Platform expansion empowers firms to deliver data-backed deal guidance in seconds
NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / November 12, 2025 / Draftwise, an AI contract and negotiation platform for lawyers, today announced the expansion of its platform into Contract Intelligence with the launch of Deal Table, turning a firm’s historical deals into live, actionable market intelligence.
Traditional legal technology primarily focuses on managing stored documents and automating tasks. Contract intelligence goes further, extracting, structuring, and analyzing a firm’s precedent so lawyers can make faster, data-backed decisions – from drafting and review to negotiation strategy and client advisory.
“We’re witnessing a massive transformation in the legal profession,” said James Ding, CEO and founder of Draftwise. “The firms that will win in the next decade will be the ones that activate their precedent, making it searchable, analyzable, and actionable with AI. Draftwise is the intelligence layer on top of your deal history, turning legal data into strategic advantage.”
Ding will announce the category expansion and preview the product updates on stage at the TLTF Summit in Austin, Texas, today.
The evolution from contract drafting to Contract Intelligence
Draftwise has developed a comprehensive solution for contract drafting and review, enabling lawyers to transition from manual searching to automated, data-driven workflows using their firm’s precedent. But as lawyers have integrated the platform into their practice, they’ve increasingly turned to it for deeper strategic insights.
“We’ve successfully deployed contract-specific workflows using firm precedent,” said Will Seaton, Draftwise Chief Customer Officer, “but lawyers told us they wanted more. They want to understand ‘what’s market’ across thousands of deals to guide negotiations. They want to identify patterns, risks, and trends to anticipate client needs and proactively provide advice and guidance. They want to not only access institutional knowledge quickly, but to build on their data foundation continually, with greater and greater knowledge as a firm or a legal team.”
Legal teams can now use Draftwise to understand market standards across thousands of deals, identify emerging risks and negotiation patterns, and access their firm’s collective wisdom instantly-whether they’re actively working in a contract or advising a client on deal strategy.
