Grubel, an AI research lab based in Munich and Tübingen, has secured €3 million in pre-Seed funding to develop systems that adapt to individual legal cases. The investment was led by Point Nine, with contributions from angel investors such as Jeff Dean, Chris Ré, Ion Stoica, and Gabe Pereyra. Grubel's co-founder, Reinhard Heckel, explained that complex legal matters lack standardized training data and evaluation methods, prompting the company to automate the AI specialisation process.
This process involves gathering relevant information, adapting the system to the specific legal matter, and testing its work against required standards. Founded by machine-learning researchers Moritz Hardt and Heckel, Grubel aims to create AI systems that can adapt to each unique legal matter, rather than relying on general-purpose models.
The company's specialisation loop comprises a data engine, a test-time adaptation layer, and a continual evaluation framework. Grubel believes that their approach can unlock new capabilities in legal AI and other complex knowledge work.
