Product Update: January 2026

A dedicated workflow for contract renewals, smarter email automation, expanded file support, and organization-wide AI customization.

Contract Renewal Workflow

A guided flow for renewals: capture what you know, get negotiation leverage, and find alternatives.

What changes for you:

• Start with “🔄 Renewal” and get negotiation points and alternatives in minutes
• AI analyzes your current contract and suggests leverage points

Smarter Email Handling

More flexible vendor communication — control when Sunny responds, give instructions by email, and manage everything from a cleaner interface.

What changes for you:

• When vendors request evaluation scores or internal feedback, Sunny drafts professional responses with appropriate disclosure levels
• Control Sunny without logging in — CC yourself, reply to Sunny only with instructions, and Sunny follows them in the next vendor response
• Switch vendors between Auto and Manual mode anytime from the Vendors panel
• Suspicious emails flagged for review — domain changes, reply-to mismatches, and spoofing attempts detected automatically

Expanded File Support

Upload Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoints, and CSVs alongside your PDFs.

What changes for you:

• Analyze contracts, pricing sheets, and comparison tables directly in your project
• Batch upload with drag-and-drop
• Attach files in chat and get instant analysis from Sunny

Vendor Discovery

Search your organization's existing vendors before adding new ones.

What changes for you:

• Ask Sunny "Any tools for LinkedIn outreach?" and get relevant vendors already in your system
• Reduce vendor sprawl by surfacing approved options first

Vendor Outreach

Instantly find the right contacts, and start the conversation with vendors.

What changes for you:

• Tell Sunny a vendor name; it finds verified sales contacts with emails and LinkedIn profiles
• Draft and send introductory emails directly from Glidely

Custom AI Instructions

Define how Sunny behaves across your organization — enforce policies, set thresholds, and align AI guidance with your procurement rules.

What changes for you:

• Set rules like "Prioritize existing vendors" or "Require ROI analysis for requests over $100K"
• Ensure consistent, policy-compliant guidance across all projects and users

In-App Help from Sunny

Ask Sunny how to use Glidely — get step-by-step guidance without leaving your workflow.

What changes for you:

• Type questions like "How do I add a project member?" and get instant answers
• No searching through documentation or waiting for support
