BENGALURU – Legal technology startup Nyayanidhi has raised $2 million (about Rs 17 crore) in seed funding led by venture capital firm 3one4 Capital, with participation from DeVC, PeerCheque, Force Ventures and angel investors including Nishchay Ag, Co-founder of Jar.
The Bengaluru-based company said the funds will be used to strengthen its AI infrastructure, expand its advocate network, deepen government partnerships and scale operations across more states.
Founded in 2024 by Adithya LHS, Chakshu Masagali and Pratik Pany, Nyayanidhi is building a digital platform that uses artificial intelligence and automation to make legal documentation, translation and filings faster and more reliable.
The company said its goal is to create an operating system for India‘s litigation ecosystem by improving speed, predictability and transparency in legal processes.
“We are building Nyayanidhi as the digital infrastructure for litigation in India, a platform that brings speed, predictability and accountability to legal work,” said Adithya LHS, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder of Nyayanidhi.
He said the company combines AI with human legal expertise to “help clients reach resolutions swiftly and with greater confidence”.
India’s legal system currently has over 50 million pending cases and about 20 million new filings each year, according to the National Judicial Data Grid. While eCourts and other digitisation projects have introduced reforms, much of the work continues through paper-based processes.
Nyayanidhi said its platform provides “AI-native infrastructure” to streamline workflows and reduce case preparation time.
Sonal Saldanha, Principal at 3one4 Capital, said Nyayanidhi was “addressing a real gap in India’s legal ecosystem” by focusing on measurable results and making litigation more reliable.
The company said it has completed pilots inside High Courts and enterprise partnerships and processed thousands of litigation cases. Operating from within the High Court of Karnataka, Nyayanidhi provides multilingual drafting and filing support, which it said has reduced preparation timelines from weeks to days in select matters.
Nyayanidhi plans to use the funding to advance its technology and expand its reach as it works to make India’s litigation process more efficient and accessible.
