Contract Lifecycle Management on Salesforce
Contract lifecycle management platform built natively on Salesforce, connecting legal and sales workflows. Franklin TN, raised $11M+.
Malbek is a contract lifecycle management company that has built its CLM platform natively on the Salesforce platform, enabling organizations to manage contracts directly within their existing Salesforce CRM environment rather than deploying a separate standalone system. Headquartered in Franklin, Tennessee, and having raised more than $11 million, Malbek targets mid-market and enterprise organizations where Salesforce is already the primary system of record for customer and revenue data, making contract integration with CRM a natural operational requirement.\n\nMalbek's native Salesforce architecture means that contract data — including terms, obligations, renewal dates, and amendment history — lives within the same database as customer records, opportunity data, and revenue metrics, enabling powerful cross-functional reporting and automation that Salesforce-external CLM tools cannot provide without complex integrations. Sales teams can initiate contract requests, track negotiation status, and receive renewal alerts without leaving Salesforce, while legal teams manage workflow approvals, clause libraries, and template management within the Malbek interface.\n\nThe native Salesforce CLM segment is a well-defined niche within the broader CLM market, with competitors including Conga, Apttus (now Conga), and DealHub. Malbek differentiates through its modern user experience, AI-assisted contract drafting from a clause library, and a more accessible implementation model compared to the complexity of Conga's enterprise offerings. As Salesforce continues to expand its footprint in enterprise revenue operations, the demand for native CLM capabilities that integrate seamlessly with Salesforce's Revenue Cloud and CPQ products represents a growing market for Malbek.
Indoor vertical farming company using AI-optimized growing systems. San Francisco, CA. Raised $940M+ including $400M from SoftBank. Partners with Walmart for US farms.
Plenty is a San Francisco-based indoor vertical farming company that uses AI, machine learning, and robotics to grow leafy greens and other produce in controlled indoor environments. The company has raised over $940 million from investors including SoftBank Vision Fund, which invested $200 million in 2017, and has positioned itself as the technology leader in data-driven indoor agriculture.\n\nPlenty's farms use precisely controlled light, temperature, humidity, and nutrient conditions to grow crops that are free from pesticides, use 99% less land, and consume significantly less water than conventional field agriculture. The company's AI systems continuously optimize growing conditions based on sensor data, learning to improve yields and quality across crops and growing cycles.\n\nIn 2022, Plenty announced a landmark partnership with Walmart to supply leafy greens from a new large-scale facility in Compton, California. This partnership provided both a major commercial anchor and significant additional funding from Walmart, validating Plenty's technology and business model at scale. The company also operates a dedicated strawberry R&D partnership with Driscoll's, the world's largest berry company, demonstrating the platform's potential beyond leafy greens.
