LinkSquares Debuts Industry-First AI-Native CLM for Dynamic Contract Execution


LinkSquares Debuts Industry-First AI-Native CLM for Dynamic Contract Execution

LinkSquares, the leader in AI-powered contract lifecycle management (CLM), has announced a fundamental rebuild of its platform. Moving from a traditional "system of record" to a dynamic system of execution, the new AI-native architecture is designed to handle the actual work of drafting and redlining rather than just analyzing static text.

By rebuilding the platform from the ground up rather than layering AI onto legacy code, LinkSquares allows autonomous agents to operate across the entire contract lifecycle—from intake through renewals—while keeping legal teams in a high-level oversight role.

Quick Intel

  • AI-Native Architecture: Powered by LinkAI, the platform is purpose-built for agentic workflows, moving beyond simple text analysis to active task execution.

  • Rapid Redlining: Early access customers report that complex reviews and redlining tasks that previously took hours are now completed in approximately two minutes.

  • Legal Front Door: Enables non-legal teams to use self-service tools within pre-defined legal guardrails, accelerating deal cycles without increasing risk.

  • Trust & Transparency: Every AI-generated output is backed by citations and structured data, ensuring that high-stakes legal decisions remain auditable.

  • Market Reach: Trusted by over 1,200 organizations, including major brands like DraftKings, TIME, and ProPharma.

Moving Beyond "Static" Storage

Most CLM platforms act as digital filing cabinets that require humans to manually act on the insights they find. LinkSquares’ new agentic platform changes this by acting on the contracts. Agents can now draft new agreements, redline incoming documents based on company playbooks, and research clause libraries automatically.

"The next phase of AI in CLM will move beyond helping customers work faster to AI driving the execution," said Bill Hewitt, CEO of LinkSquares. "Our new platform... gives customers access to capabilities they have never seen before to ultimately deliver greater impact and value faster."

Key Capabilities of the New Platform

The platform is designed to eliminate the common friction points in the contract lifecycle:

  • AI Legal Assistant: Automatically applies clause libraries and playbooks to incoming contracts, reducing hours of manual labor to minutes.

  • Connected Workflows: Contract data serves as a trigger for downstream actions, such as obligation tracking and renewal alerts, within a single flow.

  • Citation-Backed Research: Provides full transparency for AI insights, allowing legal professionals to verify the "why" behind suggested language.

  • Low Friction Adoption: Designed for fast implementation, the platform allows both legal and non-legal teams to start work without heavy training or complex setups.

Rebuilding for the AI Era

LinkSquares Chief Product Officer Andrew Leverone noted that layering AI onto old systems often compounds existing problems. "We took a different approach by rebuilding the platform so that AI can operate across the entire contract lifecycle, planning and executing work inside of the system instead of generating outputs that someone has to act on."

For in-house legal teams, this shift represents a move toward consistency and accuracy at scale, allowing General Counsel to focus on strategic value rather than repetitive administrative tasks.
