| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation | Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation: The financial information presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, as well as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full fiscal 2027 or any future period.

|
| Variable Interest Entity | Variable Interest Entity: The Company holds an interest in a Japanese company (“nCino K.K.”) that is considered a VIE. nCino K.K. is considered a VIE as it has insufficient equity capital to finance its activities without additional financial support. The Company is the primary beneficiary of nCino K.K. as it has the power over the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of nCino K.K. and has the obligation to absorb expected losses and the right to receive expected benefits that could be significant to nCino K.K., in accordance with accounting guidance. As a result, the Company consolidated nCino K.K. and all significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated. The Company will continue to assess whether it has a controlling financial interest and whether it is the primary beneficiary at each reporting period. Other than the Company’s equity investments, the Company has not provided financial or other support to nCino K.K. which it was not contractually obligated to provide. The assets of the VIE can only be used to settle the obligations of the VIE and the creditors of the VIE do not have recourse to the Company. The assets and liabilities of the VIE were not significant to the Company’s consolidated financial statements except for cash which is reflected on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 2 “Variable Interest Entity and Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest” for additional information regarding the Company’s variable interest.
|
| Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest | Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest: Redeemable non-controlling interest relates to minority investors of nCino K.K. An agreement with the minority investors of nCino K.K. contains redemption features whereby the interest held by the minority investors are redeemable either at the option of the (i) minority investors, or (ii) the Company, both beginning on the eighth anniversary of the initial capital contribution. If the interest of the minority investors were to be redeemed under this agreement, the Company would be required to redeem the interest based on a prescribed formula derived from the relative revenues of nCino K.K. and the Company. The balance of the redeemable non-controlling interest is reported at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the redeemable non-controlling interest’s share of earnings or losses and other comprehensive income or loss, or its estimated redemption value. The resulting changes in the estimated redemption amount (increases or decreases) are recorded with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital. These interests are presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets outside of equity under the caption “Redeemable non-controlling interest.”
|
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates: The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made by the Company’s management are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition including determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, variable consideration, and stand-alone selling price; the average period of benefit associated with costs capitalized to obtain revenue contracts; fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for business combinations; fair value of contingent consideration; the useful lives of intangible assets; income taxes and the related valuation allowance on deferred tax assets; redemption value of redeemable non-controlling interest; and stock-based compensation. The Company assesses these estimates on a regular basis using historical experience and other factors. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
|
| Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers | Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers: The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and accounts receivable. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents exceeded federally insured limits at January 31, 2026 and April 30, 2026. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash with high-credit-quality financial institutions.
|
| Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash: Restricted cash consists of deposits held as collateral for the Company’s bank guarantees issued in place of security deposits for certain property leases at January 31, 2026 and April 30, 2026. Restricted cash is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and long-term prepaid expenses and other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at January 31, 2026 and April 30, 2026.
|
| Allowances | Allowances: The Company records allowances for doubtful accounts based upon the credit worthiness of customers, historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable, current market and economic conditions, and supportable forecasts about the future. Relevant risk characteristics include customer size and historical loss patterns. This estimate is analyzed quarterly and adjusted as necessary. The Company records the allowance against bad debt expense through the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, included in general and administrative expenses, up to the amount of revenues recognized to date. Any incremental allowance is recorded as an offset to deferred revenue on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Receivables are written off and charged against the recorded allowance when the Company has exhausted collection efforts without success.
|
| Investments | Investments: The Company’s investments are non-marketable equity investments without readily determinable fair value and for which the Company does not have control or significant influence. The investments are measured at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price or impairment as permitted by the measurement alternative. The Company assesses at each reporting period if the investments continue to qualify for the measurement alternative. Gains or losses resulting from observable price changes are recognized currently in Other income (expense), net on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company assesses the investments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investments may not be recoverable.
|
| Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency: The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is generally the local currency. Adjustments resulting from translating foreign functional currency financial statements into United States (“U.S.”) dollars are recorded as a separate component on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income recorded in the foreign currency translation line item. All assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate during the period. Equity transactions are translated using historical exchange rates. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses due to transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in Other income (expense), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and were $14.4 million and $(0.3) million for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and 2026, respectively, primarily related to remeasurement of various intercompany loans.

| Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements: In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The guidance includes amendments that provide a practical expedient for measuring credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets under ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods, on a prospective basis. The Company adopted the new guidance effective February 1, 2026 on a prospective basis and elected the practical expedient to estimate expected credit losses based on actual uncollected amounts. There was no material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the adoption date. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted: In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The guidance includes amendments to require public companies to provide additional disclosure about certain costs and expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which clarifies and modernizes certain aspects of the accounting for, and disclosure of, internal-use software costs. The ASU removes all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods and clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which intends to improve the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarify when it applies. The amendments also provide additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods. ASU 2025-11 does not intend to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 with the option to apply the guidance prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
