Contract Analysis
Quickly identify sensitive clauses, discrepancies, and risk areas in your contracts and legal documents.
An amendment to review before Friday’s committee
The starting point is rarely an abstract pile of contracts: it is one specific document, with a signing deadline and an identified financial stake, that someone has to sign off before a meeting already on the calendar. The lawyer or buyer reading it is not trying to understand everything, they are trying to spot what departs from the standard contract already negotiated with that type of supplier.
The deviation that does not jump out
A liability cap rephrased inside an annex, a notice period shifted by a few days, a cross-reference to an article deleted elsewhere in the document: these are the details a quick read misses, whether done by a person or a system. A tool that marks a contract as compliant without having checked a cross-reference gives false reassurance, worse than no analysis at all, because nobody double-checks a file that has been declared risk-free.
No reference clauses, nothing to compare against
The project assumes documented fallback positions already exist: which clauses are acceptable, which are negotiable, where the line sits for each contract type. If that reference only lives in the heads of two or three senior lawyers, the first step is writing it down, not automating a comparison that has nothing to compare against.
Surface the exception, over the list
The system we build flags deviations from the reference set with their exact location in the text, ranked by what they commit financially or legally. Contracts that match the template pass through untouched; those carrying a material deviation, or a clause absent from the reference set, go to the lawyer, who remains the sole decision-maker on what happens next.
