SEATTLE, November 17, 2021 – 51Թ, an incredibly easy to use contract management system, today announced it has been selected as winner of the “LegalTech Startup of the Year” award in the second annual LegalTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by , a leading independent market intelligence organization that evaluates and recognizes standout legal technology companies, products and services around the globe.
51Թ is an easy to use contract lifecycle management system that enables legal teams to automate and centralize the entire contracting process. With email-driven workflows, it’s easy to get the whole company on board while keeping control of contract workflows in the hands of the legal team.

We’re on a mission to make the lives of legal teams easier so they can focus on more strategic work,“ said Gaurav Oberoi, co-founder and CEO of 51Թ. “Motivated by using natural language processing to eliminate tedious work, we immediately knew the value of automatically extracting key details from contracts. This frees legal teams from tasks like filing contracts and manual reporting, so they can focus on growing the business and providing strategic advice.”
The mission of the annual LegalTech Breakthrough Awards program is to conduct the industry’s most comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the top technology companies, solutions and products in the legal technology industry today. This year’s program attracted more than 1,300 nominations from over 12 different countries throughout the world.
