Application: System and method for forming, storing, managing, and executing contracts (Patent ID: US20240202663A1)

The patent filed by DocuSign Inc. describes a system and method for computable contracts that involves a contract management system accessible by parties involved in the contract. The system manages the formation stage of a contract document by obtaining object components, assembling a contract object graph, and committing it to post-formation execution. During the post-formation stage, the system executes the contract object graph by receiving contract state updates and appending update object components accordingly. Variations of the system may include peer-to-peer negotiation, cryptographic contract object graphs, and integration with distributed ledgers.

Claim 1 of the patent outlines a method that involves managing the formation stage of a contract document within a contract management system accessible by involved parties. This includes obtaining object components, creating a contract object graph, and committing it to post-formation execution. During the post-formation stage, the method involves executing the contract object graph by receiving contract state updates and appending object components based on the updates. This claim highlights the innovative approach of using computable contracts to streamline contract management processes and enhance the efficiency of contract execution.
