Real-time contract enforcement is a game-changer
With the as-a-service economy growing beyond $30T in annual spend, analog CLM software’s ability to track against contracted outcomes has come under increased pressure.

With operational data sitting in silos and invoice validation being mostly manual, enterprises have become accustomed to, or in many cases unaware of, 15-20% leakages, thanks to consumption and invoicing errors, missed deliverables, claims and disputes, which translate into a massive $2-3T lost per year.
