SirionLabs ramps up its investment in CLM with US$85mn
SirionLabs, a global leader in AI-powered contract lifecycle management (CLM) has successfully completed its Series D funding round led by Partners Group.
Securing US$85mn, SirionLabs has raised its total funding to US$175mn since its founding in 2012 by Ajay Agrawal, Kanti Prabha, Aditya Gupta and Claude Marais.
With the enterprise contract lifecycle management (CLM) market value expected to reach US$3.3bn by 2027, SirionLabs plans to use its latest funding to expand its leadership position in the industry.
“The two biggest challenges in CLM are aligning post-award performance with contract terms and automating the import of legacy documents using AI,” said Ajay Agrawal, Co-founder and CEO of SirionLabs.
Agrawal added: “The SirionOne platform has a compelling technology advantage in both of these areas. This capital allows us to seize the moment, accelerate product innovation and bring our award-winning solution to an increasing number of enterprise customers.”

With its latest funding of US$85mn, SirionLabs will scale its operations, adding up to 200 employees to its global workforce.

Driver added: “The addressable market for CLM is expanding rapidly as more organisations undertake digital transformation initiatives. We were attracted by SirionLabs’ leadership in this category, superior product offering, and blue-chip client base, and look forward to working with management on increasing scale-up capacity.”
