Contracts 365 Announces New Contract Management Innovations Powered by Microsoft Azure AI – Yahoo Finance
Using Azure Form Recognizer, Contracts 365 delivers new tools to help customers streamline data extraction and contract processing.
NEWBURYPORT, Mass., Oct. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Contracts 365, Inc., the leading provider of contract management software for organizations that run Microsoft 365, announced that it has leveraged Microsoft Azure and its AI capabilities to bring new innovations to the contract management community.
Today’s next-generation Contract Lifecycle Management solutions require innovation for both the technology and user experience. The integration between Contracts 365 and Azure AI services like Azure Form Recognizer will deliver innovative and practical value to the contract management community. The prospect of AI for contract management has been an aspiration for organizations across all industries. The challenges associated with data accuracy and speed in processing have prevented organizations from implementing AI-based software products. Legal teams have remained dubious of the real benefits, and unfortunately, many products have generated low levels of data accuracy when extractions occur. To compound that problem, users are challenged in having an elegant way to interpret results to clearly understand which portion is correct and which is not. Subsequent data validation techniques (people!) are utilized to “clean” the data sets, creating incremental costs and delays, which render meaningful ROI metrics negative.
“We are thrilled to be working with the Microsoft team to leverage the power of Microsoft’s ‘Azure AI’ platform”, said Russ Edelman, President & CEO of Contracts 365. “Other CLM vendors with AI functionality simply haven’t delivered on the promise of AI/ML bringing value across all phases of the contract management cycle. Microsoft is uniquely positioned to bring the depth and breadth of AI requirements to a highly functional level for organizations looking to automate their contracting process,” continued Edelman.
Azure Form Recognizer is an Azure Applied AI Service within the Azure AI platform that applies advanced machine learning to extract text, key-value pairs, tables and structures from contracts automatically and accurately. This allows users to turn contracts into usable data and shift focus to acting on information rather than compiling it. The service allows you to start with pre-built “models” or create customized models [1] (See referenced #1 below for links to Microsoft models) tailored to your contracts and documents. Contracts 365 “embraces” the core Azure Form Recognizer features and then extends the AI/ML engine with critical data validation and matching to ensure that the right data is being extracted and associated with the contracts.
“By leveraging the Contracts365’s platform, enterprise customers are extracting business value at scale with AI. The platform addresses a variety of challenges related to document processing, allowing customers to take advantage of Azure’s industry-leading AI models and enterprise-grade reliability and security,” said Ben Tezcan, Principal Program Manager, Azure AI Platform, Microsoft.
Contracts 365 and Microsoft will feature the new Azure Form Recognizer capabilities integrated with Contracts 365 at two events in the fourth quarter. First, on Oct. 27, the companies will jointly present a webinar through the World Commerce & Contracting Association (WorldCC). Titled, “Power Contract Management with Contracts 365 & Microsoft Applied AI Services“, the webinar will feature Edelman and Tezcan discussing how Contracts 365 and Microsoft have partnered to bring Azure Form Recognizer capabilities to contract management. They will demonstrate advanced machine learning and how it can support key contracting functions such as automated data extraction from legacy contracts or directly from third-party agreements. Mr. Tezcan will share Microsoft’s vision and how its pre-built contract understanding model is delivering highly accurate and rapid metadata extraction from documents.
Then, on Nov. 7, Contracts 365 and Microsoft will come back together at the WorldCC Americas Summit in Arizona, the gold standard of contract management events, to demonstrate the combined power of Azure Form Recognizer and Contracts 365 Data Extraction & Processing Model.
“Contracts 365’s unique and strategic offering has always been one that is founded upon the Microsoft product stack. It is not surprising to see that they are also the first to market in leveraging these exciting new AI capabilities within Azure Applied AI Services. The power of the Azure AI platform, coupled with Contracts 365’s obsession for an incredibly elegant and powerful user experience, makes them a key player in the highly competitive CLM marketplace.”, said Paul Branch, Chief Networking Officer with WorldCC.

This open source tool used by Google, Meta and MIT is helping rethink knowledge management – TechCrunch
Logseq founder Tienson Qin takes a lot of notes about his work. He also likes to draw together with his six-year-old daughter on an iPad, and he found that the notes tool he had been using for years doesn’t run on the tablet. So like all enterprising engineers, he decided to build a new tool that does.
Being able to share drawings with his child may have been an initial motivation for Qin, but he also wanted to build a tool for connecting his work documents in a kind of internal web that could be shared across any device, either for an individual or a team of users.
“I needed to make my life easier, and to connect my notes so I could build my thoughts incrementally and connect them together. So it started as a solo project, and now we’re expanding that, and it will be a company that we will build a team around,” Qin told me.
The idea is not unlike the web itself, which lets you connect related information across systems, but in this case, it’s about sharing knowledge and research semantically for individuals and teams. Eventually, this has the potential to be a system for more easily managing knowledge inside an organization, a goal that has been attempted for years, but so far has never succeeded completely.
Qin found that existing note tools like Evernote and Notion didn’t connect and organize related documents the way he needed, relying too much on a hierarchical file structure. “Logseq is entirely different. Those platforms store text in single documents. Logseq stores inter-connected information in infinite graphs. This means that you can traverse a research volume or dataset or CRM in Logseq by browsing these interconnected graphs.”
That’s because the open source tool is built on a graph database to allow the system to build semantic connections between documents, whether notes, research, information or PDF markups. “You have a set of keywords, and you can connect those ideas together through keywords and what we call a reference so you can reference this page or this idea in another page and build the connections in this way,” he said.
It’s also designed to allow the development of plug-ins to add elements that don’t exist in the base product, such as Google Calendar integration and a tagging tool to extend the capabilities of the base tool.
What’s more, Qin says the project has put a priority on privacy, and the company doesn’t have access to any notes on the system, which are all stored locally. The company only launched the tool in open source in October, but reports that large organizations like Google, Meta and MIT have been using Logseq.
For now the product just consists of an editor, which is Markup language-based, but they are working on additional pieces, including real-time collaboration in which multiple users can work on the same document at the same time like multiple people working on a Google Doc. That capability is expected to be ready soon.
The idea is so compelling that Qin has raised $4.1 million in initial capital led by Stripe CEO Patrick Collison, Shopify CEO Tobias Lütke, and Nat Friedman, former CEO of GitHub. Other participants include traditional VCs Day One Ventures, Craft Ventures, Matrix Partners and Andreessen Horowitz. Users, including teams at Google Brain, IDEO, Meta, Tesla, MIT, Stanford and Harvard, also contributed to the round. The fact that users are contributing is pretty unusual, according to the company.

DMS: A boon for carmakers – The Manila Times
A RECENT global technology research shows that shipments of vehicles featuring camera-based driver monitoring systems (DMS) will jump from 8 million in 2022 to 47 million in 2027, more than 50 percent of global new vehicle sales.
These systems offer reliable real-time driver distraction monitoring as a means to prevent accidents. While mainly driven by regulation, they also enable a range of infotainment-related features that will provide carmakers with the opportunity to recoup their investments.
Because DMS will become mandated, carmakers, especially in the mass market, were initially interested in deploying the minimal EU General Safety Regulation (GSR) requirements. However, standard mandated advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) features drive an additional cost into the vehicle that original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) could not quickly or easily recuperate.
“Hence, envisioning additional use cases that use the available sensor technology has become imperative,” said Maite Bezerra, Smart Mobility & Automotive Industry analyst at ABI Research.
“With the realization that monetization opportunities could be realized with the same DMS hardware and minor incremental software investment, most carmakers' DMS RFQs (Request for Proposal for Implementation of Document Management System) now request two to three features beyond driver attention monitoring.”
DMS safety-related detection capabilities include drowsiness, distraction, seatbelt use, smoking, and phone use. However, DMS could also support several convenience features. For example, the driver's head position and gaze direction input could enable augmented reality (AR) head-up displays and 3D dashboards to provide information about points of interest (e.g., Mercedes' MBUX Travel Knowledge) or to highlight or tone down information in the cockpit, decreasing energy consumption in EVs. Advanced cognitive load detection capabilities could be used by personal assistants to measure the driver's stress level, mood or health, and make suggestions or take actions accordingly. Examples include Cerence Co-Pilot, Nvidia Concierge, and NIO's NOMI.
“There is also interest in using the driver's medical status, such as heart and respiration rates, to determine stress level and medical condition after accidents,” Bezerra said.
Expanding the DMS scope to occupant monitoring systems (OMS) within the same camera is another clear trend due to the broad range of monetizable use cases enabled by camera-based OMS.
“OMS' primary use case is detecting children or pets left behind, but input could be used to enhance passenger safety and convenience,” Bezerra said. “For example, the camera could detect the incorrect use of seatbelts, and the occupant's position in the car could be used to regulate airbag deployment more effectively. Regarding convenience, the camera could be used for selfies, videoconferences, remote vehicle motoring, and multiuser in-cabin and media content customization.”
ABI Research forecasts that nearly 10 million vehicles will be shipped with single-camera DMS and OMS, offered by companies including Seeing Machines, Cipia, Tobii and Jungo, in 2028.
“Moving forward, DMS and OMS will be critical sensors enabling next-generation automotive HMI and UX. Machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), multimodal input and output channels, and unprecedented integration with vehicle sensors, domains, location data and other IoT devices will be combined to provide an intuitive, humanized and seamless in-car user experience,” Bezerra said.

Top ICT tenders: Smart cities, broadcasting back in focus – ITWeb
With the end of the year in sight, government is now mostly pushing tender submission deadlines out to the last two weeks of January and, in one case, even February.
This doesn’t mean there is little of interest on offer from government and its entities. In fact, two tenders featuring in this week’s Tender Watch are likely to catch the attention of both the public and ICT sectors.
First up is an advertisement from the Department of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA) for a service provider to conduct an assessment, evaluate the readiness of selected municipalities in terms of their adoption and implementation of the Smart Cities Framework (SCF), and develop a support programme for the implementation of smart city initiatives over the period of a year.
The department notes the dream of building South African smart cities goes to the highest levels of government and has been specifically mentioned by president Cyril Ramaphosa in both the 2018 and 2020 State of the Nation addresses to Parliament.
It adds the purpose of the SCF is to guide decision-making and provide all role-players with a structured approach to identifying, planning and implementing smart city initiatives that are appropriate to the local context.
“Because smart cities must be informed by, and respond to, local conditions, the SCF does not contain instructions or specifications. For the same reason, the framework does not prescribe minimum standards or requirements for smart cities, initiatives or technologies. The framework rather guides and informs decision-making to ensure smart city initiatives are appropriate to the particular context,” it says.
COGTA has identified 16 municipalities from the Eastern Cape, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga and the Western Cape for analysis by the winning bidder. Following analysis, the bidder will be required to identify five to eight cities and towns for “redesign and refurbishment” and produce a support programme with detailed analysis reports, site plans and 3D models as outlined in the terms of reference.
The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) closes the issue with a tender that requests assistance in conducting an inquiry into television subscription broadcasting services.
The tender follows a notice published in July 2016 of its intention to inquire into the state of competition in subscription television broadcasting services. At that time, the regulator noted that despite having issued five subscription broadcasting service licences in 2007 and a further two in 2015, only three licensees were operational. This notice was followed by a discussion document in 2017, draft findings in 2019 and public hearings that were held in January 2021.
Following the public hearings, however, ICASA noted the rapidly-changing market developments will have an impact on the final findings. Accordingly, the authority decided to extend its inquiry in the subscription broadcasting services market.
“The purpose of the extended inquiry is to assess the state of competition and determine whether or not there are markets or market segments within the subscription broadcasting services value chain that may warrant regulation in the context of a market review in terms of section 67(4) of the ECA,” it says.
The scope of work includes:
Other tenders that make this week’s top 10 include:
Department of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs

“With its strong recurring revenue model, blue-chip clients and very low customer churn, the acquisition of DealerDOCX presents Docufree with a multitude of opportunities,” said Brad Jenkins, CEO of Docufree. “This acquisition also expands Docufree’s deep expertise in software engineering and cloud services, along with domain insight into automobile sales and operations. Additionally, there are several innovative technology components that seamlessly complement and integrate with our existing technology suite of offerings—giving us a tremendous growth trajectory involving smart, agile enterprise solutions that result in successful digital transformations.
DealerDOCX’s document-intelligence proprietary cloud solution, delivered via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, is powered by the company’s patented automated audit-compliance analytics engine – which streamlines compliance engagements by analyzing client-specific documents and leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to generate audit scorecards and document bundles. The platform enables auto dealerships to effectively navigate compliance requirements with sales reps and auditing staff to ensure time-saving and cost-efficient practices without the need for external auditors. This solution helps dealerships avoid costly government or Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) incentive-based compliance violation fines and find room for revenue improvement.
The DealerDOCX platform maintains strong strategic partnerships with dominant industry Dealer Management System (DMS) providers, such as Dealertrack Technologies, CDK Global, and Reynolds & Reynolds, to provide full integration utilizing its predictive-analytics capabilities into their respective dealer systems. DealerDOCX has built a strong base of more than 350 customers across multiple states and markets.
“We look forward to maximizing their technology in our content-enabled vertical applications while empowering channel partners with many new opportunities to grow their digital transformation suite and recurring cloud revenue models,” said David Winkler executive vice president and chief product officer of Docufree. “DealerDOCX is helping dealerships across the country accelerate their digital transformation objectives, by capturing unprotected physical documents, reducing on-site labor and storage expenses, providing easy and secure digital access to deal jackets, repair orders, invoices, and other sensitive files, while assuring compliance. With this acquisition we’re bringing together the power of our content services platform with their specialized automotive expertise to further drive innovation for both existing and future customers.”

Hunter, who is an industry expert/advisor to QCI, and podcast host of “Hunting Opportunities to Consider,” believes that Quantum Computing, Inc.’s software and hardware solutions can democratize the computer industry, which can solve everyday problems faster and more efficiently. Robert ‘Bob’ Liscouski, President, CEO, and Chairman of Quantum Computing, Inc., appears on set with Jane King, explaining further about the Company.

New to The Street’s TV Host Jane King interviews Hempacco Co., Inc.’s (NASDAQ: HPCO) ($HPCO) Sandro Piancone, Co-Founder/CEO, and Jorge Olson, Co-Founder/Chief Marketing Officer. From the Nasdaq MarketSite studio, viewers learn about the Company’s hemp Disrupting Tobacco™ products. Jorge explains the Company’s goal in Disrupting Tobacco™ products with hemp cigarettes. The tobacco industry is a $1T global industry, while the hemp and cannabis industry is only at $25B. The growing market share for hemp-based smokable products provides opportunities. Jorge explains the different types of cannabinoid infusions that the Company uses to create other effects, from sleep to energy. Hempacco owns its production facility, has vending machine locations, and has private-label products. The growth in their herb and hemp-based alternatives to nicotine cigarettes by manufacturing and marketing herb, spice, and cannabinoid smokables and rolling papers continues. It took the Company two years to create its unique smokable hemp product line. Now, with patents and proprietary intellectual property (IP), the Company is positioned to gain more market share out of the $1T tobacco marketplace. The management team and the Company’s Board of Directors are individuals with unique industry experiences who bring impressive credentials to the Company. The 2018 US Farm Bill allows hemp products to be sold legally in all 50 states and without special taxes. Displayed on countertops, merchants sell CBD-infused cigarettes.

From the New to The Street’s Nasdaq MarketSite studio, Kate Bahnsen, Chief Executive Officer of GMSacha Inchi (OTC: QEDN) ($QEDN), joins TV Host Jane King to talk about the Company. Established in 2013 in Columbia, the Company creates nutritional products. It looks for sustainable farming initiatives which could help farmers make a better wage and plant crops that are not considered illegal. Known as a super food, the Sacha Inchi plant is grown for its seeds. The plant is high in nine essential amino acids, proteins, and Omega 3,6 and 9. The harvesting is about every 15 days giving farmers a sustainable crop with profits and growing consumer markets. The Company is working on a beverage with only 30 grams of calories and full of nutritional benefits, the only Sachai Inchi seed beverage worldwide. Because it is a seed and not a nut, there are no known allergies from consumption. The Company makes flour out of the seed, which adds nutrition to other food preparations. Also, the Company has products for athletes, pets, and snack food industries. Kate talks about a pending US SEC Reg A offering as either a Tier 1 or Tier 2; upon effectiveness, this will allow the Company to obtain investment funding. Kate believes 2023 will be an excellent year for the Company as it rolls out its beverage and other products into the marketplace.

Microsoft announces Syntex, a set of automated document and data processing services – TechCrunch
Two years ago, Microsoft debuted SharePoint Syntex, which leverages AI to automate the capture and classification of data from documents — building on SharePoint’s existing services. Today marks the expansion of the platform into Microsoft Syntex, a set of new products and capabilities including file annotation and data extraction. Syntex reads, tags and indexes document content — whether digital or physical — making it searchable and available within Microsoft 365 apps and helping manage the content lifecycle with security and retention settings.
According to Chris McNulty, the director of Microsoft Syntex, driving the launch was customers’ increasing desire to “do more with less,” particularly as a recession looms. A 2021 survey from Dimensional Research found that more than two-thirds of companies leave valuable data untapped, largely because of problems building pipelines to access that data.
“Just as business intelligence transformed the way companies use data to drive business decisions, Microsoft Syntex unlocks the value of the massive amount of content that resides within an organization,” McNulty told TechCrunch in an email interview. “Virtually any industry with large scale content and processes will see benefits from adopting Microsoft Syntex. In particular, we see the greatest alignment with industries that work with a higher volume of technically dense and regulated content – financial services, manufacturing, health care, life sciences, and retail among them.”
Syntex offers backup, arc1hiving, analytics and management tools for documents as well as a viewer to add annotations and redactions to files. Containers enable developers to store content in a managed sandbox, while “scenario accelerators” provide workflows for use cases like contract management, accounts payable and so on.
“The Syntex content processor lets you build simple rules to trigger the next action, whether it’s a transaction, an alert, a workflow or just filing your content in the right libraries and folders,” McNulty explained. “[Meanwhile,] the advanced viewer adds an annotation and inking layer on top of any content viewable in Microsoft 365. Annotations can be made securely, with different permissions than the underlying content, and also without modifying the underlying content.”
McNulty says that customers like TaylorMade are exploring ways to use Syntex for contract management and assembly, standardizing contracts with common clauses around financial terms. The company is also piloting the service to process orders, receipts and other transactional documents for accounts payable and finance teams, in addition to organizing and securing emails, attachments and other documents for intellectual property and patent filings.
“One of the fastest-growing content transactions is e-signature,” McNulty said. “[With Syntex, you] can send electronic signature requests using Syntex, Adobe Acrobat Sign, DocuSign or any of our other e-signature partner solutions and your content stays in Microsoft 365 while it’s being reviewed and signed.”
Intelligent document processing of the type Syntex does is often touted as a solution to the problem of file management and orchestration at scale. According to one source, 15% of a company’s revenue is spent creating, managing and distributing documents. Documents aren’t just costly — they’re time-wasting and error-prone. More than nine in 10 employees responding to a 2021 ABBY survey said that they waste up to eight hours each week looking through documents to find data, and using traditional methods to create a new document takes on average three hours and incurs six errors in punctuation, spellings, omissions or printing.
A number of startups offer products to tackle this, including Hypatos, which applies deep learning to power a wide range of back-office automation with a focus on industries with heavy financial document processing needs. Flatfile automatically learns how imported data from files should be structured and cleaned, while another vendor, Klarity, aims to replace humans for tasks that require large-scale document review, including accounting order forms, purchase orders and agreements.
As with many of its services announced today, Microsoft, evidently, is betting scale will work in its favor.
“Syntex uses AI and automation technologies from across Microsoft, including summarization, translation and optical character recognition,” McNulty said. “Many of these services are being made available to Microsoft 365 commercial accounts with no additional upfront licensing under a new pay-as-you-go business model.”
Syntex is beginning to roll out today and will continue to roll out in early 2023. Microsoft says it’ll have additional details on service pricing and packaging published on the Microsoft 365 message center and through licensing disclosure documentation in the coming months.
