## The Problem

Prior art searches for Commercial Contracts matters take days in Ironclad, and the attorney still has to read every hit to judge relevance.

## What We Build in Agiloft

AI runs the search across USPTO, EPO, and Ironclad, ranks hits by claim-overlap relevance, summarizes each, and builds the search report — attorney starts from a triaged list, not a raw dump. Purpose-built for teams running Agiloft — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## Agiloft Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Agiloft configuration.** We map the specific Agiloft objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your commercial contracts practice.
2. **Build on the Agiloft API or agent.** Integration happens inside Agiloft — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Agiloft with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
