New platform delivers policy-driven compliance, proactive contractual risk management, and rapid response to external disruptions — start for free, scale as you grow

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Agiloft, the global leader in data-first contract lifecycle management (CLM), today announced Agiloft Astra™, a contracts AI platform built for legal, procurement, sales, and finance, which illuminates contract data to create actionable decisions, designed to help enterprises unlock the full business value of their contracts. The platform introduces a free tier, giving teams a way to get started without the cost and rollout typically associated with enterprise-grade contract analytics tools.

Astra addresses two of the primary barriers to adopting contracts AI: cost and data security. With Astra, teams can begin using AI immediately to analyze agreements, identify risks, and extract insights, without entering a procurement process or committing budget.

The platform operates under the Astra Clean Data Promise, ensuring that all customer data in Astra is used solely to deliver the service and comply with applicable laws. Unlike many AI providers who use data from free accounts to train their models, Agiloft Astra guarantees the same data policies and protection to free users as it does to paying customers.

“One of the biggest barriers to contract technology has always been access, and Astra is built to tear that down,” said Otto Hanson, VP of Product and GM of Astra at Agiloft. “Its power is not only in what it does, but also in who it makes you: a smarter, more strategic contract professional who can see patterns, anticipate outcomes, and negotiate smarter than ever before. With a free entry point, we are making that possible for any team, any organization – no lengthy procurement, no upfront investment, just contracts AI you can put to work from the moment you are inside the platform.”

With Astra’s agentic AI capabilities and complimentary expert-authored playbooks, users can transform contract data into structured, actionable analyses that helps organizations reduce risk, strengthen compliance, prevent revenue leakage, and accelerate decisions across the business. Astra powers intelligent automation for every industry function, including:

Legal: As organizations race to keep up with evolving regulations like AI governance and data privacy laws, Astra transforms contract review into real-time risk control.Procurement: As supply chains face turbulent disruption from tariffs, geopolitical shifts, and vendor instability, Astra can identify contract exposure early and mitigate external risk.Finance: Amid ongoing margin pressure and tighter scrutiny on revenue, Astra uncovers hidden pricing inconsistencies, missed discounts, and leakage across contracts to protect financial outcomes.Sales: With deals stalling under longer approval cycles and increasing complexity, Astra accelerates negotiations through instant contract review and AI-driven redlining.

“With Astra, we’re transforming how teams understand and act on contracts,” said Andy Wishart, Chief Product Officer at Agiloft. “By turning agreements into actionable data, we reduce repetitive work, enable smarter decisions, and free teams to focus on high-value priorities that drive ROI.”

“Sophisticated contracts AI has improved significantly in recent years, but broader adoption has been limited by challenges around accessibility and governance,” said Patrick Reymann, Research Director, Procurement Applications and Agents at IDC. “The downstream effect of those gaps shows up everywhere: in compliance exposures that go undetected, in revenue that quietly walks out the door, in negotiating teams that are outmatched before they sit down. The combination of an accessible entry point with data protection commitments that Agiloft Astra™ brings to market directly addresses the two barriers that matter most to legal, procurement, finance, and sales teams – and in an environment where regulatory complexity is accelerating, the timing could not be more relevant.”

Astra is available through a free tier with usage-based credits. Organizations can join the waitlist today to access the exclusive Astra Early Access program: agiloft.com/astra.

To experience Astra’s next level contracting solutions in action, visit Agiloft at the Corporate Legal Operations Consortium (CLOC) on May 11–14, 2026 at booth #131.

MONTVALE, N.J., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The JURA C9 is an award-winning, fully automatic coffee machine that satisfies two worlds of indulgence for coffee lovers by offering 17 coffee specialties from strong espresso and flat white to an aromatic, mild Light Brew. The C9 is the first JURA model to feature a new innovation process to prepare a Light Brew specialty. Compact yet versatile in function, the C9 combines JURA’s innovative brewing technology with design cues inspired by the brand’s premium line.

Limitless Coffee Combinations with the C9
The C9‘s Easy Control Panel with 2.8-inch button color display allows users to choose between two ‘worlds’ — Classic Hot Brew or Light Brew — to determine the brewing style for their selected specialty, with options for customization by adjusting temperature, coffee strength, and milk volume. With three brewing processes, full-size brewing unit, and Professional Aroma Grinder (P.A.G.), the C9 delivers an exponential number of possible combinations, giving users the ability to tailor every cup to their exact preference. A dedicated powder chute for pre-ground beans provides an easy option for preparing decaffeinated coffee.

Light Brew for a mild, easy-to-drink coffee experience
Light Brew reflects the growing demand for gentler, less intense coffee options. JURA’s exclusive Light Extraction Process automatically prepares Light Brew specialties with 10% less ground coffee and brews at a lower temperature. The result is a specialty that’s mild, aromatic and ready to enjoy immediately.

Hot Brew for a bold, robust coffee experience
Hot Brew delivers full-bodied and aromatic specialties, strong espresso and coffee. For even more intensity, a special setting increases the amount of ground coffee used per shot, extracting the fullest flavor and aroma from short specialty beverages.

Elegant, Award-Winning Design
The design of the C9 reflects the aesthetic cues of JURA’s premium models. Its convex-concave front and iconic wave-shaped accents create a distinctive look, while the chrome-plated cup grille adds a refined touch. The 2.8-inch color display is seamlessly integrated, ensuring intuitive and efficient operation.

The C9 Piano Inox won the International Housewares Association’s 2026 Global Innovation Awards (gia) for Excellence in Product Design in the Kitchen Electrics category. An independent panel of industry experts recognized products in 12 housewares categories on innovation, appearance, user benefits, sustainability, and more.

Smart Technology

For those who want connected convenience, an optional Wi-Fi Connect V2 accessory allows the C9 to be paired with the JURA Operating Experience (J.O.E.®) app, enabling control directly from a smartphone or tablet. The user can watch instructional videos, customize product settings, create taste profiles, and more from the app.

The JURA C9 comes in three high-gloss front panel finishes – Piano Black, Piano White, and the new Piano Inox.

JURA offers the largest assortment of fully automatic coffee machines, with actual retail prices ranging from $1,199 to $5,499. For more information, visit jura.com.
