Belgium-based Alice, an AI platform for lawyers and legal teams, has raised €1 million in pre-seed funding in a round led by NewSchool and Seeder Fund.
The round also included participation from a group of Belgian angel investors.
Alice was launched in June 2025 by practising lawyers Jeroen Villé and Armin Wintein, together with CTO Joren Coulier. The platform is already in active use by multiple law firms in Belgium.
Alice develops an AI platform built around legal workflows that emphasises usability, verification, traceability and professional accountability. It is structured as a continuous workflow in which each stage informs the next and supports the full process, from document analysis and legal research to argument development and the preparation of client communications and court-ready materials within a single, unified environment.
With the pre-seed funding, Alice plans to accelerate development of its core legal workflow, expand its team and customer support operations, and pursue geographic growth beginning in Belgium and extending to the Netherlands and France.
“We believe AI can have a lasting role in legal practice only if lawyers can fully trust it and maintain control over their cases. Alice is designed to help legal teams work more efficiently and consistently, without the risks associated with unverified outputs.” Jeroen Villé, co-founder and CEO of Alice, said.
