Courtroom Raises Pre-seed

Courtroom, based in New York, is a legal technology startup that provides an AI simulation platform for litigation and trial teams. The company has officially emerged from stealth mode and announced its pre-seed funding round to support the deployment of its platform, which offers real-time juror and judge perspectives for case development.

This round was led by Neo and Precursor Ventures. Additional participants included Rel Labs, the investment arm of Relativity, along with strategic angel investors including Craig Glidden, Scott Mozarsky, Doak Bishop, members of technical staff at OpenAI, Baretz+Brunelle, and LexFusion.

The company plans to use the capital to support the ongoing development and scaling of its AI jury and judge simulation platform for legal professionals.

Founded by Elizabeth Grabowski Parikh and Dan Gallipeau, Courtroom builds AI simulation technology designed to help litigation teams test arguments, witnesses, and case narratives. The platform enables legal teams to gain continuous, real-world feedback from simulated judges and jurors from the early stages of a case through trial.
