What it does

For a specified contract, an agent compares every clause to your approved template library, identifies each deviation, and reasons about how to respond. It assembles a negotiation brief in Notion that, per flagged clause, states what the counterparty changed, why it matters, a recommended counter-position, and acceptable fallback language. The deal team walks into the call with a position sheet instead of a blank document.

When to use it

Use it when a deviation alert is not enough and you need actual guidance on how to push back. Best for negotiators handling non-standard deals who want consistent, template-aligned positions without waiting on outside counsel for first-pass strategy.

How it works

  1. 1The run is triggered manually on a chosen contract file.
  2. 2The agent reads the contract from Drive and loads the matching approved templates.
  3. 3It diffs clauses, then for each material deviation researches precedent and acceptable ranges using your playbook and web context.
  4. 4It drafts a counter-position and fallback wording per clause.
  5. 5The assembled negotiation brief is written to Notion and a ready link is posted to the deal channel in Slack.
