Changelog
👯♀️ Signing groups

We’ve introduced a new Sign in groups option to streamline multi-party contract signing.
- Availability
- This option is available only for contracts with three or more signees.
- This option is available for Accelerate plans only. However, it's possible to get it as an add-on. To do that, contact our support.
- How it works:
- You can create as many signing groups as needed.
- The contract is first sent to the initial group of signees.
- Once every member of that group has signed, the contract automatically moves to the next group.
This ensures a clear, structured signing process when multiple parties are involved.
👋🏼 Say hello to the Review Page - your confident boost before sending contracts for signature

The contract creation process often felt overwhelming - too many tasks and features crammed into one place. This made it harder for you to focus and feel confident before sending a contract.
What’s new
We’ve split the process into two simple steps:
- Creation - draft your contract.
- Review - a brand new step where you can:
- Double-check the contract details.
- Set up signing options.
- Set up signing order.
- Make last-minute tweaks to parties and signees details.
- Write a message to recipients.
- Create tasks and reminders.
💅🏻 The template library got a new look and a few extra functionalities

We’ve updated the template library as the old one felt clunky and UI outdated.
What’s new
- Fresh, light modal: A redesigned interface that’s clean and consistent with the rest of the app.
- Filter options: Find templates faster with Language and Sort by filters.
- Preview mode: See what a template looks like before you start using it.
🔎 Preview mode just got clearer

Users were often confused when switching to Preview mode, expecting they could still edit the contract, similar to how tools like Word allow editing in preview.
What’s new
- The Preview tab now has a blue background for easy recognition.
- A “Read only” badge clearly shows that this mode is for viewing only.
✨ Create tasks and reminders with ease

You can now create tasks and set reminders faster - directly from the Contracts View, Draft Page, or Review Page.
What’s new
- Streamlined task types: Focus on the essentials - Approval, Renewal, and Review.
- Quick reminders: Add reminders to obligation dates in just seconds with the new “Add reminder” icon in the Contracts View.
- Redesigned task modal: A fresh, simplified interface for adding tasks.
- Better task management: Create tasks and get a clear overview of them right in the Review Page.
❌ Cancel AI uploads mid-process

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.
What’s new
- Cancel uploads from the modal at any stage
- Cancelled contracts are discarded completely
🧼 Unified headers on templates and documents

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.
🏢 Company page with aggregate usage counts and settings

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
Resources
📤 Download drafts and templates as Word files (.docx)

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.
🧱 Default data fields

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.
📩 Signees are notified when a contract is rejected or deleted

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.
