Outputs a structured risk report. ## When to Use - Reviewing NDAs, MSAs, SaaS agreements, vendor contracts, SOWs - Pre-signature risk assessment - Comparing contract terms against industry standards - Identifying missing protective clauses - Compliance gap analysis (GDPR, SOC 2, HIPAA references) ## How to Use 1.

Contract Metadata Extract and confirm: - **Parties**: Who is bound? Are entities correctly named? - **Effective date & term**: Start, duration, auto-renewal? - **Governing law & jurisdiction**: Which state/country? - **Contract type**: NDA / MSA / SaaS / SOW / Employment / Vendor / Other ### 2. Financial Terms Review Flag issues with: - **Payment terms**: Net 30/60/90? Late payment penalties? - **Price escalation**: Annual increases capped? CPI-linked? - **Hidden fees**: Setup, overage, early termination, minimum commitments - **Currency & tax**: Who bears tax obligations? ### 3. Risk Clauses (RED FLAGS) Score each 🔴 High / 🟡 Medium / 🟢 Low: | Clause | What to Check | |--------|--------------| | **Limitation of liability** | Is it capped? Mutual? Carve-outs for IP/data? | | **Indemnification** | One-sided or mutual? Uncapped exposure? | | **Termination** | Can either party terminate for convenience? Notice period? | | **Auto-renewal** | Silent renewal? Opt-out window too short? | | **IP ownership** | Who owns work product? License-back provisions? | | **Data handling** | DPA included? Breach notification timeline? Data return/deletion? | | **Non-compete / non-solicit** | Scope, duration, geography reasonable? | | **Force majeure** | Included? Pandemic/cyber covered? | | **Assignment** | Can they assign without consent? Change of control? | | **Warranty disclaimers** | "As-is" without recourse? SLA commitments? | | **Confidentiality** | Mutual? Duration? Carve-outs? Survival period? | | **Dispute resolution** | Arbitration vs litigation? Venue favorable? | ### 4. Missing Clauses Check Flag if absent: - [ ] Data Processing Agreement (if personal data involved) - [ ] SLA with uptime commitments and credits - [ ] Insurance requirements - [ ] Audit rights - [ ] Subcontractor approval rights - [ ] Escrow provisions (for critical software) - [ ] Business continuity / disaster recovery obligations - [ ] Right to terminate for cause (material breach + cure period) ### 5. Plain Language Issues - Ambiguous terms ("reasonable efforts" without definition) - Undefined capitalized terms - Conflicting clauses (e.g., termination vs auto-renewal) - Missing exhibits or schedules referenced but not attached ## Output Format ```markdown # Contract Review Report ## Summary - **Contract**: [type] between [Party A] and [Party B] - **Overall Risk Level**: 🔴/🟡/🟢 - **Top 3 Concerns**: [bullet list] - **Recommendation**: Sign / Negotiate / Walk Away ## Detailed Findings ### 🔴 High Risk [numbered list with clause reference, issue, recommendation] ### 🟡 Medium Risk [numbered list with clause reference, issue, recommendation] ### 🟢 Low Risk / Acceptable [numbered list noting well-drafted provisions] ## Missing Clauses [checklist of what should be added] ## Suggested Redlines [specific language changes recommended, with before/after] ## Next Steps 1.
