About
Ivo is an AI-native contract intelligence platform designed to help enterprise legal teams accelerate deal velocity and surface critical business insights from their agreements. The platform combines three core capabilities: Ivo Review, Ivo Intelligence, and Ivo Assistant. Ivo Review enables AI-powered redlining and contract analysis directly inside Microsoft Word. Legal teams can review and redline agreements against internal playbooks, previously negotiated contracts, and external market benchmarks. Prompt-based, agentic AI capabilities allow attorneys to draft, revise, and comment on clauses using plain-language instructions. Ivo Intelligence provides an AI-native contract repository that automatically analyzes entire contract libraries without manual tagging. It surfaces relationships between contracts—such as amendments, restatements, and superseding agreements—and brings base contracts and amendments together into a unified view. Ivo Assistant acts as a single AI agent for contract review, intelligence, and legal research. Users can ask complex questions across their contract portfolio to identify risk, uncover negotiation patterns, and handle legal research using trusted, verified sources without leaving their workflow. Trusted by companies like Atlassian and Canva, Ivo is SOC 2 certified, ISO 27001 certified, GDPR and CCPA compliant, and never trains AI models on customer data. It is purpose-built for general counsel offices, deputy general counsels, and commercial legal teams seeking to reduce contract cycle times and transform agreements into strategic business intelligence.
