Smarter Contract Import in Repository [ICM]

The contract import experience has been redesigned to:

  • Let you review files before importing

  • Enable contract type assignment during import (not after)

  • Offer AI-powered tagging for faster processing

  • Provide flexibility to skip steps when speed matters

Previously, importing contracts into the Repository was time-consuming and rigid. Users had to:

  • Upload files or folders without visibility into what was being imported

  • Manually tag contracts after import

  • Spend extra time organizing contracts before extracting value

This created unnecessary friction—especially when handling large volumes of documents.

The new import flow solves this by giving you:

  • Control — Choose how contracts are categorized

  • Speed — Skip steps when needed

  • Clarity — See exactly what you’re importing and how it will be processed

How It Works

The updated import process is split into two simple steps:

Step 1: Review

Before importing, you can review all files:

  • Each file appears as an individual row with:

    • File name

    • File count

    • Option to remove

  • Folder uploads appear as a single row (flattened view)

    • No nested expansion or per-file metadata

Important Notes:

  • Only PDF files are supported

  • Non-PDF files are automatically skipped

  • Password-protected PDFs:

    • Will be assigned a contract type

    • Will not undergo key term extraction

Step 2: Assign a Contract Type

Choose how contract types are assigned during import:

1. Let AI Assign (Recommended)

  • Automatically classifies each contract

  • Works even for mixed contract types in a single upload

  • Uses intelligent tagging for accuracy and speed

  • Hidden if AI is disabled at the organization level

2. Select Manually

  • Choose a contract type from a dropdown

  • View a preview of key terms that will be extracted

  • Gives full visibility into how contracts will be structured

3. Assign Later

  • Skip contract type assignment during import

  • Add contract types later from the Repository

  • Mirrors the previous workflow

What’s Next

We’re actively working on:

  • Custom Contract Types

  • Custom Key Terms

Once available, you’ll be able to:

  • Create and assign your own contract types during import

  • Define custom key terms for extraction

This will further enhance flexibility and customization in the import process.
