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 contract object graph is executed, with instances of execution including receiving contract state updates and appending update object components accordingly. Variations of the system may involve peer-to-peer negotiation, cryptographic contract object graphs, and integration with distributed ledgers.
Claim 1 of the patent outlines a method that includes managing the formation stage of a contract document within a contract management system accessible by involved parties. This involves obtaining object components, creating a contract object graph, and committing it to post-formation execution. During the post-formation stage, the contract object graph is executed, with actions such as receiving contract state updates and appending object components in accordance with the updates. This claim highlights the detailed process involved in the system and method for computable contracts as described in the patent filed by DocuSign Inc.
