A system and method for establishing a verified computing environment for executing data-driven contracts, comprising a cryptographic directed acyclic graph object model of a data-driven contract, wherein at least a subset of the objects in the MDAG correspond to clause state of at least one programmable clause of the data-driven contract; at a computing environment, administrating the data-driven contract in accordance with the MDAG which can include at least one execution instance comprised of: receiving a contract input to contract logic of the data-driven contract, processing the input according to the clause logic, in response to the contract input, generating at least one updated state object and generating at least one output object, and for each generated object, hash-linking the generated object to an object associated with the creation of the generated object.

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.

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.

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.

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.

An entity grammar that specifies a computer conversational agent may be received. User utterances are interpreted based on the entity grammar and prompts for the conversational agent to pose are determined based on the entity grammar. An outcome of the dialog is built by storing words in the user utterances and the prompts that match tokens in the entity grammar. The entity grammar specifies both a dialog flow and data structure of the outcome.

Conversational computer agent and outcome

A computer-implemented conversational agent engages in a natural language conversation with a user, interpreting the natural language conversation by parsing and tokenizing utterances in the natural language conversation. Based on interpreting, a set of utterances in the natural language conversation to be recorded as a macro is determined. The macro is stored in a database with an associated macro identifier. Replaying of the macro executes a function specified in the set of utterances.
