Stigg ships natural language contract management, completing its build-out as an AI-native commercial operations layer.
Stigg has assembled a full commercial operations platform in the span of a few weeks. Contract Management moved from beta (August) to AI-skill-powered natural language management (September 14), the data export destinations expanded to connect Stigg's commercial data to existing BI stacks, and Eurozone pricing collapsed 21 per-country configurations into one. The entitlements platform's Go SDK also gained edge API support, reducing the latency of enforcement checks.
Zluri ships canvas workflows and a Segregation of Duties engine, moving from SaaS management into full IGA territory.
Zluri is in a concentrated feature-ship cycle, landing two significant enterprise compliance capabilities in one week: a visual canvas-based workflow builder (Workflows v2) that replaces a linear builder with node graphs, conditional branches, and dynamic variable support; and Segregation of Duties (SoD), a policy engine for detecting toxic access combinations with automated remediation via Playbooks. The August 30 cluster of three releases (source prioritization, instance management, activity-based status controls) built out the identity data layer these modules now operate against.

Stigg is systematically replacing ad hoc spreadsheet and CRM workarounds for RevOps teams managing sales-led deals. The arc is clear: start with self-serve pricing/entitlements, add contract management for custom enterprise terms, layer AI to make that management accessible without developer involvement, and export everything to data warehouses so it stays in sync with the rest of the business. The goal is to be the system of record for all commercial terms — self-serve and sales-led — rather than a developer dependency for pricing enforcement.
The stigg-contracts AI skill will likely expand to handle contract amendments and renewal queries, and a tighter Salesforce/HubSpot integration to close the loop from CRM opportunity to provisioned entitlements is the obvious next move — right now a deal still requires a human to bridge the two systems.

The August 30 cluster of three releases (source prioritization, instance management, activity-based status controls) built out the identity data layer these modules now operate against.
The August 30 foundation releases — source prioritization, first-class instance/account entities, activity-based status thresholds — form a coherent identity model upgrade that makes Zluri's data precise enough to power compliance automation. Workflows v2 and SODs are the enforcement layer built on top. The trajectory is clear: Zluri is systematically working up the ITAM/IGA stack from discovery → governance → compliance automation, compressing a roadmap that traditionally spans separate products.
Non-human identity (NHI) support, explicitly called out as the next step in the instance management release, is the next significant capability addition. Combined with SODs and account-level access reviews, Zluri is positioning directly against dedicated IGA tools in the SME/mid-market.
