Stilta builds AI-powered patent analysis software for IP teams to automate research and discovery of owned patents.
$10.5MSeed
A10M seed for patent automation signals that IP teams are finally willing to pay for AI tooling to replace manual grunt work—this is less about market timing and more about the category maturing past skepticism. Stilta's likely burning this on product depth (handling complex patent taxonomies), sales to in-house counsel, and probably some enterprise integrations. If you're building any workflow automation for knowledge workers (contracts, compliance, research), watch how Stilta prices and sells: legal teams are notoriously sticky once you own their process, so their GTM playbook matters more than the product itself.
