Use case · Contract lifecycle

A contract that used to take a week, signed by Thursday.

Follow one deal's paperwork from draft to signature to invoice — clause-checked, approval-routed, and billed — without the back-and-forth that usually stalls it.

This is for you if…

  • Contracts sit in inboxes waiting on one approver.
  • Legal can't review every clause by hand.
  • You can't tell a stalled signer from a ghosted one.
  • Signed deals get billed late, if anyone remembers.

One contract, two timelines.

Here's the journey from handshake to paid with email-and-DocuSign — versus one connected flow.

Before · the messy version

  • MonRep asks legal for a contract. Legal is buried; it waits.
  • WedDraft comes back. A risky liability clause slips through unread.
  • Thu–FriSent for signature. The client views it, then goes quiet. No one nudges.
  • Next weekFinally signed. Someone re-keys it into billing. Invoice is late.

Result: a week gone, risk exposure, delayed cash.

After · the automated version

  • Mon 9:00Rep generates the contract. Sigi flags a high-risk clause and suggests a rewrite.
  • Mon 10:00Taro auto-routes it to the legal approver and tracks the review as a task.
  • TueSent for signature. A signer stalls 24h — Sigi nudges automatically.
  • ThuSigned with a full audit trail. Inzo raises the invoice the same moment.

Result: risk caught, approvals on track, paid on signing.

The walkthrough

Meet the deal: a $48k enterprise contract that needs legal review, two approvers, and a signature. Here's how it moves — without a single chase email.

  1. SigiMon 9:00

    Drafted & risk-checked

    The rep generates the contract from a template. Sigi reviews every clause, flags a high-risk liability term, and surfaces a missing indemnity clause — with suggested rewrites.

    → hands the hardened draft to review

  2. TaroMon 10:00

    Review & approvals tracked

    Taro auto-creates a clause-by-clause review task and routes it to the legal approver, then the budget approver — each as a tracked step with a deadline.

    → keeps approvals moving, flags slips early

  3. SigiTue

    Sent for signature

    Once approved, Sigi sends it for legally binding signature. A signer views it but stalls for 24 hours — so Sigi sends an automatic, polite nudge.

    → detects the stall, nudges without you

  4. SigiThu

    Signed with full audit trail

    Both parties sign. Sigi records a verifiable certificate of completion — who signed, when, and from where — ready for compliance.

    → signature triggers billing

  5. InzoThu

    Invoiced on signature

    The instant it's signed, Inzo raises the matching invoice with a payment link and tracks it through to paid. The lifecycle ends at cash, not signature.

    → draft → paid, same week

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is Sigi legally binding?

Yes — Sigi produces legally binding e-signatures with a verifiable audit trail and a certificate of completion recording who signed, when, and from where, across six signing workflow types.

How does the approval tracking work?

When a contract is created, Taro can auto-build a clause-by-clause review structure and route approvals, tracking each stage from activity so nothing waits on a forgotten step.

Does signing really trigger the invoice?

Yes. The moment a contract is marked signed in Sigi, Inzo raises the matching invoice with a payment link — no re-entry between tools.

Can I use just Sigi?

Yes — Sigi handles the full contract lifecycle on its own. Taro and Inzo add the work-tracking and billing stages when you want them.
