Registry Sorting: Visualizing Activity

Finding the Pulse

In a large contract portfolio, the most important question is not what you have, but what is happening right now. Our Contract Registry previously defaulted to sorting by upload date, giving no signal about which contracts were actively being worked on.

The new Last Action Sorting capability transforms the registry into a live activity feed.

What Counts as a Last Action

The Last Action timestamp is a composite of several event types, ensuring the sort order reflects true operational activity.

• AI Analysis Events: The completion of a Mike AI analysis or a retroactive DDO health check updates the last action timestamp.
• Redline Applications: Any applied, dismissed, or deferred redline — individual or batch — is recorded as a last action.
• Manual Edits and Comments: User-generated events, including inline edits and timeline comments, also advance the timestamp.

The User Impact

1. 1.Morning Triage: Legal ops managers use Last Action sort as their first action of the day, immediately seeing which contracts had overnight AI activity requiring attention.
2. 2.Delegation Clarity: When assigning work to team members, managers can quickly identify which contracts are cold and have been idle the longest.
3. 3.Compliance Sweep Navigation: During a regulatory sweep, the sort ensures recently modified contracts are reviewed in priority order.

A Pulse on the Portfolio

By surfacing activity signals at the registry level, we have given legal operations managers a single, intuitive view into the health and momentum of their entire contract portfolio.
