What is Contractbook?

Contractbook hands the AI's extraction prompts over to the customer

Contractbook publishes short, emoji-headed notes, most of them arriving in same-day batches. The August 3 batch covered admin permission maps across spaces, OTP two-factor at login, calculations inside forms, a rebuilt search results page, and a new model behind AI data extraction. This release opens the default data fields themselves: the prompts behind each AI-detected field can be rewritten or renamed per contract type.

What is Double?

Double shifts AI economics: 93%-cheaper Standard tier and Claude Opus 5 Expert mode

Double ships on a weekly cadence with broad scope each cycle — Ask Double gains new capabilities (CSV/PDF bank imports, voice input, accruals from transactions), accounting workflows deepen (interactive financial statements across all three statements, revenue share allocations, loan receivables), and the AI model economics shift materially with the September 10 Standard/Auto/Expert tiering. The product ships Scale-tier and standard features simultaneously, signaling active enterprise expansion alongside the core SMB base.

Contractbook vs Double: editorial side-by-side

C5.0

Contractbook hands the AI's extraction prompts over to the customer

◆ Current state

Contractbook publishes short, emoji-headed notes, most of them arriving in same-day batches. The August 3 batch covered admin permission maps across spaces, OTP two-factor at login, calculations inside forms, a rebuilt search results page, and a new model behind AI data extraction. This release opens the default data fields themselves: the prompts behind each AI-detected field can be rewritten or renamed per contract type.

◆ Where it's heading

The AI extraction layer has been treated as a black box that Contractbook tunes and customers accept. Editable prompts break that — accuracy on a customer's own contract vocabulary becomes something they adjust rather than file a ticket about. It fits the wider pattern of the last few releases, where admin surfaces (space access maps, group permissions, contract-type management) are being built so companies can configure what used to be product defaults.

◆ Prediction

Once prompts are editable per contract type, per-field extraction quality becomes visible and arguable, so expect some form of confidence indicator or review step on extracted data next.

Double shifts AI economics: 93%-cheaper Standard tier and Claude Opus 5 Expert mode

◆ Current state

Double ships on a weekly cadence with broad scope each cycle — Ask Double gains new capabilities (CSV/PDF bank imports, voice input, accruals from transactions), accounting workflows deepen (interactive financial statements across all three statements, revenue share allocations, loan receivables), and the AI model economics shift materially with the September 10 Standard/Auto/Expert tiering. The product ships Scale-tier and standard features simultaneously, signaling active enterprise expansion alongside the core SMB base.

◆ Where it's heading

The AI Agents private beta — scheduled automation of recurring accounting tasks across clients — is the clearest signal of where Double is heading: not AI-assisted closes but AI-executed ones, with human handoff on review steps. The Double MCP surface gains new actions each week, and the interactive financial statement suite is now complete with Cash Flow, setting the stage for cross-statement analysis. Model tiering changes the adoption math for heavy users, which could accelerate the active-usage cohort.

◆ Prediction

A general release of the AI Agents feature (currently private beta, announced in August) is the most significant move in the pipeline. More Scale features converting to standard tier is the growth pattern visible across the last 6 weeks of releases.
