An AI amendment review agent reads the amendment and works out which clauses of the base agreement are added, replaced or deleted.
The vendor sends a change to an existing agreement.
The agent matches it to the agreement being changed.
Added, altered and removed terms are listed.
Effects on price, term and other clauses are noted.
The contract owner accepts, counters or declines the change.
The amended terms replace the old fields in the record.
It applies the change to the current operative version, taking earlier amendments into account, and states the resulting term in plain words.
It flags knock-on effects, such as a changed term that moves the renewal date or a new fee that breaks a price lock.
Amendments are written as instructions, such as 'delete section 4 and replace it', so the reader must rebuild the contract in their head. Stacked amendments make that harder.
The effect is not stated, so reviewers must reconstruct it.
A clause changed twice has a different meaning from the original.
A term extension can alter notice windows and renewal dates.
A mid-term upsell or fix pushes for fast signature.
The repository may still show the original agreement as current.
Find the original agreement and every earlier amendment, in date order.
Extract each added, replaced or deleted clause and what it refers to.
Apply the changes to the current operative text and state the new term in plain language.
Check dates, fees, notice windows, renewal and caps for knock-on changes.
Send a summary of what changes and link the amendment to the contract record.
