Navigating SaaS Contracts in the Age of AI: Key Contract Issues, Regulatory Trends, and Negotiation Strategies for In-House Counsel
Event Description
SaaS agreements are evolving rapidly, with embedded AI, shifting business models, and expanding regulatory oversight creating new challenges for in-house counsel. From data ownership and AI-generated outputs to liability for bias, hallucinations, or security breaches, today’s SaaS contracts demand a fresh legal lens. Traditional terms are no longer enough to address the risks—and opportunities—shaping this dynamic space.
Join us on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, at 12pm ET / 9am PT as Brian Heller and Jason Karp, Partners at Outside GC, guide you through the critical issues every in-house lawyer must consider when negotiating SaaS deals in the age of AI. They’ll break down the latest contract pitfalls, explore key regulatory developments, and share practical strategies for structuring agreements that protect your company while enabling innovation.
Key Takeaways:
- Core contract provisions in modern SaaS deals: data rights, AI warranties, IP, indemnification, SLAs, and liability caps
- How evolving regulations (EU AI Act, U.S. Executive Orders, state-level rules) are reshaping SaaS negotiations
- Negotiation strategies to address bias, accuracy, and explainability risks in AI-enabled SaaS solutions
- Practical approaches for balancing vendor relationships with robust risk management
Who Should Attend:
This session is designed for in-house counsel who negotiate or manage SaaS and technology agreements. It will be especially relevant for legal leaders navigating AI-driven risks, data governance, and compliance challenges while seeking pragmatic strategies to support their organizations’ technology adoption.
