Analyzes contracts against your playbook, identifies deviations from standard terms, flags risk clauses, and generates redlines—turning days of legal review into minutes. All on your infrastructure.
"We signed a SaaS contract with what looked like standard terms. Two years later, we wanted to switch providers. Then we discovered the clause: all data integrations we built were considered 'derivative works' belonging to the vendor. They wanted $2.1 million to let us keep our own integration code. One paragraph in a 67-page contract that nobody caught. Now I have two associates who do nothing but read every single clause. It takes forever, and I still can't sleep at night."

Vendor sends their standard SaaS agreement. 67 pages. Looks routine. But buried in the IP section: derivative works clause that would give them ownership of your integrations.
"Contract analysis complete: CloudScale SaaS Agreement. HIGH RISK ALERT: §6.4 Intellectual Property. Issue identified: 'Any integrations, customizations, or derivative works created by Customer using the Service shall be considered derivative works of Provider's intellectual property.' Risk assessment: This clause would transfer ownership of customer-built integrations to vendor. Estimated exposure: Based on integration development costs, approximately $2.1M in IP value at risk. Deviation from playbook: Our standard requires customer ownership of all custom development. Recommended redline: 'Customer shall retain all right, title, and interest in any integrations, customizations, or works created by Customer, regardless of use of Provider's APIs or services.' Fallback position: Joint ownership with customer perpetual license. Time to detection: 4 minutes 12 seconds."
M&A due diligence. 200 NDAs to review. Normally 2 weeks of associate time. Data room opens Monday. Deal closes Friday. No time for traditional review.
"Batch analysis initiated: 200 NDA documents. Processing complete: 6 hours 42 minutes. Summary report generated. Findings: 187 NDAs: Standard terms, no significant issues. 8 NDAs: Non-standard confidentiality periods (ranging 5-10 years vs. standard 3 years). 3 NDAs: Problematic residuals clauses allowing indefinite retention of confidential information. 2 NDAs: Missing standard carve-outs for independently developed information. Risk categorization: Low risk (proceed): 187. Medium risk (review recommended): 8. High risk (escalate): 5. Detailed report with clause-by-clause analysis for all 13 flagged NDAs attached. Associate review time for flagged items: estimated 4 hours vs. 80 hours for full manual review."
Renewing a software contract. Vendor sends amendment. "Just standard renewal terms." But the agent catches what humans might miss at 11 PM on a Friday.
"Contract amendment analysis: Software Renewal Agreement. ALERT: Significant term change detected. Original agreement §12.1: 'Either party may terminate with 30-day written notice.' Amendment §2(a): 'Agreement shall automatically renew for successive 3-year terms unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal at least 120 days prior to the end of the then-current term.' Risk assessment: This changes termination from at-will to auto-renewal with 4-month notice window. Financial impact: If renewal window missed, locked in for additional 3 years at $113,000/year = $339,000 exposure. Current contract value: $89,000/year (20% below market). Vendor seeking 27% increase + lock-in. Recommendation: Reject auto-renewal. Counter with original 30-day termination or maximum 1-year renewal with 30-day notice. Calendar reminder set for renewal decision deadline."
Legal team of 5. Each reviews contracts differently. Senior counsel negotiates one way, junior associates another. Vendors learn to go around the tough negotiators.
"Playbook enforcement report: Q4 2024. Contracts reviewed: 347. Playbook compliance: Before agent: 64% (based on audit of 50 contracts). After agent: 100% (all contracts checked against playbook). Consistency improvements: Liability caps: Previously ranged 6-24 months fees, now standardized at 12 months. Indemnification: 23 contracts had mutual indemnification gaps, now all include standard carve-outs. IP clauses: 8 contracts had work-for-hire issues, now all use approved language. Auto-renewal: 31 contracts had undisclosed auto-renewals, now all flagged. Training effect: Junior associates now see exactly why senior counsel makes specific redlines. Learning accelerated. Pattern analysis: Top 5 vendors who consistently send aggressive terms identified. Negotiation playbooks updated. Risk reduction: Estimated $847K in avoided exposure from standardized terms."
