Changelog

You can now cancel contracts during AI upload - at any stage in the upload process (Uploading, OCR, or AI extraction). Just click the ✖️ next to the file name in the upload modal.

• Cancelled contracts are discarded completely

We’ve unified the header design across all template and document pages for visual consistency. This includes a minimalistic contextual action menu next to the document title, and main action buttons aligned to on the right-hand side.

We’ve launched a new Company page to help admins manage organization-level settings, users, and subscriptions more effectively. A key highlight is the new Subscription tab, which shows aggregated usage counts for your company. This page is a first step towards our new upcoming Company hub, containing new user management, user groups, and admin permissions.

Important: Only selected admins from your Company are able to interact with the Company page. ‍

What’s new

• Company page: Central hub for company-wide management
• Settings: Company details and subscription management, gated by permissions
• Usage counts: See contract volume, templates, users, and more at a glance

You can now download any Contractbook draft or template as a Word (.docx) file. This gives you flexibility to react to counterparties who insist on negotiating in Word instead of Contractbook.

What’s new

• Download as Word (.docx): Available in the top-bar menu of both the draft and template editors
• Don't break your workflow: Easily share a contract with parties who don’t want to negotiate in-app, re-upload for signature later

‍

Note: Native Contractbook components like parties and signees, data fields, conditional text, comments and suggestions are converted to plain text in the downloaded Word file. Re-importing the file to Contractbook won’t restore these components.

‍

Long attachments were cluttering your contracts and overwhelming recipients. Now they stay neatly tucked away in collapsible sections, so the focus stays where it should: the contract itself.

Whether you're drafting or signing, navigating contracts just got faster, smoother, and more focused.

What’s new

• Collapsible attachment display: Attachments are now grouped and foldable in the contract view.
• For creators: The most recently added attachment is expanded by default so you can review it immediately.
• For recipients: All attachments start collapsed by default, reducing visual clutter and page overload.

Why it matters

• Keeps your contracts clean and readable
• Reduces recipient fatigue by hiding non-essential content
• Makes it easier to navigate contracts with many or long attachments

When uploading your signed contracts with AI upload, you can now click any purple AI-extracted data field to instantly jump to the exact section in the PDF it came from. We highlight the source right inside your document, so you can review and trust your contract data without second-guessing.

This is one of the most requested improvements to AI upload. It turns what used to be a manual and error-prone review process into an intuitive and visual flow.

What’s new

• Source-linked highlights: Click any purple data field in the sidebar to scroll to and see its exact source in the document.
• Clear, contextual review: You get a visual reference for every extracted field — no more manual search or doubt

Bonus improvements

• 🚀 No more data field limit – extract as many fields as needed per upload.
• ⚡ Faster, more reliable OCR – improved processing speed and fewer upload errors.

‍

Take full control of your contract metadata. Team owners can now set, update, and remove default data fields across the company, making it easier to ensure consistent contract data from the start. No more hardcoded defaults. No more awkward workarounds. Just clean, centralized data field control.

What’s new

• Custom default fields: Team Owners can now mark any data field as default from the data fields library.
• Global consistency: Defaults appear across all templates and new contracts (except those already signed or pending).
• Company-wide standards: Ensure essential data is always collected — and nothing extra sneaks in.

‍

You can now create Contractbook-native drafts or templates by uploading a .docx file. Whether you're starting from a customer contract or recycling old Word documents, it's never been easier to bring your Word files into Contractbook.

Both actions are now just a click away from the main action menus on /home, /documents, and /templates

What’s new

• Create draft from DOCX: Convert a Word file into a Contractbook draft to edit, negotiate and sign in one place.
• Create template from DOCX: Convert a Word file into a Contractbook template and re-use it across your organisation.
• Available from main action buttons: Use the new action from all main sections of the app.

‍

When a contract is rejected or deleted by the owner, everyone who was invited to sign, or had already signed, will now receive an email notification.

This makes the signature experience clearer, more transparent, and fairer for all parties involved. Because in signature workflows, nobody likes surprises.

What’s new

• Email notifications for signees when a contract is:
  • ❌ Rejected by the owner
  • 🗑️ Deleted from the platform
• Clear message includes the sender’s name and what happened to the contract.
