Course Overview

The SaaS Template Was Not Built for Agents

2026-06-24 13:00:00

The SaaS contract was built for software that responds, not software that acts — and unmodified SaaS templates now leave clients exposed on every axis that matters in an AI deal: agentic performance, IP and training data provenance, output ownership, and a live regulatory stack spanning the EU AI Act, Colorado AI Act, federal model risk guidance, and FDA AI oversight. With agentic deployments going mainstream, training data litigation reshaping vendor representations, and compliance deadlines already phasing in, any lawyer negotiating commercial technology agreements — in-house, outside counsel, procurement, privacy, or M&A — is already drafting AI provisions whether the contract is labeled that way or not, and operating on a SaaS rider is no longer defensible. This drafting-forward program delivers working contract language for AI-specific service levels, accuracy and fitness-for-purpose warranties, model-drift triggers, BPO-style delegation-of-authority clauses, training data reps and indemnities, tiered output ownership, and penalty-calibrated compliance allocation across the EU AI Act, Colorado AI Act, federal financial model risk guidance, and FDA AI oversight. Attendees leave able to negotiate AI agreements as the distinct contract type they have become — and to draft, allocate, and price risk their current templates cannot reach.

Drafting Service Levels and Remediation for Agentic AI

Why SaaS Contracting Fails for AI Products

Examine why standard SaaS contracting architecture is structurally inadequate for agentic AI, including platform-access licensing, broad liability caps, warranty disclaimers, vendor data rights asymmetry, pricing model disruption, and the hybrid SaaS/BPO model emerging in sophisticated AI agreements.
