MicroVention replaces incumbent CLM with Lexion to automate contract intake and enable on-demand reporting

The problem

MicroVention's previous CLM was too technical and saw little adoption: the repository was unsearchable, version control was chaotic, and other departments felt legal requests disappeared into a blackhole through a clunky intake process.

First attempt

The incumbent CLM was so difficult to use that it saw little adoption, forcing the team to maintain duplicate contract copies on a separate shared drive and leaving most of its capabilities unused.

With Lexion, MicroVention automated contract intake and routing, enabled on-demand reporting on active contracts (previously taking six months to a year to set up), freed the legal team from being hands-on at every stage, and saved many hours on routine tasks.
