Henchman, a Ghent, Belgium-based contract drafting startup, announced that it has secured an additional €2M funding to close its Seed round at €3M. The funding comes nine months after securing €1M while announcing its launch.
The funding was led by Pitchdrive, along with the participation from private investors like Wim De Waele (Partner at Miles Ahead), Frederik Vandermarliere (CEO of VCF Cigars), and members of its own management team.
Gilles Mattelin, co-founder of Henchman, says, “Since Henchman requires no set-up and updates automatically, customers can immediately start repurposing thousands, even millions of clauses based on relevant suggestions. There’s an immediate added value in terms of efficiency and speed. Our goal is to enable lawyers to spend more time on high-value tasks that can set them apart from their competitors.”
