Moonlight X-1

No-code software to help contract negotiators make smarter offers

JAN '26 / IN BETA TESTING

Imagine an enterprise software deal. Sales, legal, IT, procurement, and account executives are involved. They navigate hundreds of terms, each a potential killer. Predictably, a task so complex and so fragile often goes wrong. Despite costing thousands of hours and millions of dollars, a reported 83% of software deals fail. We're here to help. Above the surface, we centralize an organization's data and priorities, creating a single source of truth. Under the hood, we custom-built one of the most powerful real-time offer generation architectures in existence. And to reap its fruit, negotiators need only ask questions in plain english.

The Status Quo

Without a central "data brain," there is only one way to negotiate—by breaking down complex deals into bite-size chunks. Doing so leads to bad outcomes for a few reasons:


  1. It's slow, as the number of compromises balloons to the number of issues

  2. It's fragile, as getting stuck on any single issue can kill the whole deal

  3. It produces weak agreements, as it blunts teams' ability to take advantage of mismatches in buyer/seller priorities

Clearly, the world of complex negotiation needs an update.

A New Approach

We’re betting big on a different approach. Here’s how it works:


  1. A potential client makes it to the bottom of the funnel

  2. Automatic integrations (e.g., slack, salesforce) and negotiator-software conversation build the data landscape

  3. Moonlight builds a set of exploratory first offers

  4. The user finalizes the set by asking questions like, ‘if we bump the SLA to 99.995%, can we shift a few reps & warranties to their side?’

With each round of negotiation, Moonlight maps more of the agreement space. Our goal: that sellers not only sign more deals, and faster, but they use cutting edge technology to win on the factors they care most about.
