John Hall: Thanks, David. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us. Q1 was a defining quarter for Intapp. This was the quarter we made Intapp Celeste generally available. In the weeks since, we've seen Firm AI moving from launch to adoption, a leading AI ecosystem building around Celeste and more clients moving to the cloud. There are three categories of AI in professional firms today. Horizontal AI speeds up everyday tasks for workers. Practice AI helps professionals with their individual work product, like a brief or a diligence memo. Both horizontal AI and Practice AI live at the desk. Firm AI is AI for the business of the firm. That means winning clients, clearing conflicts, screening deals, capturing time, and managing engagement economics. That's where growth, market share, and operating margin are decided.

Speaker #3: There are three categories of AI in professional firms today: horizontal AI speeds up everyday tasks for workers; practice AI helps professionals with their individual work product—like a brief or a diligence memo; both horizontal AI and practice AI live at the desk; firm AI is AI for the business of the firm.

Speaker #3: That means winning clients; clearing conflicts; screening deals; capturing time; and managing engagement economics. That's where growth, market share, and operating margin are decided. It depends on the firm's own data and compliance rules.

John Hall: It depends on the firm's own data and compliance rules, which generic AI tools can't and shouldn't be allowed to reach. Horizontal AI and practice AI make individuals faster. Firm AI makes the firm bigger. Our job is to deliver Firm AI and to govern AI on behalf of the firm wherever the firm's people use it. Firm AI is resonating at the very top of the world's leading firms. Our Firm AI blueprint is circulating among managing partners and management committees. The number of senior leaders we're meeting with now is unlike anything I've seen in the past. We're talking to firm owners and leaders because AI for the business of the firm is their priority, and it's a lane that is uniquely ours. on 15 July, Celeste became generally available across all the industries we serve. Firm AI is an enterprise decision affecting the entire organization.

Speaker #3: On July 15, Celeste became generally available across all the industries we serve. Firm AI is an enterprise decision affecting the entire organization. Firm leaders are starting with the governance question across the entire firm.

John Hall: Firm leaders are starting with the governance question across the entire firm. With news stories every week about AI agents operating without controls, firms are choosing carefully, and governance is a key reason why they're choosing Intapp. Since GA, our Celeste pipeline has grown 2 to 3 times and has never been larger, with more firms moving from trials into deployment. What's working is consistent across the industries we serve. Firms start where Firm AI delivers value fastest in DealCloud screening, intake and conflicts, and time capture, and then expand from there. We have already activated DealCloud with Celeste for more than 150 clients. on 19 August, we made Celeste the core of two of our largest product families. Compliance with Celeste brings agentic workflows into Intapp Intake, Intapp Conflicts, and Intapp Terms. Time with Celeste does the same for Intapp Time. Firm AI generates revenue in three ways.

Speaker #3: On August 19, we made Celeste the core of two of our largest product families: compliance with Celeste brings agentic workflows into Intapp intake, conflicts, and terms.

Speaker #3: And time with Celeste does the same for Intapp time. Firm AI generates revenue in three ways: existing clients upgrade through new entitlements on products they already run.

John Hall: Existing clients upgrade through new entitlements on products they already run. New clients choose Celeste-powered products from day one. Firms pay to govern every third-party AI tool they connect. Confidentiality has been one of the largest barriers to AI adoption at law firms. A firm cannot put thousands of lawyers on an AI tool if its ethical walls stop at the edge of it. That's why Intapp Walls for AI is becoming the governance layer for AI in professional firms. More than 70 of the Am Law 100 rely on Intapp Walls. Walls for AI extends those same policies automatically into the AI platforms their lawyers use. That now includes the two leading practice AI platforms in legal. Our Harvey integration became generally available this past quarter and is already seeing adoption.

John Hall: At ILTACON in August, we announced a strategic partnership with Legora that brings Walls for AI and Intapp Time into Legora. Whichever platform a firm chooses, or if it chooses both, the governance is the same, and it's Intapp's. Also at ILTACON, we introduced the Intapp Profitability Network, which extends Intapp beyond systems of record into a connected profitability ecosystem. Its eight founding partners, Capacity, Engage AI Solutions, Legora, LexPipe, Narrative, Oddr, Zebraworks, and Zenvoice, help firms manage how they price, staff, capture, bill, and collect on every matter. Our ecosystem has become one of the clearest validations of our Firm AI strategy. When OpenAI launched OpenAI for Law, it selected Intapp to bring the business of the firm into ChatGPT. DealCloud with Celeste is part of the ChatGPT for Financial Services ecosystem. Celeste connectors are also available in Anthropic's Claude.

John Hall: The leading horizontal AI platforms are coming to Intapp because we sit where industry workflows, trusted data, and AI meet. That ecosystem is also becoming a growth engine for Celeste. Our data, AI, platform, and services partners extend what Celeste can do and help firms adopt and expand it. In Q1, partner-involved co-sell grew 34% year over year, and co-sell with Microsoft grew 26%. Our partners bring AI to the individual. We bring AI to the firm. Let me share a few highlights from the quarter. Cloud ARR grew 28% year over year and now accounts for 85% of our total ARR. We have more than 1,400 clients with more than $50,000 of ARR, including 908 with more than $100,000. Cloud net revenue retention was consistent at 123%. Following a record Q4, cloud migrations remained above historical levels in Q1. Celeste's general availability is a big part of that demand.

Speaker #3: Following a record Q4, Cloud migrations remained above historical levels in Q1. Celeste's general availability is a big part of that demand. As we transitioned clients, from the on-premises version, of intake, conflicts, and terms, demand for compliance with Celeste helped bring firms to the cloud.

John Hall: As we transitioned clients from the on-premises version of Intake, Conflicts, and Terms, demand for Compliance with Celeste helped bring firms to the cloud. Walls for AI is also adding to that momentum. On average, on-premises clients ultimately spend significantly more with Intapp once they move to the cloud. Every migration is an opportunity to grow, and we are seeing firms choose Intapp to do more. Let's take a look at some client wins this quarter. Starting with legal, we saw a mix of existing clients expand and new clients join. A top 10 global law firm and an Intapp client for more than a decade is moving its compliance suite to the Intapp cloud and adding Celeste. They chose to reaffirm their commitment to Intapp in one of the largest deals in our history. Walls for AI drove several wins in legal.

Our thesis, AI for the business of the firm, is resonating with the market, and the core drivers of our path of $1 billion in ARR are in place. Extending cloud mix, deepening penetration of named accounts, expanding Celeste adoption and monetization, ramping AI partner collaboration, and delivering more margin expansion. We crossed into fiscal 2027 with general availability launch of Celeste in July, Compliance with Celeste and Time with Celeste in August, and the broader declaration of Intapp's agentic firm AI value proposition. Where horizontal AI serves everyone and practice AI serves the individual practitioner, firm AI is built for the business of the firm.

David Morton: A vertically focused preview event in support of the GA release this quarter are generating all-time high qualified Celeste pipeline, up approximately 2.5 times quarter over quarter, which gives us confidence in FY27. Firm AI, now with Celeste as the re-architected core platform across our growth, compliance, and profitability offerings, represented more than 40% of net new bookings in FQ1, up from over 20% last quarter. Demand is running ahead of our ability to engage, run proofs of concept, and deploy. Celeste is a true enterprise deployment configured around each firm's data, playbooks, and professional governance. We are adding deployment capacity to catch up to demand, and Walls for AI had its strongest contribution quarter since its release.

As we look ahead each incremental playbook release use case discovery proof of concept process and pilot term deployed adopter will build references and proof points for a Celeste sales motion anchored with the firm leaders.

David Morton: As we look ahead, each incremental playbook release, use case discovery, proof of concept process, and pilot turn deployed adopter will build references and proof points for a Celeste sales motion anchored with the firm leaders. Business of the firm transformation grounded in enterprise governance is a strategic systems decision. This means buy-in at the highest level. Client managing partners and management committees are increasingly calling on us for Celeste. As more firms adopt Celeste, their proprietary data and playbooks compound inside the platform, deepening the moat for each client. That gives us confidence in the demand ahead as we invest into the agentic TAM opportunity to serve and grow with our professional firms. On to the FQ1 results. Subscription revenue was $125.5 million, up 29% year over year, accelerating from 27% in FQ4, reflected a continued strong expand motion highlighted by our AI offerings.

David Morton: License revenue was $23 million, down 21% year over year, reflecting the continued shortening of on-premise contract durations, many to one year or less, as these clients prepare to move to the cloud for an agentic first future. We continue to move on-prem clients to the cloud, supported by AI transformation and access to Celeste. We expect this dynamic to continue as the fiscal year progresses. Professional services revenue totaled $12.7 million, up 3% year over year, and now represents just 8% of total revenue as we continue to leverage our services partner organization for wider scale implementation support. Total revenue was $161.3 million, up 16% year over year, reflecting the continued strong growth in subscription revenue, which is steadily progressing towards 80% mix.

Bella Camaj: Hi, this is Bella Camaj for Alexi. Thanks for taking our questions. To start, the Q2 total revenue guide implies a sequential decline despite continued strong subscription growth and the full-year revenue outlook moved modestly higher. Can you walk through what is driving the Q2 dynamic and whether this is primarily the ongoing license transition timing or anything you are seeing in the underlying demand environment?

Bella Camaj: Hi, this is Bella Camaj for Alexi. Thanks for taking our questions. To start, the Q2 total revenue guide implies a sequential decline despite continued strong subscription growth and the full-year revenue outlook moved modestly higher. Can you walk through what is driving the Q2 dynamic and whether this is primarily the ongoing license transition timing or anything you are seeing in the underlying demand environment?

Speaker #3: Hi this is Bella Tomazon for Alexi. Thanks for taking our questions. So to start the two Q total revenue guide implies a sequential decline despite continued strong subscription growth and the full year revenue outlook has moved modestly higher.

Speaker #3: So can you walk through what is driving the QQ dynamic and whether this is primarily the ongoing license transition timing or anything you're seeing in the underlying demand environment?

David Morton: No, that is exactly it, right? Because we specifically guide to total subscription, then what you have is the total revenue. Obviously, we continue to excel and overachieve on some of our on-prem to cloud motion as they want to take advantage of all of our agentic offerings, and even more so. As we continue to go through that transition, that is where you are starting to see an acceleration there, and it is really hitting us in FQ2. But as far as the basic fundamentals on subscription as well as total services, those are all very much intact. That is what you are seeing within FQ2 specifically, then it plays through for the remainder of the fiscal year.

David Morton: No, that is exactly it, right? Because we specifically guide to total subscription, then what you have is the total revenue. Obviously, we continue to excel and overachieve on some of our on-prem to cloud motion as they want to take advantage of all of our agentic offerings, and even more so. As we continue to go through that transition, that is where you are starting to see an acceleration there, and it is really hitting us in FQ2. But as far as the basic fundamentals on subscription as well as total services, those are all very much intact. That is what you are seeing within FQ2 specifically, then it plays through for the remainder of the fiscal year.

Speaker #2: No that's exactly it right because we specifically guide to total subscription and then what you have is the total revenue. So obviously we continue to excel and overachieve on some of our on-prem to cloud motion as they want to take advantage of all of our agentic offerings and even more so and so as we continue to go through that transition that's where you're starting to see an acceleration there and it's really hitting us in FQ2.

Speaker #2: But as far as the basic fundamentals on subscription as well as total services those are all very much intact. So that's what you're seeing within FQ2 specifically and then a place through for the remainder of the fiscal year.

Bella Camaj: Got it. That makes sense. As a quick follow-up. Cloud ARR grew 28% and volume of migrations remained above historical levels this quarter. Thinking about that, and now that Celeste is GA and helping drive cloud migrations, how often do you think about the mix of growth for migrations versus expansion among existing customers and versus new logos, and whether Celeste can help sustain that momentum as the migration opportunity gets smaller?

Bella Camaj: Got it. That makes sense. As a quick follow-up. Cloud ARR grew 28% and volume of migrations remained above historical levels this quarter. Thinking about that, and now that Celeste is GA and helping drive cloud migrations, how often do you think about the mix of growth for migrations versus expansion among existing customers and versus new logos, and whether Celeste can help sustain that momentum as the migration opportunity gets smaller?

Speaker #3: Got it. That makes sense. And as a quick follow-up so cloud ARR grew 28% and you noted migrations remained above historical levels this quarter.

Speaker #3: So thinking about that and now that Celeste is GA and helping drive cloud migrations how should we think about the mix of growth for migrations versus expansion among existing customers and then versus new logos and whether Celeste can help sustain that momentum as the migration opportunity gets smaller?

David Morton: Absolutely. Really our key focus is on the agentic opportunity, and bringing that forward. We still have a lot of remaining clients today that we are working on, as you heard in my prepared remarks, that we cannot necessarily keep up with demand. We are constrained and working aggressively to fix that with our specific firm-deployed engineers, with all the pilots underway currently today. But even as you think about all of the pipe in front of us, not only for total Intapp, but also for specifically on Celeste, we have a lot of net new logos as well as expand opportunities there. For us, we are very confident on maintaining these prescribed growth rates as we have narrated around and guided to.

David Morton: Absolutely. Really our key focus is on the agentic opportunity, and bringing that forward. We still have a lot of remaining clients today that we are working on, as you heard in my prepared remarks, that we cannot necessarily keep up with demand.

Speaker #2: Absolutely. And so really our key focus is on the agentic opportunity and bringing that forward. We still have a lot of remaining clients today that we're working on.

Speaker #2: As you heard in my prepared remarks that we can't necessarily keep up with demand. We are constrained in working aggressively to fix that with our specific firm deployed engineers.

Speaker #2: With all the pilots underway currently today but then even as you think about all of the pipe in front of us not only for total Intapp but also for specifically on Celeste we have a lot of net new logos as well as expand opportunities there.

Speaker #2: And so for us we're very confident on maintaining these prescribed growth rates as we've narrated around and guided to.

Bella Camaj: Understood. That is very helpful. Thank you.

Bella Camaj: Understood. That is very helpful. Thank you.

Kevin McVeigh: Great. Thanks so much, and congratulations on the continued execution. I wonder, could you just help us? It sounds like you announced some new or enhanced strategic collaborations with OpenAI, Moody's, Legora, and then I think you mentioned Harvey in the prepared remarks. So maybe help us understand what you are doing with Legora relative to Harvey and how those alliances overall compare with the existing Microsoft and KPMG alliances that you have had so much success with.

Kevin McVeigh: Sure, John.

Speaker #4: Sure John.

John Hall: The ecosystem that is forming around Celeste is fantastic. It includes the horizontal AI players, both Anthropic and OpenAI, and the practice AI players, both Harvey and Legora. Our category is the Firm AI category. We are talking to the senior leaders of the firm about how to agentify the macro business process that the firm runs, from winning new clients or sourcing new investment opportunities to onboarding those and getting through the whole compliance and due diligence step of onboarding those opportunities, to executing, managing the deals and the assets over their life cycle or executing the client engagements over time.

Speaker #5: Ecosystem that is forming around Celeste is fantastic. It includes the horizontal AI players both Anthropic and OpenAI and the practice AI players both Harvey and Legora and our category is the firm AI category.

Speaker #5: So we are talking to the senior leaders of the firm about how to agentify the macro business process that the firm runs. From winning new clients or sourcing new investment opportunities to onboarding those and getting through the whole compliance and due diligence step of onboarding those opportunities to executing managing the deals and the assets over their life cycle or executing the client engagements over time.

Speaker #5: So that large business process we refer to the opportunity for agentifying that as firm AI and it really sets us apart from the horizontal players who are trying to provide great tools to the individuals in the firm or the practice specific players who are trying to provide specific document manipulation capabilities on the desk.

John Hall: That large business process, we refer to the opportunity for agentifying that as Firm AI, and it really sets us apart from the horizontal players who are trying to provide great tools to the individuals in the firm or the practice-specific players who are trying to provide specific document manipulation capabilities on the desk. Both of which are great opportunities, but there is a gigantic space if you look at the labor pool that runs these firms, particularly the business services functions that support all the professionals. It is a giant portion of the firm's OpEx. The opportunity to agentify that requires a whole compliance capability because the firms are highly regulated in the way that they execute those business processes and workflows. It is a huge untapped space that Intapp is perfectly positioned to go pursue.

Speaker #5: Both of which are great opportunities but there is a gigantic space if you look at the labor pool that runs these firms particularly the business services functions that support all the professionals it's a giant portion of the firm's opex.

Speaker #5: And the opportunity to agentify that requires a whole compliance capability because the firms are highly regulated in the way that they execute those business processes and workflows.

Speaker #5: And it's a huge untapped space that Intapp is perfectly positioned to go pursue. And in order to do that we have our Celeste strategy our firm AI playbooks and now co-workers and agents to help them pursue those business processes for the entire firm and get cost effectiveness and operational efficiency and client success out of it.

John Hall: In order to do that, we have our Celeste strategy, our Firm AI playbooks, and now coworkers and agents to help them pursue those business processes for the entire firm and get cost effectiveness and operational efficiency and client success out of it. But at the same time, interoperating with the tools at the desk, whether that is OpenAI or Anthropic or that is Harvey or Legora. Our ecosystem strategy, consistent with our whole history, is to work well with the universe of tools that exist inside the firm. What you saw us do over the past 6 to 9 months, and in particular this quarter, was make some major announcements to communicate the growing ecosystem of integrations that Celeste works with running from the center of the firm in a governed way. In fact, our platform with Walls for AI is the governance system for those tools now.

Speaker #5: But at the same time interoperating with the tools at the desk whether that's OpenAI or Anthropic or that's Harvey or Legora. So our ecosystem strategy consistent with our whole history is to work well with the universe of tools that exist inside the firm.

Speaker #5: So what you saw us do over the past six to nine months and in particular this quarter was make some major announcements to communicate the growing ecosystem of integrations that Celeste works with running from the center of the firm in a governed way.

Speaker #5: And in fact our platform with Wall Street AI is the governance system for those tools now. So the firms can have more confidence deploying those desk tools if they are governed by Intapp which is a huge opportunity for us as well.

John Hall: The firms can have more confidence deploying those desk tools if they are governed by Intapp, which is a huge opportunity for us as well.

John Hall: The firms can have more confidence deploying those desk tools if they are governed by Intapp, which is a huge opportunity for us as well.

Kevin McVeigh: Super helpful. John, just to whomever, just one point of clarification. Just remind us, you talked about the sensitivity of on-prem to the cloud, what the uptick is versus post-AI versus pre, because I thought initially way back it was the conversion was net neutral to revenue, but it sounds like it is significantly more today. Did I hear that right, or maybe just could you repeat that comment?

Kevin McVeigh: Super helpful. John, just to whomever, just one point of clarification. Just remind us, you talked about the sensitivity of on-prem to the cloud, what the uptick is versus post-AI versus pre, because I thought initially way back it was the conversion was net neutral to revenue, but it sounds like it is significantly more today. Did I hear that right, or maybe just could you repeat that comment?

Speaker #4: Super helpful. And then John just to whomever just one point of clarification. Just remind us you talked about the sensitivity of kind of on-prem to the cloud what the uptick is versus host AI versus pre because I thought initially way back it was kind of the conversion was net neutral to revenue but it sounds like it's significantly more today.

Speaker #4: Did I hear that right or maybe just could you repeat that comment?

Speaker #2: Yeah Kevin. Well the ARR right when you sign a contract you'll take some upfront and then the rest will transfer when you deploy. The revenue gets a little trickier as you work through two year or three year specifically duration of deals if it wasn't upon renewal.

David Morton: Well, the ARR, right. When you sign a contract, you will take some upfront, and then the rest will transfer when you deploy. The revenue gets a little trickier as you work through two-year or three-year, specifically, duration of deals if it was not upon renewal. The net of it is we are still seeing uptick when we do move it from on-prem to cloud, when we get them deployed. Yes, we are seeing them even outside of Celeste. We are still seeing that uptick of 20% or 30%. The acceleration of going from on-prem to cloud that we are seeing is really so that our key clients could take even more advantage of all of our agentic offerings, which is causing, not causing, but actually accelerating that motion.

Luke Radice: Hi. Good evening, team. This is Luke Radice on for Terry. Thank you for taking my question. I just want to go further into Compliance with Celeste and Time with Celeste and talk more about the transition for customers on the current product. Are these new products something customers pay extra for, or is it an upgrade for current subscribers? Based on that response, that is the way that we should be thinking about it for future rebuilt products with Celeste?

Luke Radice: Hi. Good evening, team. This is Luke Radice on for Terry. Thank you for taking my question.

Speaker #6: Are these new products something customers pay extra for or does it upgrade for current subscribers? Kind of based on that response that's the way that we should be thinking about it for future rebuild products with Celeste.

John Hall: Thanks, Luke. Yes. We are very excited about these core product releases based on the Celeste agentic AI technology. We announced them for general availability in the middle of August. So we only had a few weeks of this quarter for those to be generally available. But the engagement on those has been tremendous because we have such a footprint in these firms, in these highly regulated workflows at the enterprise level around compliance, which is the process that they have to go through. It includes the process they have to go through for onboarding new clients and doing all the due diligence and all the compliance checks, and then governing the relationship with those clients and all of their confidential information over the life cycle of their relationship with the firm.

John Hall: Thanks, Luke. Yes. We are very excited about these core product releases based on the Celeste agentic AI technology. We announced them for general availability in the middle of August.

But the engagement on those has been tremendous because we have such a footprint in these firms in these highly regulated workflows at the enterprise level around compliance which is the process that they have to go through.

Speaker #5: It includes the process they have to go through for onboarding new clients and doing all the due diligence and all the compliance checks. And then governing the relationship with those clients and all of their confidential information over the life cycle of their relationship with the firm.

Speaker #5: And then with time which is how do we help keep track of all of the effort that goes into working on these deals and clients over time.

John Hall: With Time, which is how do we help keep track of all of the effort that goes into working on these deals and clients over time so people can use that for cost and economics management and to the extent that the work is being billed on an hourly basis, how can we help them bill for that better? The agentic opportunity with Celeste is to transform those core workflows of the firm into a much more efficient, modern, AI-driven experience, saving labor, increasing quality, creating around-the-clock concierge services for all the professionals. It is an awesome value proposition to the firms, and they are so excited because we are the only people really that are talking to them about the firm side of the business, which is where all the operating margin is and where all the opportunity for performance improvement at scale is for the business.

John Hall: With Time, which is how do we help keep track of all of the effort that goes into working on these deals and clients over time so people can use that for cost and economics management and to the extent that the work is being billed on an hourly basis, how can we help them bill for that better?

Speaker #5: So people can use that for cost and economics management and to the extent that the work is being built on an hourly basis how can we help them build for that better.

Speaker #5: The agentic opportunity with Celeste is to transform those core workflows of the firm into a much more efficient modern AI driven experience saving labor increasing quality creating around the clock concierge services for all the professionals.

Speaker #5: It's a awesome value proposition to the firms and they are so excited because we're the only people really that are talking to them about the firm side of the business which is where all the operating margin is and where all the opportunity for performance improvement at scale is for the business.

Speaker #5: So firms absolutely pay extra as we bring these solutions out because the value proposition is significantly better even than what we were doing in the prior era and we're perfectly positioned because we have command of those processes inside the firm today.

John Hall: Firms absolutely pay extra as we bring these solutions out because the value proposition is significantly better even than what we were doing in the prior era. We are perfectly positioned because we have command of those processes inside the firms today, and we are the natural people to agentify them for these firms in a way that maintains their compliance requirements. Going forward, absolutely, this is the plan. The opportunity to do work replacement, labor replacement on the cost side has huge potential. Looking at the labor force of these firms, 20% to 30% of the OpEx of these firms is going to this kind of function. The return here, if you can actually agentify those jobs, is tremendous.

John Hall: Firms absolutely pay extra as we bring these solutions out because the value proposition is significantly better even than what we were doing in the prior era.

Speaker #5: And we're the natural people to agentify them for these firms in a way that maintains their compliance requirements. So going forward absolutely this is the plan.

Speaker #5: The opportunity to do work replacement labor replacement on the cost side has huge potential looking at the labor force of these firms. It's 20 to 30 percent of the opex of these firms is going to this kind of function.

Speaker #5: So the return here if you can actually agentify those jobs is tremendous. But in addition to a pure cost argument which is compelling in itself there is a around the clock concierge that knows the entire internet and the entire portfolio of the firm's proprietary knowledge.

John Hall: In addition to a pure cost argument, which is compelling in itself, there is an around-the-clock concierge that knows the entire internet and the entire portfolio of the firm's proprietary knowledge and history with each and every client and can personalize that for each professional if they need it at any time of day. The quality of service that we can create is light years ahead of the manual process that humans had to provide before, and the value to the firms associated with that is off the charts. The firms know that they have to do this because the firm across the street is going to do it and become more competitive.

John Hall: In addition to a pure cost argument, which is compelling in itself, there is an around-the-clock concierge that knows the entire internet and the entire portfolio of the firm's proprietary knowledge and history with each and every client and can personalize that for each professional if they need it at any time of day.

Speaker #5: And history with each and every client and can personalize that for each professional if they need it at any time of day. The quality of service that we can create is light years ahead.

Speaker #5: Of the manual process that humans had to provide before. And the value to the firms associated with that is off the charts. And the firms know that they have to do this because the firm across the street is going to do it and become more competitive.

Speaker #5: So the whole Celeste story around firm AI and in particular in these areas that you just named is a transformational opportunity for these firms.

John Hall: The whole Celeste story around Firm AI, and in particular in these areas that you just named, is a transformational opportunity for these firms, not just at the desk, but in the way that the firm functions at a macro scale. That is our strategy, is to go after that core operating model transformation with the agentic generation of technologies in these areas and the other solutions that we bring to the market.

John Hall: The whole Celeste story around Firm AI, and in particular in these areas that you just named, is a transformational opportunity for these firms, not just at the desk, but in the way that the firm functions at a macro scale.

Luke Radice: Awesome. That is great to hear. Just a quick follow-up. Customers above $100K in ARR increased 11 sequentially this quarter, a little bit smaller than in recent quarters. Could you speak to this dynamic? Is this normal Q1 seasonality, or are you seeing longer sales cycles or smaller initial deals with these large firms?

Luke Radice: Awesome. That is great to hear. Just a quick follow-up. Customers above $100K in ARR increased 11 sequentially this quarter, a little bit smaller than in recent quarters. Could you speak to this dynamic? Is this normal Q1 seasonality, or are you seeing longer sales cycles or smaller initial deals with these large firms?

Speaker #6: Awesome. That's great to hear. And then just a quick follow up. Customers above 100k in ARR increased 11 sequentially this quarter. A little bit smaller than in recent quarters.

Speaker #6: Could you speak to this dynamic? Is this normal longer sales cycles or smaller initial deals with these large firms?

Speaker #2: I don't know. Nothing abnormal. I would just say there's some rounding involved with all of this. At the end of the day we're working each of our enterprise clients the cohorts are strong.

David Morton: Nothing abnormal. I would just say, there is some rounding involved with all of this. At the end of the day, we are working each of our enterprise clients. The cohorts are strong. Our NRR is still solid. Our churn is still at de minimis levels. So we are very excited about the opportunity ahead and even more so as we work through the pipeline sitting in front of us. So, no net new change.

David Morton: Nothing abnormal. I would just say, there is some rounding involved with all of this. At the end of the day, we are working each of our enterprise clients. The cohorts are strong. Our NRR is still solid. Our churn is still at de minimis levels. So we are very excited about the opportunity ahead and even more so as we work through the pipeline sitting in front of us.

Speaker #2: Our NRR is still solid. Our churn is still at de minimis level. So we're very excited about the opportunity ahead and even more so as we work through the pipelines that are in front of us.

Speaker #2: So yeah no net new change.

Luke Radice: Okay. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Alex Sklar with Raymond James. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Your next question comes from the line of Alex Sklar with Raymond James. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Alex Sklar: Thank you. John, maybe the first question for you. When you look at that strong 2.5x increase in Celeste pipeline, what are you hearing from these prospects in terms of evaluation period? How has the Celeste pipeline progressed from a new logo perspective in particular? Have you seen it be an unlock in terms of improving win rates for that new name 2K kind of logos that you do not have already today? Thanks.

Alex Sklar: Thank you. John, maybe the first question for you. When you look at that strong 2.5x increase in Celeste pipeline, what are you hearing from these prospects in terms of evaluation period? How has the Celeste pipeline progressed from a new logo perspective in particular? Have you seen it be an unlock in terms of improving win rates for that new name 2K kind of logos that you do not have already today? Thanks.

Speaker #4: Thank you. John maybe first question for you. When you look at that strong two and a half times increase in Celeste pipeline what are you hearing from these prospects in terms of evaluation period and how is the Celeste pipeline progressed from a new logo perspective in particular?

Speaker #4: Have you seen it be an unlock in terms of improving win rates for that new name two K kind of logos that you don't have already today?

Speaker #4: Thanks.

John Hall: Yeah. Thanks, Alex Sklar. We had two quarters about of limited availability, during which time we brought out the Firm AI blueprint. It took several forms, but one of them is a white paper. The circulation of that document among the most senior members of the leadership teams in the firms in this market has been incredible. The number of calls and inbounds that we are getting from people that have titles like managing partner or operating committee member, we have never seen this before. I think we have really tapped into something that was missing. They have all bought into the horizontal AI or the practice AI tools. Their clients have asked them to do that. Everybody is doing it. It is obviously a tremendous success story. But what is there for them as the leadership team to leverage AI to manage the firm better?

John Hall: Yeah. Thanks, Alex Sklar. We had two quarters about of limited availability, during which time we brought out the Firm AI blueprint. It took several forms, but one of them is a white paper. The circulation of that document among the most senior members of the leadership teams in the firms in this market has been incredible.

It is obviously a tremendous success story. But what is there for them as the leadership team to leverage AI to manage the firm better?

Speaker #5: Yeah. Thanks Alex. You know we had two quarters about of limited availability during which time we brought out the firm AI blueprint. It took several forms but one of them is a white paper.

Speaker #5: And the circulation of that document among the most senior members of the leadership teams in the firms this market has been incredible. The number of calls and inbounds that we're getting from people that have titles like managing partner or operating committee member we've never seen this before.

Speaker #5: So I think we've really tapped into something that was missing if all bought into the horizontal AI or the practice AI tools their clients have asked them to do that.

Speaker #5: Everybody's doing it. It's obviously a tremendous success story. But what is there for them as the leadership team to leverage AI to manage the firm better?

John Hall: That is what this whole Firm AI story and value proposition talks about. A lot of this pipeline growth that we have seen, and we just did general availability launch a couple of weeks into this quarter, and then the Compliance and the Time releases were actually halfway through the quarter. This uptick has happened very quickly with very senior members of the firm. I can tell you, even in that amount of time, we have gone to now 200 enterprise firms that are running Celeste today following this launch and have not yet converted to a full subscription.

John Hall: That is what this whole Firm AI story and value proposition talks about. A lot of this pipeline growth that we have seen, and we just did general availability launch a couple of weeks into this quarter, and then the Compliance and the Time releases were actually halfway through the quarter. This uptick has happened very quickly with very senior members of the firm. I can tell you, even in that amount of time, we have gone to now 200 enterprise firms that are running Celeste today following this launch and have not yet converted to a full subscription.

Speaker #5: And that's what this whole firm AI story and value proposition talks about. And a lot of this pipeline growth that we've seen and we just did general availability launch a couple weeks into this quarter and then the compliance and the time releases were actually halfway through the quarter.

Speaker #5: And so this uptick has happened very quickly with very senior members of the firm. I can tell you even in that amount of time we have gone to now 200 enterprise firms that are running Celeste today following this launch and have not yet converted to a full subscription.

Speaker #5: So very significant response. Inside that pipeline and that enterprise class of firm is where 70 percent of our TAM is. And the business services spend all of these business services roles that the agents that we're bringing out can help to identify or support with coworkers is a giant portion of the economic spend of these firms.

John Hall: Very significant response inside that pipeline and that enterprise class of firm is where 70% of our TAM is and the business services spend, all these business services roles that the agents that we are bringing out can help to agentify or support with coworkers is a giant portion of the economic spend of these firms, and it is the senior people who make that decision. It is not something that the individual desk people decide. This is something that is made at the top of the firm about the economic opportunity to agentify the business. That is what we are chasing. In terms of sales cycle, it is absolutely an enterprise decision. We announced in this quarter, and you would expect us to get out and roll out this agentic platform.

John Hall: Very significant response inside that pipeline and that enterprise class of firm is where 70% of our TAM is and the business services spend, all these business services roles that the agents that we are bringing out can help to agentify or support with coworkers is a giant portion of the economic spend of these firms, and it is the senior people who make that decision. It is not something that the individual desk people decide. This is something that is made at the top of the firm about the economic opportunity to agentify the business. That is what we are chasing. In terms of sales cycle, it is absolutely an enterprise decision. We announced in this quarter, and you would expect us to get out and roll out this agentic platform.

Speaker #5: It is the senior people who make that decision. It's not something that the individual desk people decide. This is something that's made at the top of the firm about the economic opportunity to identify the business.

Speaker #5: That's what we're chasing. In terms of sales cycle it is absolutely an enterprise decision. And so we announced in this quarter and you would expect us to get out and roll out this agentic platform.

John Hall: We have a firm-deployed engineer group now that is working on the highest value agentification opportunities across the business processes inside these firms, from business development, fundraising, fund deployment, Compliance, and onboarding through time reporting. In each firm where this is happening, we have firm-deployed engineers that are working with the leadership of the firm, and there is a little bit of a cycle there because these are highly regulated processes, and you cannot just throw agents in there and have them figure it out for themselves. You have to be able to roll this out in a way that the firm can understand and defend. Our whole Compliance capability is supporting us and being the people who can actually achieve the agentification opportunity inside these business services functions. We are really excited about what is happening.

John Hall: We have a firm-deployed engineer group now that is working on the highest value agentification opportunities across the business processes inside these firms, from business development, fundraising, fund deployment, Compliance, and onboarding through time reporting. In each firm where this is happening, we have firm-deployed engineers that are working with the leadership of the firm, and there is a little bit of a cycle there because these are highly regulated processes, and you cannot just throw agents in there and have them figure it out for themselves. You have to be able to roll this out in a way that the firm can understand and defend. Our whole Compliance capability is supporting us and being the people who can actually achieve the agentification opportunity inside these business services functions. We are really excited about what is happening.

Speaker #5: We have a firm deployed engineer group now that is working on the highest value agentification opportunities across the business processes inside these firms from business development fundraising fund deployment compliance and onboarding through time recording in each firm where this is happening.

Speaker #5: We have firm deployed engineers that are working with the leadership of the firm and there is a little bit of a cycle there because these are highly regulated processes and you can't just throw agents in there and have them figure it out for themselves.

Speaker #5: You have to be able to roll this out in a way that the firm can understand and defend. So our whole compliance capability is supporting us and being the people who can actually achieve the agentification opportunity inside these business services functions.

Speaker #5: So we're really excited about what's happening. Obviously it was our launch quarter. So we had to get all those processes started and a big chunk of them have come up in that amount of time and we have an opportunity to convert them.

John Hall: Obviously, it was our launch quarter, so we had to get all those processes started, and a big chunk of them have come up in that amount of time, and we have an opportunity to convert them.

John Hall: Obviously, it was our launch quarter, so we had to get all those processes started, and a big chunk of them have come up in that amount of time, and we have an opportunity to convert them.

Alex Sklar: Okay, great color there. John, another one for you, just about context and the context engine. You have continued to add a lot of data and technology partners in the ecosystem. Where do you feel like you stand today in terms of context advantage feeding to Celeste? How do you think about other areas of context that you would like to add into the platform, either via some of the newer integrations on the practice of law side or some of your practice management side, or just as a potential area of M&A?

Alex Sklar: Okay, great color there. John, another one for you, just about context and the context engine. You have continued to add a lot of data and technology partners in the ecosystem. Where do you feel like you stand today in terms of context advantage feeding to Celeste? How do you think about other areas of context that you would like to add into the platform, either via some of the newer integrations on the practice of law side or some of your practice management side, or just as a potential area of M&A?

Speaker #4: Okay. Great color there. And maybe John another one for you. Just about context and the context engine. So you continue to add a lot of data and then technology partners in the ecosystem.

Speaker #4: Where do you feel like you stand today in terms of context advantage feeding to Celeste and then how do you think about other areas of context that you'd like to add into the platform either via some of the newer integrations on the practice of law side or some of your practice management side or just as a potential area of M&A?

John Hall: Absolutely. We think that we have a fundamental differentiation because of our history owning the core business data of these firms about their fundraisings, their fund deployments and deals, the life cycle of those deals, and their dispositions of them. The same analogous experience with clients, the client relationship, the engagement history with each client. That is all proprietary business information that the firm holds, and that experience is what the firms use to differentiate themselves in their pitches and in their value propositions to their investors and their clients.

John Hall: Absolutely. We think that we have a fundamental differentiation because of our history owning the core business data of these firms about their fundraisings, their fund deployments and deals, the life cycle of those deals, and their dispositions of them. The same analogous experience with clients, the client relationship, the engagement history with each client. That is all proprietary business information that the firm holds, and that experience is what the firms use to differentiate themselves in their pitches and in their value propositions to their investors and their clients.

Speaker #5: Absolutely. So we think that we have a fundamental differentiation because of our history owning the core business data of these firms about their fundraisings their fund deployments and deals the life cycle of those deals and their dispositions of them the same analogous experience with clients the client relationship the engagement history with each client.

Speaker #5: That's all proprietary business information that the firm holds and that experience is what the firms use to differentiate themselves in their pitches and in their value propositions to their investors and their clients.

Speaker #5: So in addition to the practice specific knowledge where you say what is the best precedent for this particular document as a business you want to say I can show you my experience across my history as to why I am the best firm to win your business and your trust.

John Hall: In addition to the practice-specific knowledge where you say, "What is the best precedent for this particular document?" As a business, you want to say, "I can show you my experience across my history as to why I am the best firm to win your business and your trust." That is what we traditionally have excelled at and had unique access to. The context that we have is the business level, firm level insight of what makes the firm unique historically, what makes the firm competitive historically, and how do you, in this agentic AI era, leverage that across the entire history of the firm's experience in each and every engagement or each and every pitch or each and every professional working with their client?

John Hall: In addition to the practice-specific knowledge where you say, "What is the best precedent for this particular document?" As a business, you want to say, "I can show you my experience across my history as to why I am the best firm to win your business and your trust." That is what we traditionally have excelled at and had unique access to. The context that we have is the business level, firm level insight of what makes the firm unique historically, what makes the firm competitive historically, and how do you, in this agentic AI era, leverage that across the entire history of the firm's experience in each and every engagement or each and every pitch or each and every professional working with their client?

Speaker #5: And that's what we traditionally have excelled at and had unique access to. So the context that we have is the business level firm level insight of what makes the firm unique historically what makes the firm competitive historically and how do you in this agentic AI era leverage that across the entire history of the firm's experience in each and every engagement or each and every pitch or each and every professional working with their client.

John Hall: How do you help them leverage that into a much better, much more successful, much more compelling client win and ultimately client delivery experience? The context that we have is unique. It is governed and compliant because the flip side of that whole thing is you're not allowed to tell everybody everything. That's the point. You have the secrets of all of these firms, and the real art in working in this highly regulated industry is how do you get the most leverage on all that expertise without screwing anything up and spilling the beans on something that you're not supposed to. In particular, if you propose to bring agents in here and have them start to operate as coworkers or even autonomously, every single one of those agents has to understand exactly what those rules are now.

Speaker #5: How do you help them leverage that into a much better much more successful much more compelling client win and ultimately client delivery experience? And so the context that we have is unique it is governed and compliant because the flip side of that whole thing is you're not allowed to tell everybody everything.

Speaker #5: That's the point. You have the secrets of all of these firms and the real art in working in this highly regulated industry is how do you get the most leverage on all that expertise without screwing anything up and spilling the beans on something that you're not supposed to and in particular if you propose to bring agents in here and have them start to operate as coworkers or even autonomously every single one of those agents has to understand exactly what those rules are now.

John Hall: It is a serious thing to propose to do this. Huge opportunity, but you need a partner that has that governance and compliance expertise to really differentiate. So what you're seeing us do is connect to all the partners in the ecosystem, just as you say. So the horizontal AI players that I mentioned earlier, the practice AI players across the markets, in addition to the other enterprise software systems of records, providers that have interesting data the firms want to leverage, and third-party data and the internet. So all of those sources need to come together and then be governed consistently with the firm's obligations in the way that the agents manipulate and work with that data to drive performance for the firm.

Speaker #5: So all of those sources need to come together and then be governed consistently with the firm's obligations. In the way that the agents manipulate and work with that data to drive performance for the firm.

Speaker #5: And so I think context and the governance of that context give us a really unique position to be the people that drive agentic transformation in these firms successfully.

John Hall: I think context and the governance of that context give us a really unique position to be the people that drive agentic transformation in these firms successfully. The way that you do that is by talking to the most senior folks in the organization. They don't flip the switch overnight, but when they do, they transform the whole firm. That's what we're doing with Celeste.

John Hall: I think context and the governance of that context give us a really unique position to be the people that drive agentic transformation in these firms successfully.

Speaker #5: And the way that you do that is by talking to the most senior folks in the organization. And they don't flip the switch overnight but when they do they transform the whole firm.

Speaker #5: And that's what we're doing with Celeste.

Alex Sklar: All right. Great. Thank you, John.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Parker Lane with Stifel. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Parker Lane with Stifel. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Your next question comes from the line of Parker Lane with Stiefel. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Jack McShane: Yeah. Hey, team, this is Jack McShane on for Parker. Thanks for taking the questions today. David, you mentioned that demand for Celeste is running ahead of supply of headcount and the ability to serve deployments. Is there any anticipated headwind due to this dynamic, and how long would you expect until you can normalize the ability to serve Celeste deployments?

Jack McShane: Yeah. Hey, team, this is Jack McShane on for Parker. Thanks for taking the questions today. David, you mentioned that demand for Celeste is running ahead of supply of headcount and the ability to serve deployments. Is there any anticipated headwind due to this dynamic, and how long would you expect until you can normalize the ability to serve Celeste deployments?

Speaker #6: Yeah. Hey Tim. This is Jack McShannon for Parker. Thanks for taking the questions today. David you mentioned that demand for Celeste is running ahead of supply of headcount and the ability to serve deployments.

Speaker #6: Is there any anticipated headwind due to this dynamic and how long would you expect until you can normalize the ability to serve Celeste deployments?

David Morton: It is tricky. Meaning that, as John had articulated, not only in the prepared remarks, but even giving qualification to some of that pipe that we are seeing, the 2.5 times just off sequential quarter, and then working with over 200 enterprise clients right now, and then on top of that. As we continue to work through with resources and stand this up in their own governed framework, where we excel at, clearly we are seeing the execution come online, through not only this quarter, but through the back half of the year. As we continue to garner more and more pipe, more and more opportunities, obviously we are swiftly working through this, but we continue to be constrained in that matter.

David Morton: It is tricky. Meaning that, as John had articulated, not only in the prepared remarks, but even giving qualification to some of that pipe that we are seeing, the 2.5 times just off sequential quarter, and then working with over 200 enterprise clients right now, and then on top of that.

As we continue to garner more and more pipe, more and more opportunities, obviously we are swiftly working through this, but we continue to be constrained in that matter.

Speaker #2: It's tricky. Meaning that as John had articulated not only in the prepared remarks but even given qualification to some of that pipe that we're seeing the two and a half times just off sequential quarter and then working with over 200 enterprise clients right now and then on top of that right.

Speaker #2: And so as we continue to work through with resources and stand this up on their own governed framework where we excel at clearly we're seeing the execution come online through not only this quarter but through the back half of the year.

Speaker #2: And so as we continue to garner more and more pipe more and more opportunities obviously we're swiftly working through this. But we continue to be constrained in that matter.

Jack McShane: Got it. Makes sense. John, you specifically called out operating margins in relation to AI adoption in your prepared remarks. How quickly are firms that are leveraging Celeste able to actually capture this margin expansion? Are you seeing firms currently balance headcount because of Celeste adoption, or do you have any other early ROI metrics that you can share with us? Thank you.

Jack McShane: Got it. Makes sense. John, you specifically called out operating margins in relation to AI adoption in your prepared remarks. How quickly are firms that are leveraging Celeste able to actually capture this margin expansion? Are you seeing firms currently balance headcount because of Celeste adoption, or do you have any other early ROI metrics that you can share with us? Thank you.

Speaker #6: Got it. Makes sense. And John you specifically called out operating margins in relation to AI adoption in your prepared remarks. How quickly are firms that are leveraging Celeste able to actually capture this margin expansion?

Speaker #6: Are you seeing firms currently balance headcount because of Celeste adoption or do you have any other early ROI metrics that you can share with us?

Speaker #6: Thank you.

Speaker #5: Yeah. Thank you Jack. It's a really interesting combination of factors because there is a operational transformation opportunity how much of the labor forces work particularly in the business services functions which is 20 30% of the firm spend overall supporting all the professionals with all of the business development and finance and IT and compliance operational support.

John Hall: Thank you, Jack. It is a really interesting combination of factors because there is an operational transformation opportunity. How much of the labor force's work, particularly in the business services functions, which is 20% to 30% of the firm's spend overall, supporting all the professionals with all of the business development and finance and IT and compliance operational support. How much of that can we agentify, and what is the labor cost opportunity to make some of those jobs have better coworker support and maybe in some cases even agentify some of those roles entirely. If you just do the math on that ROI, the transformation opportunity for the firm is profound. So we are getting a lot of attention from the senior-most people with that part of the story.

John Hall: Thank you, Jack. It is a really interesting combination of factors because there is an operational transformation opportunity.

If you just do the math on that ROI, the transformation opportunity for the firm is profound. So we are getting a lot of attention from the senior-most people with that part of the story.

Speaker #5: How much of that can we identify and what is the labor cost opportunity to make some of those jobs have better coworker support and maybe in some cases even identify some of those roles entirely.

Speaker #5: If you just do the math on that ROI the transformation opportunity for the firm is profound. And so we're getting a lot of attention from the senior most people with that part of the story.

Speaker #5: But it doesn't actually stop there because there's a very interesting aspect to the Celeste architecture that we've talked about on previous calls which is not every part of the firm's business problem is well suited to a probabilistic technology approach.

John Hall: It does not actually stop there because there is a very interesting aspect to the Celeste architecture that we have talked about on previous calls, which is not every part of the firm's business problem is well suited to a probabilistic technology approach. So this is a little counterintuitive with all the AI buzz, but it is not a probabilistic question. How many clients do you have, or which history do you have with this client, or a whole set of facts that you need to pull out of the firm's information so that you can start to apply judgment to other aspects of the firm. Part of the elegance of the Celeste architecture is it knows when to apply deterministic approaches and when to apply probabilistic approaches to solve the business process problem.

Speaker #5: And part of the elegance of the Celeste architecture is it knows when to apply deterministic approaches and when to apply probabilistic approaches to solve the business process problem.

Speaker #5: And unlike a lot of the other players who are throwing every single possible question against the model and burning tokens on it Celeste is extremely token efficient because it makes this distinction and it uses the models in the areas where you need a probabilistic answer and it uses other techniques where you need a deterministic answer particularly in a highly regulated environment where you have to prove how you did it each and every time.

John Hall: Unlike a lot of the other players who are throwing every single possible question against the model and burning tokens on it, Celeste is extremely token efficient because it makes this distinction, and it uses the models in the areas where you need a probabilistic answer, and it uses other techniques where you need a deterministic answer, particularly in a highly regulated environment where you have to prove how you did it each and every time. That architecture design, which I think people may not really appreciate this, but this was co-developed with the CIOs and the AI leaders of these highly regulated firms from the beginning. This is how we did it in our advisory sessions as Celeste was coming together.

This is how we did it in our advisory sessions as Celeste was coming together.

Speaker #5: And that architecture design which I think people may not really appreciate this but this was co-developed with the CIOs and the AI leaders of these highly regulated firms from the beginning.

Speaker #5: This is how we did it in our advisory sessions that Celeste was coming together turns out to be a significantly more token efficient architecture and a much more high quality response rate because it's not guessing that the parts of the problem that are not supposed to be guessed at.

John Hall: Turns out to be a significantly more token-efficient architecture and a much more high-quality response rate because it is not guessing at the parts of the problem that are not supposed to be guessed at. So there is a very interesting IT economic case, in addition to the personnel agentification transformation, just in the token spend, which is getting a lot of attention from the technical side of the people who are suddenly experiencing these new AI budget burns. I think those two things together with the compliance angle just make this a home run. So I am very excited about the response on exactly this point. What is the economic argument. Then on top of that, you have all of the service to clients and the service to the professionals argument for why this is the right architecture to help them with.

Speaker #5: And I think those two things together with the compliance angle just make this a home run. So I'm very excited about the response on exactly this point.

Speaker #5: What does the economic argument and then on top of that you have all of the service to clients and the service to the professionals argument for why this is the right architecture to help them with.

Operator: All right. Your next question comes from the line of Saket Kalia with Barclays. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Operator: All right. Your next question comes from the line of Saket Kalia with Barclays. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: All right. Your next question comes from the line of second Kalya. With Barclays. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Saket Kalia: Okay, great. Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my questions here. David, maybe I will start with you. I would love to dig into net new ARR a little bit. You mentioned something about just seasonally weaker renewals this quarter.

Saket Kalia: Okay, great. Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my questions here. David, maybe I will start with you. I would love to dig into net new ARR a little bit. You mentioned something about just seasonally weaker renewals this quarter.

Speaker #4: Okay. Great. Hey guys. Thanks for taking my questions here. Dave maybe I'll start with you. I'd love to dig into net new ARR a little bit.

Speaker #4: You mentioned something about sort of just seasonally weaker renewals this quarter. You look at net new ARR down about 11% year over year. Can you just talk about some of those dynamics in the quarter and then similarly I know that we don't guide to net new ARR through the year but how do you think about the shape just as we think about year over year compares as well as what seems like a very fast growing Celeste pipeline?

Saket Kalia: You look at net new ARR down about 11% year over year. Can you just talk about some of those dynamics in the quarter? Then similarly, I know that we do not guide to net new ARR through the year, but how do you think about the shape, just as we think about year over year compares, as well as what seems like a very fast-growing Celeste pipeline?

Saket Kalia: You look at net new ARR down about 11% year over year. Can you just talk about some of those dynamics in the quarter? Then similarly, I know that we do not guide to net new ARR through the year, but how do you think about the shape, just as we think about year over year compares, as well as what seems like a very fast-growing Celeste pipeline?

David Morton: Yeah, sure. I do not think I necessarily commented anything specifically on seasonally renewals. The commentary would have been on on-prem. Some of that duration is starting to shorten as last quarter. When you get those shortened, obviously the on-prem to cloud, that is playing a part of it. When you think about a big renewal season, that is our FQ2, our December quarter. Those shape and form of the opportunity from your book of business will always exist, both for the June and specifically for the December quarter. As we think about the total ARR, clearly we spend a lot of time and focus working our new AI Celeste agentification across our whole portfolio, and that is where not only our clients but our respective sales team are leading with.

David Morton: Yeah, sure. I do not think I necessarily commented anything specifically on seasonally renewals. The commentary would have been on on-prem. Some of that duration is starting to shorten as last quarter. When you get those shortened, obviously the on-prem to cloud, that is playing a part of it. When you think about a big renewal season, that is our FQ2, our December quarter.

As we think about the total ARR, clearly we spend a lot of time and focus working our new AI Celeste agentification across our whole portfolio, and that is where not only our clients but our respective sales team are leading with.

Speaker #2: Yeah. Sure. I don't think I necessarily commented anything specifically on seasonally renewals. The commentary would have been on on prem some of that duration is starting to shorten as last quarter.

Speaker #2: And so when you get those shortened obviously the on prem to cloud that's playing a part of it. When you think about a big renewal season that is our FQ2 our December quarter.

Speaker #2: And so those shape and form of the opportunity from your book of business will always exist both for the June and specifically for the December quarter.

Speaker #2: As we think about the total ARR clearly we spend a lot of time and focus working our new AI Celeste identification across our whole portfolio and that's where not only our clients but our respective sales team are leading with.

Speaker #2: And as we continue to work through and engage with our key clients get through the POC successfully deploy the firm deployed engineers to stand up each of these provisioned use cases within their own environments in a very safe manner and governed manner we're really excited about not only what this quarter but then obviously the first half of calendar year 27 brings us.

David Morton: As we continue to work through and engage with our key clients, get through the POC successfully, deploy the firm-deployed engineers to stand up each of these provisioned use cases within their own environments in a very safe and governed manner. We are really excited about not only what this quarter, but the first H1 of calendar year 2027 brings us. That is a long way of saying we are really confident in the continued execution for our FY27 and beyond for that matter.

David Morton: As we continue to work through and engage with our key clients, get through the POC successfully, deploy the firm-deployed engineers to stand up each of these provisioned use cases within their own environments in a very safe and governed manner. We are really excited about not only what this quarter, but the first H1 of calendar year 2027 brings us. That is a long way of saying we are really confident in the continued execution for our FY27 and beyond for that matter.

Speaker #2: And so anyway that's a long way of saying is we're really confident in the continued execution for our FY 27 and beyond for that matter.

Saket Kalia: Got it. Very helpful. John, for my follow-up, maybe for you. In your prepared remarks, you talked about three ways to monetize Firm AI, right? I think there were new entitlements for existing customers, new customers starting with Celeste from day one, and governance for use with third-party tools like Legora and Harvey. As you look at the deal activity so far and the pipeline, which of those three is the biggest drivers, or how would you rank order them as you look at all this activity so far?

Saket Kalia: Got it. Very helpful. John, for my follow-up, maybe for you. In your prepared remarks, you talked about three ways to monetize Firm AI, right? I think there were new entitlements for existing customers, new customers starting with Celeste from day one, and governance for use with third-party tools like Legora and Harvey. As you look at the deal activity so far and the pipeline, which of those three is the biggest drivers, or how would you rank order them as you look at all this activity so far?

Speaker #4: Got it. Very helpful. John from my follow up maybe for you in your prepared remarks you talked about three ways to sort of monetize firm AI.

Speaker #4: I think there were new entitlements for existing customers. New customers starting with Celeste from day one. And then governance for use with third party tools like Legora and Harvey.

Speaker #4: As you look at sort of the deal activity so far and the pipeline which of those three is sort of the biggest drivers or how would you sort of rank order them as you look at all this activity so far?

John Hall: Thanks, Saket. I think the pipeline that I quoted includes all three of those. We are excited about the ability to go back to all of our existing clients who have technology from us that are running these core workflows and introduce Celeste and the agentic workflow opportunity to them because the whole Firm AI story is different and fresh to the senior people who have not really interacted with the AI tools themselves, and they have not had it as part of their business. So that is a big part of that pipeline growth, and that Firm AI paper has really helped us to build pipeline there.

John Hall: Thanks, Saket. I think the pipeline that I quoted includes all three of those. We are excited about the ability to go back to all of our existing clients who have technology from us that are running these core workflows and introduce Celeste and the agentic workflow opportunity to them because the whole Firm AI story is different and fresh to the senior people who have not really interacted with the AI tools themselves, and they have not had it as part of their business. So that is a big part of that pipeline growth, and that Firm AI paper has really helped us to build pipeline there.

Speaker #5: Thanks Socket. I think the pipeline that I quoted includes all three of those. We are excited about the ability to go back to all of our existing clients who have technology from us that are running these core workflows and introduce Celeste and the agentic workflow opportunity to them because the whole firm AI story is different and fresh to the senior people who haven't really interacted with the AI tools themselves and they haven't had it as part of their business.

Speaker #5: So that's a big part of that pipeline growth and that firm AI paper has really helped us to build pipeline there. As part of that we're getting inbounds from new clients who have known about us but have had alternative systems over the years who are looking at this Celeste identification strategy and saying that's a reason to engage with Intapp.

John Hall: As part of that, we are getting inbounds from new clients who have known about us but have had alternative systems over the years who are looking at this Celeste agentification strategy and saying, "That is a reason to engage with Intapp." I am very happy about these partnerships that we put in place with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Harvey, and Legora because the Walls for AI story, which we have been working on as we have talked with you all about over time, going back to the partnership with Microsoft as well, where we were securing Copilot and still do. It is a really important aspect of them being successful in rolling out these tools more broadly and allowing people to collaborate more broadly. They have to have a governance layer that is at the firm layer because a lot of these firms are not standardizing on one of these tools.

John Hall: As part of that, we are getting inbounds from new clients who have known about us but have had alternative systems over the years who are looking at this Celeste agentification strategy and saying, "That is a reason to engage with Intapp." I am very happy about these partnerships that we put in place with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Harvey, and Legora because the Walls for AI story, which we have been working on as we have talked with you all about over time, going back to the partnership with Microsoft as well, where we were securing Copilot and still do.

Speaker #5: It's a really important aspect of them being successful in rolling out these tools more broadly and allowing people to collaborate more broadly. They have to have a governance layer that is at the firm layer because a lot of these firms are not standardizing on one of these tools.

John Hall: They are using multiple tools, and so they need something that sits above those tools and governs them. As was shared, this was our biggest Walls for AI quarter as well that we have ever had, and we are excited about where that is headed as an addition. I think this Firm AI strategy for highly regulated industries with agentification opportunity for the business of the firm and governance for the regulated nature that interacts with the rest of their technology portfolio, I think it is a winning strategy. The responses that we are getting are very positive, and I am very encouraged by this first quarter or half quarter of launch here.

Speaker #5: So I think this firm AI strategy for a highly regulated industry with identification opportunity for the business of the firm and governance for the regulated nature that interacts with the rest of their technology portfolio I think it's a winning strategy.

Speaker #5: And the responses that we're getting are very positive and I'm very encouraged by this first quarter or half quarter of launch here.

Saket Kalia: Very helpful. Thanks.
