The premise
AI can run a first-pass redline on a vendor MSA against a company playbook, surfacing nonstandard terms with proposed fallback language.
What AI does well here
- Compare every clause against the playbook and tag deviations as accept, push, or reject.
- Generate fallback language for the top five reject items in playbook-consistent voice.
What AI cannot do
- Replace counsel's judgment on regulator-sensitive or jurisdiction-specific terms.
- Decide which battles are worth holding the deal over vs. accepting with mitigation.
