Common Paper, Co-founder & CEO Jake Stein | Founding Philly Ep. 27

On this episode, I interview Jake Stein, Co-founder & CEO of Common Paper. Common Paper helps you create and sign contracts faster. 

Their structured contract platform helps you build trusted templates using their standard agreements, then negotiate, sign and manage contracts in a single workflow.

Jake and his team felt that buying and selling technology is still harder than it should be. 

Throughout his career, one of Jake's biggest frustrations was the process of managing contracts of his customers. 

"It was slow, it was expensive, it was unpredictable." 

With Common Paper, a single workflow from drafting to signature: sales agreements, non-disclosure, compliance, and more.

Prior to Common Paper, Jake co-founded 2 successful Philly-based companies RJMetrics (Acquired by Magento) and Stitch (Acquired by Talend).

Common Paper is backed Y Combinator, Uncork Capital and Boldstart.

Listen to Jake share his journey building Common Paper, his experience building multiple successful companies in the Philly startup ecosystem and how he and his team are helping businesses build, negotiate, and sign contracts for the better.
