Try it

Read each highlighted clause and accept it, reject it, or send it to counsel. A clause the analysis is unsure how to read cannot simply be accepted.

  2. 2The Supplier's total liability under this Agreement shall not exceed the fees paid in the preceding twelve months, including for loss of data.

The answer

Simulated answer. Written for this fictional case, not produced by a live model. Only the figures in it are computed, from what you decided above.

5 of 6 clauses are highlighted; you have accepted 0 and sent 0 to counsel.

The liability cap is the clause that matters most: it is below the minimum in our playbook and it extends to data loss [S1][S2]. The automatic three-year renewal creates an obligation to give notice, which the contracts register would need to track.

Two readings are uncertain: the renewal term depends on a notice mechanism the draft does not fully describe, and the maintenance clause points to a schedule that is not attached. Those cannot simply be accepted; they go to a lawyer. You have accepted 0 into the obligations register.

Relies on: S1 · Supplier agreement, draft v1S2 · Contract playbook, liability and term

Review and approval

The general counsel decides. Approving fixes the issues list that goes back to the supplier as proposed amendments. It does not sign, accept or reject the agreement.

Not ready to approve. 5 highlighted clauses are still undecided. Accept, reject or send each to counsel first.

In the product this is a different person with the right permission. Here you play that role to see the rule.

What it produces

Obligations extracted

  • 0 obligations from accepted clauses, each with party and trigger.
  • Clauses with counsel: 0.
recommendationDraft, not approved

Proposed amendments

  • Raise the liability cap to the playbook minimum and carve data loss out of it.
  • Obtain the Service Schedule before signature.

Limits of this example

  • The reading of a clause is an aid to the lawyer who decides; an uncertain reading is never accepted automatically.
  • Only the document supplied is read; a side letter would not be seen.
  • This is a scripted demonstration on fictional data. No model was called and no real organisation, person or result is shown.
