Background

Legal teams often spend time on:

  • Manual extraction of key clauses
  • Comparing contracts to standard templates
  • Spotting unfavorable terms
  • Inconsistent risk labels across reviewers

This use case delivers upload → extract → compare → flag.

Key steps

  1. Upload contract: PDF or Word, via secure channel.
  2. Extract clauses: indemnity, liability, termination, IP, warranty.
  3. Compare to template: highlight differences, missing clauses.
  4. Flag risks: unusual terms, one-sided language, regulatory gaps.
  5. Output review report: structured for counsel follow-up.
