Digip digitizes much of the process, helping its customers file trademarks by themselves instead of going to law firms.
The Stockholm-based legaltech startup announced it has added $1.3 million to its seed round, bringing the total to $3.4 million. The new funding was led by Industrifonden and Seed X, with participation from family offices and angel investors.
Co-founder and CEO Viktor Johansson says that Digip was founded after its team saw that entrepreneurs are reluctant to use traditional law firms that bill by the hour.
To file trademarks, businesses usually ask a lawyer to conduct trademark searches. They are billed per search, which adds up quickly if a business has multiple brands they need to trademark.
