| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant items subject to such estimates include those related to revenue recognition, deferred commissions, allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, impairment of goodwill, intangibles and long-lived assets, the useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, the fair value of the Company’s interest rate derivatives and income taxes. In accordance with GAAP, management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Management regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions using historical experience and other factors; however, actual results could differ from those estimates. Upland is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of May 1, 2026, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

| Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash The Company is required to maintain a letter of credit as collateral during the term of an operating lease for office space.
|
| Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Customers | Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Customers Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and other assets. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are placed with high quality financial institutions, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts, and the Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents. The Company provides credit, in the normal course of business, to a number of its customers and generally does not require collateral. To manage accounts receivable credit risk, the Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and maintains current expected credit losses which considers such factors as historical loss information, geographic location of customers, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.

| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently issued accounting pronouncements - Adopted In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2025-05 Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets related to credit losses for accounts receivable and contract assets. ASU 2025-05 provides a practical expedient permitting an entity to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities that elect the practical expedient and, if applicable, make the accounting policy election are required to apply the amendments prospectively. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2026, on a prospective basis and elected to apply the practical expedient to its estimate of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt-Debt with Conversions and Other Options. ASU 2024-04 is intended to clarify requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments, including convertible debt instruments with cash conversion features or convertible debt instruments that are not currently convertible, should be accounted for as an induced conversion. This ASU is effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2026. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently issued accounting pronouncements - Not Adopted In September 2025, the FASB issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) 2025-07 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract. ASU 2025-07 expands the scope exception for certain contracts not traded on an exchange to include contracts for which settlement is based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. This improvement is expected to result in more contracts and embedded features being excluded from the scope of Topic 815. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software related to accounting for internal-use software costs. ASU 2025-06 improves the operability of the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. ASU 2024-03 (as clarified by ASU 2025-01) is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expense and provide more detailed information to investors about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. This ASU is effective for public companies with annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

| Fair Value Measurements | The Company recognizes financial instruments in accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures for financial assets and liabilities. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include Level 1, defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore, requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, money market funds, accounts receivable, accounts payable, interest rate derivatives, and debt. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value, primarily due to short maturities.

| Revenue Recognition Policy | Deferred Commissions Sales commissions earned by our sales force, and related payroll taxes, are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Deferred commissions and other costs for new customer contracts are capitalized upon contract signing and amortized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of goods and services over the expected life of the customer relationships, which has been determined to be approximately 6 years. Commissions paid on renewal contracts are not commensurate with commissions paid on new customer contracts, as such, deferred commissions related to renewals are capitalized and amortized over the estimated average contractual renewal term of 18 months. Amortization expense is included in sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Deferred commissions are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable consistent with the Company's long-lived assets policy.Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue represents either customer advance payments or billings for which the aforementioned revenue recognition criteria have not yet been met. Deferred revenue is mainly unearned revenue related to subscription services and support services.
