Produkt-Update: Januar 2026

Mehr Sicherheit und Effizienz: Von KI-Analysen bis hin zu erweiterten Signatur-Optionen

Wie gewohnt arbeiten wir weiterhin kontinuierlich daran, top.legal für Sie noch intuitiver und leistungsstarker zu gestalten. In dem ersten Monat 2026 liegt der Fokus auf präziseren Signatur-Workflows, verbesserter Vorlagen-Logik und KI-gestützten Analysen.

Erweiterte E-Signatur-Optionen (YouSign & Skribble)

Wir haben unsere Signatur-Integrationen massiv ausgebaut, um Ihnen mehr Flexibilität und rechtliche Sicherheit zu bieten:

- Signatur-Reihenfolge (YouSign): Sie können ab sofort festlegen, in welcher Abfolge die Beteiligten unterzeichnen sollen.
- Signing ID / Header (YouSign): Für eine noch eindeutigere Zuordnung und erhöhte Nachvollziehbarkeit unterstützen wir nun Signing-IDs und Header-Informationen direkt im Signaturprozess.
- Skribble-Signatur direkt aus Aufgaben: Um Reibungsverluste zu vermeiden, können Sie Dokumente nun via Skribble direkt von der Aufgabenseite aus zur Signatur freigeben oder selbst unterzeichnen.

Intelligenter Vorlagen-Editor

Die Erstellung rechtssicherer Vorlagen wird durch neue Logik-Funktionen noch einfacher:

- Bedingter Genehmigungs-Workflow: Vorlagen können nun vor der Verwendung einen internen Freigabeprozess durchlaufen, um höchste Qualitätsstandards zu garantieren.
- Direkte Playbook-Integration: Neu erstellte Eingabefelder werden sofort im Logikbereich des Playbooks angezeigt und können ohne Umwege in Vorlagen eingebunden werden.

Wir haben den Editor massiv ausgebaut, um auch komplexeste Vertragswerke beherrschbar zu machen.

Für Teams mit umfangreichen Playbooks ist dies ein Gamechanger. Wir führen ein umfassendes Tagging-System für Eingabefelder und bedingte Textbausteine ein.

- Ordnung statt Chaos: Versehen Sie Felder mit Tags wie „DSGVO“, „Finanzen“ oder „Sales“.
- Blitzschnelles Finden: Filtern Sie Ihre Logik-Elemente im Editor einfach nach Tags. Anstatt durch hunderte Felder zu scrollen, finden Sie sofort alle relevanten Bausteine für den aktuellen Kontext.
- Teamweite Konsistenz: Einmal erstellte Tags stehen der gesamten Organisation zur Verfügung.

Verlinkte Vorlagen & Anhänge

Schluss mit manuellem Zusammenfügen von Dokumenten.

- Automatische Anhänge: Verknüpfen Sie separate PDFs oder Vorlagen (z. B. AGBs, DPAs) direkt mit Ihrem Hauptvertrag.
- Konditionale Logik: Das System entscheidet intelligent: Wenn im Hauptvertrag „Option A“ gewählt wird, wird automatisch der entsprechende Anhang hinzugefügt.
- Zero-Touch im Dealroom: Sobald der Vertrag erstellt ist, liegen alle Anhänge bereits fix und fertig im Dealroom bereit.

Berechnungsfelder (Calculation Fields)

Lassen Sie Ihre Verträge rechnen.

Fehleranfälliges manuelles Rechnen gehört der Vergangenheit an. Mit dem neuen Berechnungssystem führen Ihre Verträge mathematische Operationen automatisch durch.

- Echtzeit-Kalkulation: Werte aktualisieren sich sofort, wenn sich Bezugsgrößen ändern (z. B. Mengen oder Preise).Der Playbook Editor wurde visuell und funktional modernisiert.
- Komplexe Abhängigkeiten: Berechnen Sie Felder basierend auf anderen Werten im Vertrag oder direkt aus dem Playbook.

Dealroom & Workflow Optimierungen

Effizientere Zusammenarbeit und schnellere Abschlüsse.

Der Feinschliff für Ihre tägliche Arbeit.

Neben den großen Features haben wir basierend auf Ihrem Feedback zahlreiche Detailverbesserungen vorgenommen

Product update: Winter 2025 release

More power for your contracts: From QES signatures to intelligent playbook organization.

For the annual financial statements, we once again comprehensively expanded top.legal. Our latest update not only brings the long-awaited YouSign integration, but also revolutionizes how you organize complex templates and manage tasks.

Here is a detailed overview of all new features.

YouSign Electronic Signature Integration

Legally secure signatures, seamlessly integrated.

We now fully support YouSign e-Signatures. In doing so, we are taking your signature process to the next level in terms of security and compliance without sacrificing usability.

- Highest safety standards: Use integrated identity checks (e.g. via telephone number) for advanced (AES) and qualified (QES) electronic signatures. Ideal for contracts that require the highest level of legal obligation.
- Intuitive drag-and-drop: Place signature, text, and date fields directly in the PDF with millimetre accuracy.
- Seamless workflow: The entire process takes place within the platform — no media breaks for you or your contract partners.

Playbook & template editor 2.0

Improved redlining

We have massively expanded the editor to make even the most complex contracts manageable.

For teams with extensive playbooks, this is a game changer. We are introducing a comprehensive tagging system for input fields and conditional text modules.

- Order instead of chaos: Tag fields such as “GDPR,” “Finance,” or “Sales.”
- Instant finding: Simply filter your logic elements by tags in the editor. Instead of scrolling through hundreds of fields, you can immediately find all relevant components for the current context.
- Team-wide consistency: Once created, tags are available to the entire organization.

Linked templates & attachments

No more manual merging of documents.

- Automatic attachments: Link separate PDFs or templates (e.g. terms and conditions, DPAs) directly to your main contract.
- Conditional logic: The system makes intelligent decisions: If “Option A” is selected in the main contract, the corresponding attachment is automatically added.
- Zero-touch in the dealroom: As soon as the contract is created, all attachments are ready and ready in the deal room.

Calculation Fields

Let your contracts be calculated.

Error-prone manual computing is a thing of the past. With the new calculation system, your contracts automatically perform mathematical operations.

- Real time calculation: Values are updated immediately when base measures change (e.g. quantities or prices). The Playbook Editor has been visually and functionally modernized.
- Complex dependencies: Calculate fields based on other values in the contract or directly from the playbook.

Dealroom & workflow optimizations

Collaboration on contracts is now more transparent and direct than ever before.

Improved comment workflow

The new “Tasks” action center
We have completely redesigned the Tasks Page and linked it directly to the deal room.

- Direct approvals: Approve contracts with one click directly from your task overview.
- Better overview: Filter tasks by status, hide completed tasks, and delete obsolete tasks.

UI & performance updates

The finishing touch for your daily work.

In addition to the major features, we have made numerous detailed improvements based on your feedback

- Accurate highlighting in the editor: If an input field controls several sections of text in the contract, all affected sections are now highlighted at the same time and the document automatically scrolls to the relevant location.
- Faster access: Once created, a new loader will direct you directly to the draft contract.
- Archive navigation: An improved overview and new columns (e.g. template language) provide more clarity in the archive.
- New help center: Your central location for video instructions, direct problem reports via click-up and appointment bookings with the Customer Success Team.
