Who Invested

The Series A round was led by Semapa Next, with NRW.BANK participating as a co-investor through its venture capital fund NRW.Venture, contributing €3 million . Existing investors Acton Capital and High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF) also increased their stakes . Including this round, JUPUS has raised more than €20 million in total funding .

What JUPUS Does

Multiple sources describe JUPUS as Europe's first AI secretarial service for law firms — an AI-powered "secretariat" purpose-built for the legal profession . The platform automates a chain of tasks that previously required human legal assistants :

• Client intake via AI chatbot on law firm websites
• Appointment scheduling
• Document creation
• Case management

The Market Problem

The Series A announcement cites a stark trend: over the past three decades, the number of newly trained legal assistants in Germany has declined by more than 70%, while the number of practising lawyers has tripled and administrative workloads have continued to increase . This staffing shortage is the core market gap JUPUS addresses, particularly for small and mid-sized firms .

Platform Impact — Company Claims

JUPUS reports the following platform metrics, which are company-claimed and not independently audited :

• Saves law firms over 70 working hours per month
• Used by more than 2,000 lawyers
• Processes more than 2,000 new legal cases daily

2025 Growth Metrics

In 2025, JUPUS reported strong growth across key metrics :

• Quadrupled annual recurring revenue (ARR)
• Tripled headcount
• More than doubled user base
• More than doubled cases processed

Expansion Plans

The new capital will be used to expand AI capabilities and strengthen JUPUS's presence among small and mid-sized law firms across Europe . The company is also targeting international growth, with mentions of a London expansion as part of its broader European push .

Source Notes

• Tech.eu and Vestbee provide the most comprehensive English-language write-ups containing nearly all the metrics in one place .
• Startbase, JUVE (a major German legal industry publication), and IT Boltwise offer strong German-language coverage .
• NRW.BANK's own disclosure via Longbridge confirms the €3 million tranche .
• All impact and growth figures are company-claimed in the announcement; no independent third-party audit of the metrics was reported.

No contradictions were found across sources — all reports are consistent on every figure and name cited above.
