Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNikhil Kodkani is an independent Product Lead and strategy advisor with 15+ years building and scaling enterprise SaaS platforms across CLM, document generation, workflow automation, and revenue systems. He founded and shipped CLM and document products at Vlocity and Salesforce—taking multiple offerings from 0→1 to thousands of customers—and now focuses on the under-served post-signature contract operations problem. Nikhil blends product leadership with practical AI application (RAG, vector search, agents) to turn static contracts into structured, actionable intelligence that prevents missed renewals and obligations. He has deep experience aligning Legal, Sales, Finance, and IT to reduce cycle times and tie contract systems into CRM/CPQ and revenue operations, particularly in regulated industries like healthcare, telecom, and financial services. An entrepreneur at heart, he’s building ObliSpace to operationalize obligations and deadlines directly against clauses, revealing a pattern he’s seen repeatedly: great CLMs optimize signatures but fail at follow-through. Based in San Francisco with an MS in Computer Engineering, he pairs systems-level thinking with hands-on product execution and GTM experience.
