Formerly known as Xayn, the AI startup Noxtua has raised$92.2 million in a Series B round to expand its sovereign AI platform for the legal sector.

The company, which began as a privacy-focused mobile AI app, now specialises in providing legally compliant AI tools for law firms and legal departments in Germany.

The funding round was led by C.H. Beck, Germany's top legal publisher, which also supplies Noxtua with access to its vast legal database of 55 million documents.

Other investors include Northern Data Group, CMS, and Dentons. Noxtua's legal AI tool, Beck-Noxtua, will be hosted exclusively on German infrastructure provided by Northern Data to ensure data sovereignty and compliance.

Built from research at Oxford and Imperial College London, Noxtua's technology is tailored to the complex legal frameworks of Germany and continental Europe.

CEO Dr Leif-Nissen Lundb?k emphasised that American-trained AI models often fail to meet the precision and compliance standards required in Germany, making localised AI solutions vital.
