Ironclad news and product updates

Ironclad Assistant became Ironclad Agent on 8 Oct, a single entry point that routes requests to Intake, Contract Review, Archive, Renewals and Analytics agents grounded in a Contract Knowledge Graph of clauses, obligations and negotiated decisions. The Search, Analytics, Workflow Designer and Contract Family agents and policy based access control, checked on every request, are generally available, while Playbook Agent is in early access. Where enabled, the Agent homepage becomes the default view, and switching the Agent off in Company Settings also disables AI Search and MCP access.

Buyer relevance. Contract teams get one place to ask about any agreement, with answers drawn from what was actually negotiated rather than templates alone. Admins should note the new default homepage and that the Agent toggle also governs AI Search and MCP.

Ironclad released an Ironclad Contracts plugin for ChatGPT. Users can search their Ironclad contract repository and workflows in plain language from inside ChatGPT.

Buyer relevance. Contract repositories hold the commercial terms the business asks legal about most, so this can move routine questions out of legal's inbox. Ask whether the plugin respects Ironclad's record level permissions, since sales and procurement users often have narrower access than legal.
