Contract management software integration – The Future of Business

on January 12, 2021

Most modern vendor and contract management software solutions support workflow management. That’s nothing new. However, it’s time to start thinking beyond just data integration. What if we could find a way to implement easily contract management software integration? What if we could contract handle contract easily though different processes and applications? Giving vendors, customers and businesses the data at the point in time they need to actually make a decision by integrating it directly into the workflow.

How to Achieve (end-to-end) contract automation efficiency

on December 29, 2020

Contract automation efficiency is no longer a matter of choice. It is a necessity in this digital day and age when users expect a seamless on-boarding experience, which traditional contracting cannot offer.

Tales From The Future: an immersive view on the contracts of the future

on December 4, 2020

‘Sign here, here and here’. Signing a contract makes me a bit tense, those are not the contracts of the future I would like to have or sign.

Contracts nowadays don’t serve people as they should. They are unnecessarily hard to write and read. The endless legalese makes them a daunting matter. Their binding power is not bulletproof.

There are 19.972 words in the iTunes terms and conditions. Shakespeare’s Macbeth has 18.100 words. When you click “I agree”, you’re saying to iTunes that you have read something longer than Macbeth.’ In short, today’s contracts do not enable optimal and risk-free decisions.

At Trakti we are crafting contracts of the future to serve people and businesses not the other way around.

What are the benefits of Smart Legal Contracts for companies?

on December 2, 2020

We have reached the next stage in the expression of commercial arrangements. Blockchains are increasingly being used to foster and execute legal agreements, supporting a new generation of electronic Smart Legal Contracts. Blockchain networks and computer programs called “smart contracts” enable parties to memorialise all or parts of legal agreements. By using this technology, contracting parties gain the ability to create arrangements that are hard to modify, dynamic, and potentially less ambiguous than traditional legal contracts.
