Copenhagen-based legal tech firm SmallClaims, which develops an AI-powered platform to automate small-claims litigation, has raised €2 million in a seed round led by Vendep Capital, as Vestbee was informed.
- Founded in 2021 by Christian Olson, SmallClaims has developed a platform that uses AI agents to manage the entire litigation process, from legal assessment and settlement to filing, judgment and enforcement.
- The platform has reduced manual case handling time from more than 15 hours to around 1.5 hours per case. The company’s legal team currently reviews the agents’ work and appears in court when cases remain unresolved before a hearing.
- SmallClaims serves more than 500 customers, including debt collection agencies, law firms and businesses handling large volumes of outstanding invoices. In 2025, the company processed more than 3,200 cases, with case intake growing by over 370% between 2023 and 2025. The company reports a win rate of more than 90%.
Details of the deal
- With the fresh capital, SmallClaims plans to further develop its AI platform, expand into additional European markets and grow its team in Copenhagen.
- The company aims to make litigation over smaller claims more cost-effective by automating legal work that would otherwise require significant time and resources.
