Contracts read for risk before you sign
The legal agent reads a contract, lists the clauses that worry it, rates the risk and recommends what to do next. High-risk contracts always go to a person.
Where it goes wrong today.
Contracts wait in an inbox until someone with legal training has time to read them. Renewal dates sit inside the PDF, and the auto-renewal clause is found after it has renewed.
Routine contracts queue behind the difficult ones
Two reviewers flag different things in the same contract
Renewal and notice dates are buried in the document
Business teams cannot tell which clauses matter
The legal agent returns a risk level, the clauses it is concerned about with a severity for each, and one of four recommendations: approve, approve with conditions, reject, or send to legal. It only cites clauses it can point to in the text. It will not approve a contract with a critical flag, and liability above $50,000, IP transfer and termination clauses always go to a person.
Receive
The contract comes in by email or through the API. Words like contract, agreement, NDA or MSA in the subject send it to the contract agent.
Flag
Each concern is listed with the clause, the reason and a severity: uncapped indemnities, a missing liability limit, auto-renewal without notice, one-sided change rights.
Redline
The contract reviewer suggests alternative wording for the five most serious issues, for a lawyer to edit.
Decide
Under 90% confidence, or with any critical finding, the review goes to a person in the Approval Inbox.
Renew
For contracts already signed, the contract renewer raises the renewal 90 days before expiry and flags auto-renewal clauses.
