# Wordsmith AI

> Wordsmith is a legal AI company building the operations platform for in-house legal teams.

Founded by former lawyer Ross McNairn and headquartered in Edinburgh, the company raised a $70m Series B in June 2026 (bringing total funding to $100m) and serves more than 500 companies including BT, Canva, Financial Times, Sage, Trip.com and Starling.
