Stockholm-based Stilta has raised $10.5 million in new funding, the company announced on 19 May 2026. The round was led by Andreessen Horowitz, with participation from Y Combinator and founders and operators from AI companies including Sana, Legora, OpenAI, Lovable and Listen Labs.
Founded in 2026, Stilta develops agentic AI software for patent enforcement, defense, and commercialization. Its platform is designed to help companies analyze patents, scientific literature, and archived web content to surface evidence for patent litigation, competitive intelligence, and licensing work.
The funding comes just months after the company’s February launch. Stilta said it has already signed enterprises including Roche, Alfa Laval and Maersk, along with three of the world’s five largest IP firms, as customers or active pilot users.
Stilta said it will use the capital to make its first hires beyond its four founders, building out engineering, go-to-market, and patent expert teams across Stockholm and New York.
