In today’s fast-paced business environment, contract lifecycle management (CLM) must be more than just functional—it must be intelligent, intuitive, and collaborative. CobbleStone Software’s Patch 22.5.2 delivers exactly that, introducing a robust suite of enhancements across its CobbleStone Contract Insight® platform. This update reflects CobbleStone’s commitment to empowering organizations with smarter automation, streamlined workflows, and improved user experiences.
Whether you're managing contracts, collaborating with vendors, or navigating approval workflows, Patch 22.5.2 brings meaningful enhancements that help teams work faster, smarter, and with greater confidence.
Let’s dive into the most impactful features and enhancements.
AI-Powered Contract Intelligence with VISDOM
CobbleStone continues to push the boundaries of AI in contract management with VISDOM Basic powered by Mistral AI. This new innovation allows users to enjoy agentic AI-powered functionality, such as:
- Answering complex contract database-related queries like "How many contracts are expiring this month?"
- Summarize, rewrite, and translate contract content.
- Generate clauses and enjoy a web search agent.
- Interact with documents using a drag-and-drop interface for intuitive AI assistance.
The VISDOM Field Automation Framework further enhances productivity by auto-filling fields based on document content, using conditional logic and fallback algorithms to foster accuracy and consistency.
For organizations seeking more control, administrators can now disable VISDOM entirely if desired, offering flexibility in how AI is adopted across teams.
CobbleStone Helper Applications: Productivity Boosts
CobbleStone’s suite of helper applications has been upgraded to support more efficient day-to-day operations:
The new CobbleConnect application replaces the legacy PC Helper, offering a modern interface for searching records, uploading files, and viewing data across six record types.
The CobbleStone Word Add-In now supports direct uploads to linked records, AI-powered risk management and review, and more - streamlining document management and reducing manual steps.
Document Collaboration & E-Signature Enhancements
The Document Collaboration & E-Signature module has been refined to support smoother workflows and better user experiences:
- E-Approval workflows now include reminders and restrictions to prevent incomplete approvals.
- A streamlined transition from E-Approval to E-Signature reduces friction and saves time.
- Users can initiate e-signatures directly from the Attachments Toolbox, with applicable file size warnings for Adobe Acrobat Sign.
- IntelliSign® now defaults to saved signatures, improving layout consistency and reducing manual effort.
- Expanded status update options across all template types enhance workflow visibility.
- Improved visual cues for signing make the process even more intuitive for all participants.
Vendor & Client Collaboration Gateway Improvements
