can plan, reflect, and self-correct over long time horizons. The takeaway? AI isn’t just augmenting human capability anymore; it’s institutionalizing it. The winners will be those who build durable systems, not incremental breakthroughs.

We’ve mistaken motion for momentum. In a world flooded with tools, notifications, and dashboards, the firms winning with AI aren’t doing more, they’re doing less, better. They’re using technology to protect focus, not fragment it. To create space for deep work, not just faster work. As Cal Newport writes, real productivity means doing fewer things, at a natural pace, and obsessing over quality. Are we building tech that accelerates busyness or one that amplifies focus? #TheLegalTechFund

“You don’t bring your data to AI, you bring AI to your data.” 💡 In our latest In Studio episode, Ted Theodoropoulos from Infodash breaks down one of the biggest mindset shifts happening in legaltech. Firms can’t rely on off-the-shelf tools alone. The real advantage comes from using their own institutional data, the cases, outcomes, and insights that make them unique, to build smarter, more differentiated client experiences. Watch the full conversation on how Infodash is helping firms turn data into their biggest competitive edge. 🚀
