Artificial intelligence has moved rapidly from experimentation to production deployment. What once lived in research environments or internal prototypes is now embedded in customer-facing applications, decision-making systems, and core business workflows. For software developers, this transition introduces a new category of risk that extends beyond traditional software concerns. AI and emerging technology risk encompasses more

Financial services organizations rely heavily on software to support core operations, customer engagement, and regulatory compliance. From online banking platforms to payment processing systems and risk management tools, third-party technology has become deeply embedded in day-to-day financial activity. As reliance on external software providers grows, so does exposure to third-party technology risk. Financial institutions must

In B2B software environments, trust is built over time through reliability, transparency, and continuity.

As businesses become increasingly dependent on software, SaaS platforms, and proprietary technology, the risks associated with vendor failure, insolvency, or product discontinuation have grown. To manage these risks, companies worldwide rely on software escrow and SaaS escrow agreements administered by independent escrow agents. In global technology transactions, many parties, regardless of headquarters, choose a U.S. based technology

In the early stages of artificial intelligence development, startups face heightened technical and contractual scrutiny from enterprise customers. With accelerated innovation cycles and deep integration dependencies, software developers must balance creativity with risk mitigation. A critical, yet often overlooked, element of a robust enterprise readiness strategy is software escrow. By establishing a software escrow arrangement

Enterprise organizations depend on third-party software to operate, scale, and innovate. Core platforms support revenue generation, customer engagement, compliance, and operational efficiency.
