A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium for generating a document graph. A plurality of electronic documents is received. Each electronic document has a predetermined document type. A machine learning model is selected from the plurality of machine learning models based on the predetermined document type. The selected machine learning model is instructed to extract a plurality of document portions from each electronic document in the plurality of electronic documents in accordance with the predetermined document type. A relationship between two or more document portions is defined based on the content of each document portion, and the document portions are associated based on the relationship. A graph structure having a plurality of nodes is generated. Each node includes at least one document portion. Each node is connected to another node in accordance with the relationship between document portions included in the nodes. The graph structure is stored.

Document graph

A document management system utilizes document models for querying, validating, and customizing electronic agreement documents. Document models can be a data structure including document attributes that represent an agreement document. Examples of document attributes include customizable data values, conditions related to the operation of the agreement document and satisfiable by certain values of the customized data values, and rendering parameters for the appearance of the electronic agreement document. The document management system enables a user to create custom document models for generating electronic agreement documents that can be queried, validated, and customized through querying, validating, and customizing the corresponding document models.

Querying agreement document models in a document management system

Agreement document execution based on document model in a document management system

A system and method for managing an electronic contract for hybrid runtime execution, which includes a contract execution service that comprises an internal runtime environment and a set of integrations to external resources with at least one integration to an on-chain runtime, wherein the contract execution service comprises configuration to: establish the electronic contract, wherein the electronic contract comprises a set of executable programmable components and a set of natural language components; change the state of the electronic contract and generate a contract event; and in response to the contract event: extend execution of the electronic contract to an on-chain environment, when the contract event includes an associated on-chain integration; and extend execution of the electronic contract to an external application resource, when the contract event includes an associated external service integration.

System and method for a hybrid contract execution environment

A system and method for electronic document management including: creating an executable document object, wherein the executable document object comprises at least one programmable element; constructing an interaction schema object, wherein each interaction schema comprises: executable logic and a trigger as part of an inbound interaction schema or an outbound interaction schema that associates an external resource with the executable document object; and bundling the interaction schema object with the executable document object. The method further includes: in response to triggering an inbound interaction schema trigger: activating the executable logic of the inbound interaction schema, initiating at least one programmable element of the executable document object, and updating the state of the executable document object; and in response to triggering an outbound interaction schema trigger: activating the executable logic of the outbound interaction schema, and modifying the associated external resource with respect to the state of the executable document object.

System and method for electronic document interaction with external resources

A system and method for transitioning a distributed ledger network according to a legal contract that includes: establishing a contract, which comprises generating a set of programmable clauses for the contract by implementing a templating system comprised of a template model that contains the logic of each programmable clause of the set of programmable clauses; operating a distributed ledger network between participants, wherein the distributed ledger network is configured with an application model that maps to the template model; updating the contract state; updating the distributed ledger network according to the application model; in response to at least one update to the contract state, recording an update to the distributed ledger network; and in response to at least one contract-associated update in the distributed ledger network, initiating execution of at least one programmable clause of the contract and recording a subsequent update to the distributed ledger network.
