Our approach: AI that’s accurate, efficient, and trustworthy

Context that goes beyond the repository
With 2k+ customers and over 2 billion contracts processed, Ironclad understands how contracts are drafted, negotiated, and amended. That depth means smarter, more relevant recommendations, with humans always in control of the final call.

Embedded into real business processes, not bolted on
Ironclad’s AI operates within your live contracting workflows, not just static documents, so it can see where each contract is—intake, approval, signature, renewal—and take the right next step.

Governed and enterprise-grade by design
By enforcing zero data retention, excluding your data from AI training, respecting your existing permissions, and using BYOK encryption, Ironclad ensures your information stays entirely within your control.

Your data stays yours. Ironclad’s AI NEVER exposes sensitive or identifiable information from your contracts—our AI is informed by anonymized, aggregated patterns, meaning what you get is the intelligence that comes from scale, without any privacy tradeoff. If you choose to opt in to data sharing, it helps improve the global model for everyone and ensures your use cases are better reflected—but it’s entirely optional, and your protections don’t change either way.
Ironclad’s AI doesn’t just understand what contracts say—it understands how they actually move and live. That’s a meaningful distinction. Most AI tools analyze contract language in isolation. Ironclad’s AI is informed by structural intelligence and workflow depth built from anonymized patterns across 2+ billion processed contracts—giving it a contextual understanding of how deals actually get done that no document-only AI can replicate.
– You always stay in control and your data stays confidential.
– Any customer data used to train Ironclad’s AI models is anonymized and aggregated prior to use.
– We continue to enforce strict “do not train” and “zero data retention” policies with external LLM providers.
– Output generated for other customers by AI products leveraging models trained on your data will never include your customer data. Ironclad employs strict security standards in line with industry best practices, and this extends to our protection of training data
– Ironclad’s existing security and compliance posture (SOC 1 and 2 type II, ISO 27001/27701/27017/27018, GDPR program, CSA Trusted Cloud Provider, etc.) remains in force.
We work to ensure AI outputs are accurate, explainable, and free from bias through a combination of systematic evaluation, data governance, and human oversight.
– Evaluation Framework: Every AI feature is tested through Ironclad’s Evaluation Framework, which measures accuracy, consistency, and reliability against curated benchmarks and real-world contract data.
– Human-in-the-Loop Reviews: Subject matter experts validate model outputs throughout development and deployment, creating continuous feedback loops that improve quality and detect potential biases early.
– Data and Model Governance: All models operate under Zero Data Retention (ZDR) with third-party providers, and training data is carefully controlled to reflect diverse contract types and jurisdictions.
– Explainability and Transparency: Our AI solutions are designed to surface reasoning context where possible (e.g., highlighting extracted properties or showing redline rationale), allowing users to trace and verify AI-driven recommendations.
