Norm AI raised a $120M Series C at $1.2B for legal and compliance agents that draft documents and run litigation prep under attorney supervision, claiming asset managers overseeing about $30T in AUM already use it. Agave took $15M for construction-finance agents the same week. The pattern is consistent: narrow, workflow-specific agents in unglamorous, high-consequence verticals are where the capital is going, not general assistants.
