Sound familiar?

Three questions.
Days of searching.

Three scenarios that slow teams down every day — and how top.legal answers them in seconds.

01 / Portfolio blindness

What's our termination risk this quarter?

The CFO asks, and Legal needs days to piece together an answer. Contracts are scattered across inboxes, drives and folders.

Answer in seconds, provably complete.

02 / Negotiation chaos

Who changed what last?

Contracts bounce around by email and Word versions pile up. Changes get lost and approvals stall.

One negotiation room, no version chaos.

03 / Compliance risk

Are all supplier contracts GDPR-compliant?

For an audit, Legal combs through dozens of contracts by hand. It takes weeks, and doubt remains.

Reliable queries across the whole portfolio.

One shared foundation

Fewer handoffs.
More of the contract under control.

top.legal connects contracts, data and collaboration in one place. Teams keep the overview while Legal sets the guardrails — from the first draft to the next decision.

Value clearly in view

WorldCC estimates annual value erosion at almost 9% of revenue. Visible deadlines and obligations help teams tackle risks earlier.

Potential for recovery

A separate WorldCC report names 5.4% of contract value as recoverable. This is not a top.legal customer result.

How we compare

We are not a classic CLM.

Classic CLM platforms ship with six-figure implementation budgets, months of IT projects, and end up used only by the legal team. top.legal is built differently.

Classic CLM

  • 6-month implementation

    IT team, consulting project, customizing — time to value measured in quarters, not weeks.

  • AI bolted on later

    Third-party add-ons without governance certification. No ISO/IEC 42001.

  • Tool only for the legal team

    Sales, procurement and finance work around it — contracts go back to email.

top.legal

  • Live in two weeks

    Browser-native, self-service onboarding, no IT consulting. First contracts move on day one.

  • AI-native, ISO/IEC 42001 certified

    First German CLM platform certified for the international AI management standard.

  • Built for every team

    Sales, procurement, finance and legal collaborate directly in the same contract — no Word ping-pong.

Security by design

Security is our standard.

Contracts need a secure frame. top.legal combines AI with traceable governance and data storage built for the DACH region.

Encrypted end to end

Every document is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Good to know

Questions that often
come first.

In a short call we'll work out how the process fits your team.

Your question isn't listed?

top.legal is a contract intelligence platform: it connects contract data, workflows and collaboration across teams — for Sales, Procurement, Operations, Finance and Legal. Legal can set standards without becoming a bottleneck.

Many companies start in one area (e.g. Sales or Procurement) and then roll out across teams. Onboarding is role-based — one platform, one data foundation, different access levels.

That depends on scope and starting point (templates, processes, integrations). Typically you start with a clear use case and expand step by step — no big bang required.

Traditional CLMs manage contracts. top.legal makes contracts analyzable and steerable: data model, AI-powered analysis, workflows and collaboration work together — creating decisions and automation based on real contract data.

Yes. Existing contracts can be imported and structured so that deadlines, values, risks and obligations are centrally visible — including reminders and reporting.

DACH hosting, GDPR compliance, encryption (in transit & at rest) and certified data centers form the foundation. For AI-powered processes, ISO/IEC 42001 is also a key building block (AI management systems).

top.legal integrates into existing system landscapes (e.g. document storage, Identity/SSO, optionally CRM/ERP — depending on setup). In the demo we'll clarify what's relevant for your use case.

Pricing depends on scope (users/teams, modules/use cases, integrations). In the demo we'll scope the right configuration — transparent and without unnecessary packages.
