With backing from Chicago Ventures, OnDean Forward, and The LegalTech Fund, Entegrata sets out to revolutionize how law firms leverage data to drive decision-making.
INDIANAPOLIS, IN – March 18th, 9 a.m. ET – Entegrata, a legal technology innovator transforming how law firms manage and utilize data, announced today that it has closed its seed round, bringing the company to $4.5M in total funding. The round was led by Chicago Ventures with participation from OnDean Forward (investment vehicle of Relativity founder and former executives) and The LegalTech Fund. This funding milestone brings together a powerful group of industry leaders with deep expertise in legal technology and data-driven innovation.
Solving the Legal Industry’s Data Crisis
The legal industry faces growing pressure to modernize and leverage data for decision-making. However, many law firms continue to rely on custom-built/fragmented systems and outdated reporting tools that hinder their ability to respond to client needs and market changes. Data silos, manual reporting processes, and increasing client demands have made the need for a centralized, modern data platform more urgent than ever.
Entegrata is addressing this challenge with its Azure-based data lakehouse—a secure, turnkey, scalable platform designed to centralize, normalize, and streamline firm-wide data into a single source of truth. This powerful solution empowers law firms to gain real-time insights across financial performance, client outcomes, and operational efficiency. With pre-built Power BI templates and rapid deployment capabilities, Entegrata allows firms to streamline reporting and unlock meaningful insights in weeks, rather than the months or years typically required by traditional systems. As the platform evolves, firms can expect even deeper intelligence powered by AI—helping them move beyond static reports to predictive analytics and data-driven decision-making at scale.
“Law firms today are under immense pressure to become data-driven, yet most still rely on outdated, legacy systems not designed to handle the requirements of modern law firms,” said Tom Baldwin, CEO of Entegrata. “Our platform consolidates that data and transforms it into actionable insights—making complex data simple and driving better decision-making across the firm.”
“Law firms have data scattered across countless systems, making it nearly impossible to create a single source of truth. While AI is already transforming legal work, its impact on the business of law has been largely untapped—until now.” said Mike Kolb, COO at Dickinson Wright and an early adopter of Entegrata. “As we work with Entegrata, we see the potential to bring firm-wide data together and leverage AI to answer critical business questions in real time. What once felt like a distant vision—interacting with data as easily as having a conversation—is quickly becoming a reality.”
“The legal industry is undergoing a significant transformation as firms increasingly look to AI-driven insights to optimize operations, enhance profitability, and improve client outcomes. Entegrata's unique approach delivers a purpose-built platform that addresses the industry's unique challenges—siloed data, complex financials, and competitive pressures.” said Bart Czernicki, Strategic AI Advisor. “Powered by a centralized Azure data lakehouse, it accelerates AI adoption with less internal effort, unlocking insights faster and more efficiently.”
Backing from Industry-Leading Partners
The investment reflects strong confidence from leading B2B software and legal tech investors. Chicago Ventures led the round, recognizing Entegrata’s unique market opportunity and the team’s deep understanding of the legal sector.
“Tom and the Entegrata team are addressing a major gap in legal tech—helping firms unlock the full potential of their data,” said Eric Duboe, Partner at Chicago Ventures. “Tom’s extensive industry expertise and first-hand understanding of customer pain points make Entegrata uniquely positioned to lead this transformation.”
OnDean Forward, investment vehicle of Relativity founder and former executives, has been a key strategic partner since Entegrata’s inception, providing funding, critical guidance and operational support.
“We are proud to support Entegrata in its vision to be the single source of truth for the data law firms need to empower their critical business decisions and to enable AI-driven workflows. As firms increasingly rely on technology, Entegrata is setting the new standard for trusted, actionable insights,” said Andrew Sieja, Founder of Relativity and CEO of OnDean.
Additionally, The LegalTech Fund brings deep relationships across law firms and the broader legal tech ecosystem. As a recognized leader in legal innovation, The LegalTech Fund not only invests in transformative legal technology but also convenes top industry executives and thought leaders through its annual industry-leading TLTF Summit.
Expanding the Vision for Legal Data Transformation
This funding will enable Entegrata to accelerate product development, expand AI-powered analytics capabilities, and scale its go-to-market strategy. The company plans to deepen partnerships with leading law firms and enhance its platform to support advanced AI applications—helping firms scale AI-powered analytics for operational efficiency, enhance financial reporting, and unlock new insights across both the business and practice of law.
As demand for modern, data-driven solutions grows within the legal industry, Entegrata is well-positioned to become the platform of choice for law firms seeking to modernize their data infrastructure to leverage AI to make better and more informed decisions and stay competitive in an evolving market.
