AI Contract Data Extraction
Most companies do not know what their contracts commit them to, because the answers are in a folder of PDFs nobody has read since signing. The highest-value output is rarely clever analysis — it is a register of renewal and notice dates that nobody is currently tracking.
Discuss your projectStart with the dates
Automatic renewal with a notice window is the single most expensive thing hiding in a contract portfolio. A supplier agreement that renews for another year unless cancelled ninety days in advance will renew, because nobody had the date in a calendar. Companies discover this when they try to leave and find they have already committed to another term.
So the first deliverable we would build is narrow and immediately useful: for every contract, the start date, the term, the renewal mechanism, the notice period, and the date by which notice must be given. That last field is computed rather than extracted, and it is what goes into a calendar with a reminder in front of it.
Broader clause analysis is worth doing and it is the second phase. A register of dates pays for the project on its own, and it is also the easiest output to verify, which builds the confidence needed before anyone relies on the rest.
What we extract
Parties and signatories
Legal entity names as written, which frequently differ from the trading names your systems use — so matching to your supplier or customer master needs a review step rather than an automatic link.
Term, renewal and notice
Start, end, initial term, renewal mechanism, notice period, and the computed deadline for giving notice. The core of the register.
Financial terms
Value, payment terms, uplift or indexation mechanism, and any cap or minimum commitment.
Liability and indemnity
Liability caps, exclusions and indemnities — the clauses your insurer and your lawyer will ask about, surfaced with the text rather than summarised away.
Assignment and change of control
Whether the contract survives a sale of your business. Routinely urgent during a transaction and almost never known in advance.
Governing law and dispute resolution
Jurisdiction, and whether disputes go to arbitration. Short fields with large consequences.
Obligations and service levels
What each party must do and by when, as a list you can actually review.
Confidentiality and data terms
Duration of confidentiality obligations and any data processing provisions, which matters for your own compliance records.
How we keep it trustworthy
A contract register that is wrong is worse than none, because people act on it.
- Every extracted field links to the clause and page it came from, so any value can be checked in one click. This is non-negotiable in our view.
- Nothing is paraphrased where the wording matters: the clause text is retained alongside any summary.
- Low-confidence fields are flagged for human confirmation rather than silently populated — a missing field is recoverable, a confidently wrong renewal date is not.
- Amendments, side letters and schedules are linked to the parent agreement, since a term is frequently varied by a document filed separately.
- Conflicts are surfaced rather than resolved: where an amendment contradicts the original, both are shown.
- The register records who confirmed each field and when, which is what makes it usable as a working record.
