DocuSign acquires AI-powered contract management firm Lexion


DocuSign has announced a deal to acquire Lexion, a startup building an AI-powered contract management firm, for $165 million.

But it slowly expanded with tools to address various use cases and challenges in document creation for teams across not only legal departments, but sales, IT, HR and finance.
