Surface every obligation tied to your IP.
The challenge
IP licensing agreements carry royalty terms, field-of-use limits, and renewal conditions that have to be tracked precisely. Locating each obligation across a portfolio of agreements takes close, careful attention.
The solution
The AI-Native Search experience extracts the clauses and obligations from each licensing agreement and presents them as a structured summary, with the source text cited. The team sees what each agreement commits the client to, without rereading every page.
Key Capabilities Used:
AI-Native Search experience.
Navigate to the relevant matter workspace in the iManage Next Generation Platform and open the AI-Native Search experience.
The search experience reads directly from the licensing agreements stored in the matter, so the results are drawn from the actual documents on file.
Type the question as you would ask a colleague, for example: "What are the royalty terms, field-of-use restrictions, and renewal conditions in this licensing agreement?", the ask iManage button will light up.
There is no need to know where in the document each obligation sits.
The AI-Native Search experience returns a structured summary of the obligations extracted from the agreement, with each item cited back to the source clause.
Counsel can see what the agreement commits the client to at a glance.
Select any cited reference to open the relevant clause in full.
The source text is available in context, so counsel can verify the extraction and review surrounding terms where needed.
