The raise signals a bet on AI that embeds transcript analysis inside everyday litigation work.

Overview

  • Steno, which announced a $49 million Series C on Thursday, said Savano Capital Partners led the round with backing from First Round Capital and The Legal Tech Fund.
  • The company said the new money will triple investment in geographic expansion and speed the next version of Transcript Genius, its AI transcript analysis tool.
