01 / 05

How much building needs to happen before the platform delivers value?

SpotDraft is built to work for legal teams from day one, so the 2-6 week rollout gets you a working platform, not a configuration project. Agiloft's no-code architecture means almost nothing works out of the box; approval chains, fields, dashboards and workflows all get built during setup.

Agiloft
3+ months typical; most of the platform is built during setup, not before it.
02 / 05

How do teams actually edit and negotiate contracts inside each platform?

SpotDraft offers live collaboration in OnlyOffice or offline editing in Word, with complete version history. Agiloft's editing relies on its internal system, and G2 reviewers note the MS Word plugin needs more customization for team drafting.

Agiloft

03 / 05

How much flexibility do you get in approval routing and what does that flexibility cost you?

SpotDraft offers immediate conditional and ad hoc approval routing for legal teams. Agiloft excels with its no-code workflow builder, ideal for large, IT-supported teams needing complex routing. Reviewers note that the configuration process can be time-consuming.
SpotDraft
Conditional and ad hoc approvals, working immediately.
Agiloft
Fully custom no-code workflow builder; powerful, but the configuration itself takes time.
04 / 05

Does the AI produce answers on its own or does someone have to build the model behind it first?

SpotDraft's AI is ready to work immediately, analyzing counterparty redlines against your playbook without setup delays. In contrast, Agiloft's Astra AI requires configuration of its no-code platform first, complicating implementation timelines.

Agiloft
AI is on the inside, but value depends on the configuration built around it.
05 / 05

How much of the reporting works out of the box, versus needs to be built?

SpotDraft ships with self-serve, customizable dashboards for contract age, cycle times and review activity, so legal ops gets visibility from week one instead of after a reporting build. Agiloft's real-time dashboards are genuinely capable once configured, and configuring them is part of the same setup effort as everything else on the platform.

Why teams switch

Why legal teams choose SpotDraft over Agiloft

SpotDraft ships an AI-native CLM that's live in weeks, priced transparently, and backed by 24/7 support from day one, without asking your team to become platform administrators just to get value out of it. Agiloft's pitch is "configure anything." SpotDraft's pitch is "it already works." For fast-scaling legal teams without a bench of admins to run a months-long configuration project, that difference is the whole decision.
