Agiloft Named a Newsweek AI Impact Award Finalist for Transforming Contract Management with AI

This award recognizes Agiloft's innovation and leadership in artificial intelligence, specifically for its AI CLM platform built with AI on the inside™

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Agiloft, a leader in data-first contract lifecycle management (CLM), today announced that it has been named one of the finalists of the Newsweek AI Impact Awards 2025. The accolade, presented by Newsweek, celebrates organizations that are driving exceptional impact through the strategic and ethical use of artificial intelligence technologies.

The Newsweek AI Impact Awards (the "AI Impact Awards") honor organizations that leverage AI technology to address critical business challenges across various industries. These awards highlight innovations that significantly enhance capabilities and demonstrate measurable impacts on business operations.

"Agiloft is the first CLM platform built with AI on the inside™, and that is by design," said Eric Laughlin, CEO at Agiloft. "We are focused on building AI with a balance of power and process transparency that leads to adoption. This recognition from Newsweek confirms that we are on the right track, and reflects the incredible work our team has done to make AI real, responsible, and part of everyday decision-making."

Agiloft's AI on the inside™ approach sets it apart in a crowded market of surface-level AI features. Unlike other solutions, which offer AI as a bolt-on, or even as a driving force that overshadows core CLM capabilities, Agiloft provides fully-configurable AI at every step of the contract lifecycle. From data-driven assessments that cut as much as 80% out of initial reviews, to GenAI agents that drive instantaneous approval cycles, to near immediate analyses of hundreds of contracts to uncover hidden risk, Agiloft accelerates business, improves visibility, and optimizes processes. And, uniquely in the industry, these efficiency-boosting capabilities are provided as a core part of the CLM solution, not as an optional extra.

"AI is reshaping our world, and the organizations receiving this award are at the forefront of that transformation," said Jennifer H. Cunningham, editor-in-chief of Newsweek. "We are proud to spotlight the companies whose technologies and practices are pushing the boundaries of what AI can achieve—responsibly and effectively."

Agiloft earned recognition with its unique AI capabilities that address the difficulty many organizations face in tailoring AI outputs for specialized tasks. With Agiloft, customers can tailor AI-powered workflows to fit their specific needs. With white box AI capabilities and the ability to streamline clause management within Prompt Lab – enhanced with Agiloft's Screens, which introduces intelligent contract review and negotiation – Agiloft's AI solutions empower legal teams to streamline operations, automate manual tasks, and leverage intelligent data-rich insights from contracts at scale.
