We are proud to announce our win and award for the ‘Innovations in Contract Technology Provider’ at the 2025 Legalweek Leaders in Tech Law Awards!

The awards

The Legalweek Leaders in Tech Law Awards, hosted by AML and Law.com, champion innovation in the legal technology sector and highlight the lawyers, companies and technology providers who are pushing boundaries in the legal tech industry across the US.

The awards are in their fifth year and this year they are celebrating more businesses and lawyers who are changing ways of thinking in the industry.

The awards are split into three categories - for law firms, in-house lawyers and providers. Within each category there are a number of awards to win, from the law firm who has shown the 'Best Use of Artificial Intelligence', to the 'Most Innovative Legal Operations Team of the Year', to awards for legal technology providers such as 'Best Litigation Technology' to 'E-Discovery Technology'.

The categories are all competitive, featuring law firms, lawyers and providers of all shapes and sizes from the US.

2025 winners

A range of law firms and in-house legal teams and professionals have won this year's awards, including one new award, the Monica Bay Women of Legal Tech Award, named after the former editor-in-chief of Legaltech News, to honor women at law firms, legal departments and legal technology.

The technology provider categories were awarded to many software businesses who are innovating and disrupting the legal tech space. From Tonkeen who won the 'Legal Operations Innovation' award, to LRN who won the 'Regulatory, Governance and Compliance Technology' award.

And Summize, as the winners of the 'Innovations in Contract Technology' award!

Summize's win and award

The 'Innovations in Contract Technology' category was a tough category, featuring contract technology and Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) software providers from all over the US. At Summize, we couldn't be prouder of our win and award!

The CLM and contract technology market can be crowded, therefore we know that our CLM software must be innovative, best-in-class and overall transformative for our customers.

We are leaders in innovation and we're quick to evolve and be proactive to provide the best contract management software, for not just in-house legal teams, but for entire businesses!

Here are just some of our many innovations:

  • First CLM to market with our native Outlook integration
  • First to market with AI reviews - all within Microsoft Word
  • Leading Microsoft Teams and Slack integrations, available to all areas of an organization
  • Best-in-class contract summaries
  • Sprint based approach to implementation, so that Summize customers can see CLM value in as little as four weeks


We would like to thank all the Summize team for their continuous hard work and continuous innovative thinking and disruption. Our 'Innovations in Contract Technology' award has been awarded at a time when we're on the cusp of releasing new CLM product features, new innovations and even better ways for businesses to manage their contract processes.

Watch this space for our soon-to-be-announced new features, and in the meantime, take a look at the 2025 Legalweek Leaders in Tech Law Awards full list of winners.
