The funding comes nearly a year after the company raised $54 million in its Series B round in February 2025. Earlier in March 2023, the firm secured $26 million in its Series A funding round.

It currently serves nearly 50,000 monthly active users, processing over one million contracts annually. SpotDraft recently demonstrated its on-device contract review capabilities at Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit 2025, where its AI models ran locally on Snapdragon X Elite laptops without cloud connectivity. SpotDraft competes with other legaltech startups like Legistify, Leegality, Sirion, Vakilsearch, and others. Its customers include Apollo.io, Panasonic, Zeplin, and Whatfix. In FY25, SpotDraft’s revenue grew to Rs 121.02 crore from Rs 59.58 crore in FY24, while losses widened to Rs 121.43 crore from Rs 68.36 crore over the same period.
