- Highlight every change including formatting that affects meaning.
- Categorize changes as benign, ambiguous, or substantive.
What AI cannot do
- Replace a final read-through by counsel.
- Detect changes outside the four corners of the document (e.g., side letters).
- Validate signature authority.
