Contract review

Proviso reads each draft against your playbook, marks every departure and suggests the edit, so your team starts from a redline instead of a blank read.

Every departure, with the edit and its reason

Proviso compares each clause with your preferred, fallback and walk-away positions. Where a clause falls outside them, it suggests an edit in your playbook’s words and names the position it came from.

In Word, on the draft you already have

Reviewers work in Word or Google Docs. Accepted edits go in as tracked changes in their own name, so the counterparty receives an ordinary redline.

A record of who decided what

Every accepted edit, fallback and escalation is saved with the agreement. When the contract is signed, the decision record is filed beside it.

Portrait of Marcus Bell

“Procurement moves vendor agreements forward on its own now. Legal sees the five clauses that matter instead of the whole document.”
