Patent law is a discipline of dual mastery—attorneys must understand both complex legal frameworks and the technical details of the inventions they're protecting. Until recently, it wasn’t feasible to build solutions capable of understanding advanced topics ranging from semiconductor designs to pharmaceutical formulas. The paradigm has shifted, and AI has revolutionized what's possible.

Today, we're excited to share two significant updates for &AI: our $6.5M seed round led by First Round Capital, and the introduction of Andy, the first AI agent for patent attorneys.

At its core, &AI is professional-grade AI designed for patent attorneys. Our mission is to transform how attorneys work, providing powerful tools for end-to-end prosecution and litigation workflows. We've built a secure, collaborative platform to support attorneys with complex tasks like drafting claim charts, invalidity contentions, and office action responses.

Unlike traditional AI assistants that simply follow instructions, Andy adapts dynamically to context, making intelligent decisions about how to best support attorneys in their work. We're confident that agentic AI will unlock new levels of productivity, allowing attorneys to focus on the strategic work that matters most.

This vision is backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, BoxGroup, SV Angel, and incredible angels Kulveer Taggar, JJ Fliegelman, and Rich Aberman. Their support will help us expand our platform's capabilities, grow our excellent team, and engineer the future of patent law.
