Agreements before circulation
Surface inconsistencies, risky phrasing, and cross references before you circulate a redline or move toward signature. Recensa outputs structured issues for your proof report; you decide what changes.
Last updated 2026-05-14
Who this is for
In-house counsel, contract managers, and deal desks preparing drafts for internal approval or external circulation—before the negotiation line hardens.
Problems
Typical review problems
- Obligations scattered across articles and schedules with inconsistent qualifiers.
- Defined terms that drift (capitalization, singular/plural, “including” lists).
- Cross references that silently break when clauses move.
Where review helps
Before circulation and signing
- Structured triage for ambiguity and internal inconsistency—surfaced in the issue ledger.
- Risky phrasing flagged for your prioritization—not silent rewrites before contract redlining.
Your judgment
What you still decide
- Business tradeoffs, liability caps, and fallback positions.
- What becomes a redline to the counterparty—Recensa outputs inform that decision; they do not make it.
