// CLM

The Ironclad alternative without enterprise pricing or rigidity.

Ironclad targets enterprise legal teams with enterprise pricing to match — £100k+/yr for workflows that still don’t flex to your actual authority structure. TailorStack builds CLM systems that mirror how your legal team really works, at a fraction of the cost.

Why teams leave Ironclad

  • Enterprise-tier pricing means you’re paying £100k+/yr before implementation and configuration costs.
  • Ironclad’s workflow builder is powerful but rigid — complex approval chains with conditional logic still need professional services.
  • AI-assisted review features are locked behind premium tiers and don’t use the latest models.
  • The platform is designed for high-volume enterprise legal teams — mid-market teams pay for capacity they’ll never use.
  • Integration with your existing tools (CRM, e-signature, ERP) requires middleware or custom connectors.

What you get instead

Enterprise-grade CLM without enterprise pricing. AI-powered document extraction using the latest models — OpenAI + Tesseract OCR for scanned documents. Approval routing that handles your exact conditional logic — regional variations, deal-size thresholds, product-specific reviewers. Full lifecycle tracking with automated alerts. Built in 5–7 weeks, one-time fixed price.
