SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Review-contract turns dense legal documents into an easy-to-understand plain-English summary, highlights key risks with severity ratings, and produces suggested redline edits so owners can negotiate with clarity and confidence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plain-English summary: Explains what the contract does, the owner’s key obligations and timing, and the owner’s key rights and exit/termination paths.
  • Red-flag risk scan: Surfaces common high-impact issues (e.g., auto-renewal, unilateral price changes, broad IP transfers, uncapped liability, exclusivity, non-competes/non-solicits, ambiguous payment/deliverables) and labels each with 🔴 High / 🟡 Medium / 🟢 Low severity.
  • Marked-up redlines: Generates legal markup-style § section instructions for suggested redline changes and offers export guidance for marked-up docx/PDF.
  • DocuSign or local file support: Can review a provided local PDF/docx or retrieve a waiting-for-signature envelope by DocuSign envelope ID.

Quick Start

Tell the owner: Review contract file or DocuSign envelope ID and provide a plain-English summary, a severity-rated red-flag list, and marked-up redline suggestions without signing or modifying the envelope.
