# Norm AI raises $120M Series C, hits $1.2B unicorn valuation

> Norm AI has raised $120 million in Series C funding at a $1.2 billion valuation, led by Khosla Ventures with participation from Bain, Craft Ventures, Coatue, Vanguard, and a roster of financial institutions. The round pushes the company's total funding past $260 million and cements its place among the more richly valued legal AI startups. What sets Norm apart from generic legal chatbots is its structure. The company has built an AI-native law firm, Norm Law, where human attorneys supervise fleets of AI agents handling work for enterprise clients. That supervised model is designed to bring the compliance and accountability regulated customers demand, rather than letting an unmonitored model give legal advice. The fresh capital will fund hiring, new practice areas, and further work on supervisory agents for regulated deployments. It reflects a broader thesis taking hold in enterprise AI, the winning products in high-stakes fields will not remove humans, but reorganize the work around them, with people accountable for what the agents produce.
