Automated Contract Review

Automated Contract Review refers to software that analyzes contracts and related legal documents to identify key clauses, deviations from standard language, and potential risks. These systems parse agreements, extract structured data (like parties, dates, payment terms, and obligations), and compare them against playbooks, templates, or policy libraries to highlight what’s missing, non-standard, or high-risk for legal teams. This application matters because manual contract review is slow, expensive, and prone to inconsistency, especially at scale across NDAs, MSAs, DPAs, and complex commercial agreements. By using AI to triage clauses, surface red flags, and standardize reviews, legal departments and law firms can shorten deal cycles, reduce outside counsel spend, and improve risk control and compliance across large contract portfolios.
