The basics

What is an AI clause suggestion agent?

It lists clauses that are missing or thin, and for each one proposes approved wording from your library.

Read the full explanation

It explains the reason for each suggestion, so the reviewer can accept it or set it aside.

Where it breaks

Why this step is hard by hand

Missing clauses are harder to spot than bad ones, because nothing on the page draws attention to the gap. Reviewers work from memory and personal habits that vary from person to person.

A reviewer reads what is there and may not notice what is not.

A software licence needs different protections from a consulting agreement.

Standard supplier terms favour the supplier and leave out buyer rights.

Two people may ask for different clauses on the same draft.

Business teams press to sign, and a gap may be accepted rather than raised.

The path

How the agent does it

  1. 01Classify the deal

    The agent identifies the agreement type, value, data handling and term from the draft and the request.

  2. 02Build the expected list

    It forms the list of clauses your policy expects for that type of deal.

  3. 03Compare with the draft

    Each expected clause is checked for presence and strength, and the result is marked present, thin or missing.

  4. 04Propose wording

    For gaps it proposes approved wording from the library and states the policy reason.

  5. 05Present to the reviewer

    Suggestions are shown in order of importance for the reviewer to accept, edit or reject.

The numbers

How to measure it

Set your own baseline first. We do not publish benchmarks without a source you can check.
Metric 1

Suggestions accepted by reviewers

Acceptance rate (%) =
suggestions acceptedsuggestions made× 100

A very low rate means suggestions are noisy. A very high rate may mean reviewers are not applying their own judgement.

  • Review rejected suggestions to refine the rules.
  • Break the rate down by deal type.
Questions

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to what people ask most about clause suggestion.

Book a demo
What is clause suggestion?

It is proposing contract clauses that a draft is missing or weak on, using the deal type and company policy. A reviewer decides which ones to request.

How does the agent know what should be in a contract?

It follows the expectations your legal team defines for each deal type and compares the draft against them.

Will it edit the contract directly?

It proposes wording for the reviewer. People make the edits and agree the final text.

Does it replace legal review?

No. It narrows the gaps for reviewers to consider, and legal decides what is needed.
