When a 40-page contract lands on your desk, /review-contract checks every clause against your playbook — so you focus on what actually needs negotiation. — Claude Skill
YouToday
Manual contract review takes 3.2 hours per contract with a 19-day average turnaround. You read every clause, cross-reference your playbook, and flag issues in a spreadsheet. Half the clauses are standard — but you still read them all because missing one non-standard term could cost millions.
“90% of legal staff feel they slow other functions down.”

Clause Analysis
GREEN: Governing Law — Delaware, matches playbook YELLOW: Liability Cap — $500K, playbook minimum is $1M — suggest: "aggregate liability shall not exceed $1,000,000" RED: IP Assignment — Clause 8.3 assigns all IP to vendor, playbook requires mutual IP retention — reject or escalate
Summary
32 GREEN, 7 YELLOW, 3 RED — estimated negotiation: focus on 10 clauses instead of 42 pages
Suggested Redlines
Liability Cap (Clause 5.2): Replace "$500,000" with "$1,000,000" IP Assignment (Clause 8.3): Replace full assignment with "Each party retains ownership of its pre-existing IP" Indemnification (Clause 9.1): Add mutual indemnification language per playbook
