Laurel, the AI billing pioneer, has received strategic investment from Workday Ventures – the $500m investment arm of Workday (which recently bought contract AI company Evisort). The move comes as Laurel seeks to widen its customer reach. It is already growing far beyond the legal sector and this move will help.
As part of the Workday Ventures investment, Laurel will become a Workday Innovation Partner, ‘joining a community of innovators delivering AI capabilities to customers’.
You can see more about Laurel in this special AL interview here. Laurel also recently gained $100m in fresh funding prior to this news.
The sum invested by Workday was not disclosed.
Kourosh Zamani, co-founder and head of partnerships at Laurel, said: ‘We’re thrilled to be joining the Workday Innovation Partner network,” said. “Workday’s focus on shaping the future of work aligns with our mission to make time more valuable for professionals and their organizations.’
Barbry McGann, managing director and senior vice president, Workday Ventures, added: ‘AI has the potential to revolutionize how organizations manage time so that their people are focused on the most strategic work, helping drive better employee satisfaction and productivity. We are excited to invest in and partner with Laurel, supporting their mission of innovating to help customers make the most out of their employees’ time, delivering real value for businesses.’
