Mercia has backed the employee benefits platform with a £750k injection from its EIS funds.
"There is increasing demand from employee benefits consultancies for a simple, easy-to-use and affordable technology platform that allows them to deliver employee benefit services to their clients more efficiently."
The London-based marketplace secured backing from btov Partners to scale its digital renovation platform across the UK.
"We have been focused on building a platform for home renovation that not only serves an imminent need but will deliver even more value as we scale.

"Since meeting Patrick and the Sano team, we have been consistently impressed with their unwavering purpose-led strategy to promote access to, and the success of, personalised medicine. To deliver on the promise of this new approach to treatment, there is an urgent need to solve the largest problems in clinical trials: patient recruitment and engagement. This is where Sano’s innovative software platform, which allows them to interact directly with patients, biotech and broader healthcare communities, can be transformational for the future of personalised medicine."
The legal tech startup has closed a seed round led by Pragmatech Ventures to fund international expansion and product development.
"The legal review market has moved away from simple data extraction, to solutions that provide end-to-end support of the entire legal review process. AI has moved up the value chain in legal, and users just don't want to use pre-trained, customized AI, due to the time it takes to train those models and the cost involved in doing that. Larger transfer learning-based models, like Della's, are replacing those legacy solutions, and we are enabling lawyers to use AI to help with more and more complex tasks."
