Momentum Highlighted by Three Acquisitions, Extensive Product Innovation and More Than 2,800 Corporate Legal Department Customers Worldwide

HOUSTON, February 22, 2022 – Onit, Inc., a leading provider of enterprise workflow solutions including enterprise legal management and contract lifecycle management, today announced rapid growth in 2021 fueled by significant accomplishments that include closing three strategic acquisitions in five months, key launches of AI-enabled products that help corporate legal departments modernize contract management and legal invoice review and processing $8.3 billion in legal invoices across Onit and its subsidiaries.

The accomplishments speak to its continued success and innovation as it celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2021. When founded, it began with a no-code platform and a goal to disrupt the enterprise legal management market. In the past decade, Onit has evolved into a global legal technology conglomerate with enterprise legal management and contract lifecycle management technologies for corporate legal departments of all sizes.

“Each day, more than 2,800 corporate legal departments worldwide rely on Onit and its family of companies to capitalize on operational efficiencies and cost savings,” Eric M. Elfman, CEO and co-founder of Onit, said. “It’s our mission to ensure that they have sophisticated tools and experts to help build on their results, something exemplified by our 2021 acquisition strategy and product portfolio expansion. This year will find us focused on additional, untapped opportunities that will not only accelerate Onit’s growth but continue to empower our customers to modernize their legal operations and build a connected enterprise.” 

Enterprise Legal Management Leadership

In 2021, Onit became one of the world’s largest enterprise legal management conglomerates with the acquisition of BusyLamp, a premier provider of legal spend and matter management software for European corporate legal departments. Together, Onit and its legal operations management subsidiaries SimpleLegal and BusyLamp processed $8.3 billion in legal invoices last year and have a shared history of more than 600 implementations worldwide.

Onit expanded its enterprise legal management solutions with the acquisition of Bodhala in September 2021. Bodhala, a legal spend analytics, benchmarking and market intelligence leader, applies machine learning and AI to help companies source outside counsel at competitive and market-driven rates.

Continuing its commitment to product innovation, Onit debuted InvoiceAI, its AI-enabled review for both historical and real-time invoices. The product has already won a 2022 BIG Innovation Award and joins Onit’s 2021 Gold Globee award in software development for its enterprise legal management solution.

Growing Momentum for Contract Lifecycle Management

Onit continued its advancement in the contract lifecycle management market, with IDC naming it a Major Player and the launch of new AI technologies for contract management. Automate NDA uses AI to streamline and automate the entire nondisclosure agreement process, reducing the time spent on NDAs by 70%. Smart Checklists, offered as part of the ReviewAI Microsoft Word add-in, turns playbook checks into intelligent, actionable and collaborative tasks.

In 2021, the company extended its contract management market reach to midsize and smaller companies. Its acquisition of SecureDocs, which closed in 2021 and was announced in January, expanded Onit’s product portfolio with a quickly deployable contract management software. Now, customers have technologies for companies at any stage in legal operations – from newly established to worldwide operations. SecureDocs will integrate with SimpleLegal to empower greater efficiencies, transparency and intelligence for legal operations teams.

Increasing productivity and organization within a legal team is a growing priority – which is why Matthew Pentz, Assistant Town Attorney of Town of Cary, worked with his in-house legal team to bring in LawVu.

Before implementation, the team was operating “rudimentarily,” using running lists and searching through Outlook to manage matters. Since bringing in legal software, the team has a clear understanding of their value and complete transparency over team metrics:

“Knowledge is power and LawVu increases our knowledge. It increases the speed and efficiency of accessing the knowledge that we have, as well as leverages the experiences of team members in a more efficient and standardized manner.”
