Buyer questions

  • Can the system apply your playbook to real contracts instead of producing generic summaries?
  • Does it support Word workflows, CLM handoff, clause libraries, approvals, and reviewer notes?
  • Can legal teams audit what AI suggested, what humans accepted, and what changed?

Evaluation checks

  • Test NDAs, vendor agreements, customer agreements, DPAs, and non-standard clauses.
  • Compare AI risk flags against your legal playbook and past negotiation outcomes.
  • Check confidentiality, data retention, redline quality, export formats, and matter-level reporting.

Decision rules

  • Choose contract review software when legal review throughput and playbook consistency are the core issue.
  • Choose CLM-first software when intake, approvals, lifecycle tracking, and renewal management matter more.
  • Do not automate approvals until reviewers can see sources, clause rationale, and risk level.
