Zycus Contract Management supports contract work from request and authoring through negotiation, approval, execution and post-signature tracking. Guided intake, a request catalog and chat provide ways to start requests, while approval workflows and policy controls support review. Authoring tools include a clause library, playbook-based fallback positions and multi-party redlining in Microsoft Word. Zycus says its iContract product runs on the Merlin Agentic AI Platform, which supports drafting, clause review, metadata extraction, obligation tracking and renewal management. Merlin agents can structure information from agreements, including bulk-uploaded legacy contracts. Users can search within a contract or across repositories. The system monitors obligations, milestones, renewal windows and auto-renewal risks, with alerts, reminders, audit logs and version control. Zycus says it integrates with DocuSign, Adobe Sign, SAP, Oracle and other e-signature providers and ERPs, and connects with its Sourcing, Supplier Management and Spend Analytics products. The web-based product is aimed at enterprise processes, including legal, procurement and finance reviews. Pricing is available on request.
