Ivo
Ivo is an AI contract intelligence platform built by the San Francisco company founded in 2022 as Latch and renamed Ivo in 2024, made for in-house legal teams rather than law firms. It spans Ivo Review, a Microsoft Word and Google Docs add-in that applies playbooks clause by clause as native track changes; Ivo Assistant for drafting, research and cross-contract Q&A; and Ivo Intelligence, an analytics layer on the AiRE engine. Legal teams use it to cut manual review time and turn contract libraries into queryable business data.
About the product
Ivo is an AI contract intelligence platform for in-house legal teams, built by the San Francisco company founded in 2022 as Latch and rebranded to Ivo in 2024. It targets the bottleneck that forms when a small legal department has to review, redline and negotiate a high volume of commercial agreements against its own playbook.
Key features of Ivo include:
- Ivo Review: Reviews contracts against a company playbook clause by clause inside Microsoft Word and Google Docs, returning targeted native track-changes redlines instead of full rewrites.
- Ivo Assistant: Provides an agentic AI layer for drafting, legal research and cross-contract question answering, available from the Word add-in or from the web platform.
- Ivo Intelligence: Turns an existing contract library into queryable business intelligence using the AiRE repository engine, with no data migration or manual tagging required.
- Playbook Builder: Generates a first-draft negotiation playbook automatically from previously executed agreements, for teams that have no documented positions written down yet.
- Enterprise Integrations: Connects with document management systems, cloud storage, CRM and e-signature platforms, and operates under SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 certification.
Best for: In-house legal and procurement teams at mid-market and enterprise companies that review high volumes of NDAs, MSAs and vendor paper against a defined playbook.
Ivo keeps contract review where lawyers already work, in Word, while capturing negotiated positions as structured data. Legal teams get faster turnaround for the business and a searchable record of what has been agreed across the portfolio.
Ivo is an AI contract review and intelligence platform that applies legal playbooks to redline agreements inside Microsoft Word, accelerating turnaround for in-house legal teams.
