The Lean Legal Team’s Contract Data Guide
A practical guide to turning the contracts you already have into executive-ready insights, with lessons from legal leaders who’ve done it at every scale.

What's inside
- Contracts as a business dataset. Why your agreements already hold a map of your business, and how to start reading it.
- What the technology makes possible now. The questions you can answer across a whole portfolio that were impossible before.
- Lessons from people who’ve done it. Andy Dale, Travis Zimbelman (15 years in legal ops at Google and Meta) and Brent Farese.
- Where to start today. Cleaning your data, picking first metrics, evaluating tools and getting buy-in in the first 90 days.
