Thomson Reuters Ventures Makes First Brazil Bet in Jusfy Round

Brazilian legaltech startup Jusfy has raised a $15 million Series A funding round led by fintech-focused venture capital firm Quona Capital. The transaction marks a major milestone as Thomson Reuters Ventures makes its first-ever investment in a Brazilian startup. Other participants in the oversubscribed round include Spectra Investments, LegalTech Fund, FJ Labs, and Maya Capital.

The fresh capital will be deployed to expand Jusfy Pay, the startup's dedicated financial services arm designed to streamline payments and credit options for lawyers. Additionally, the company plans to accelerate the development of its proprietary legal artificial intelligence solutions and roll out a specialized version of its platform for law students. The investment highlights growing international interest to invest in Brazil as global players look to capitalize on the country's rapidly modernizing legal and financial technology sectors.

For global investors tracking the Latin American tech ecosystem, this strategic move by Thomson Reuters (NYSE: TRI) underscores the accelerating demand for AI-driven legal operating systems. By consolidating court monitoring, legal calculations, and financial services into a single platform, Jusfy addresses systemic inefficiencies in one of the world's largest and most complex legal markets.

The deal comes amid steady activity in the broader Brazilian digital asset and technology space. In local cryptocurrency markets today, Bitcoin is trading at BTC/BRL 334,788, while Ethereum stands at ETH/BRL 9,748.59.
