  • UAE-based regtech Qanooni has raised $2 million in a pre-seed round led by Village Global, Oryx Fund by Salica Investments, TA Ventures, and strategic angels.
  • Founded in 2024 by Anuscha Iqbal, Ziyaad Ahmed, and Karim Shiyab, Qanooni is building a seamless AI-powered legal platform that integrates into Microsoft Outlook and Word, enabling lawyers to draft, review, and manage documents using AI that adapts to their writing style and internal standards.
  • The new funding will fuel Qanooni’s expansion across the UAE and UK, and enhance its proprietary legal AI engine, reinforcing its role in driving the future of legal automation across MENA and Europe.

Press release:

Qanooni, a UAE-based legal technology startup, has announced the successful closure of a $2 million pre-seed funding round, backed by global and regional investors including Village Global, Salica Investments’ Oryx Fund, TA Ventures, and a network of strategic angel investors.

Founded by Anuscha Iqbal, Ziyaad Ahmed, and Karim Shiyab, Qanooni is developing a transformative AI-powered platform built specifically for legal professionals. Unlike traditional LegalTech tools, Qanooni integrates directly into the software that lawyers already rely on—Microsoft Outlook and Word—eliminating the friction of switching platforms or adopting new workflows.

Qanooni’s solution enables law firms and legal departments to prepare and review documents faster and more accurately, seamlessly connect with document management systems, and benefit from generative AI that mimics a lawyer’s tone, writing style, and internal standards.

The newly raised capital will be used to accelerate Qanooni’s expansion across the UAE and UK markets while also advancing its proprietary AI engine tailored to legal workflows.

The round also drew support from notable individual investors, including Ben Casnocha, Sri Batchu, Josh Rodger, Viktoriya Tigipko, Andrew Verbitsky, Jimmy Stone, Nicholas Nottebohm, CFA, Ashish Shetty, and Miguel Rodrigues.

With growing investor interest in regtech solutions that streamline productivity without disrupting existing digital environments, Qanooni is positioning itself at the forefront of the AI-driven transformation in legal services across MENA and Europe.
