    • Analyze contract clauses for risk, compliance, and negotiation strategy.
    • Auto-redline contracts based on learned preferences and legal standards.
    • Route contracts intelligently to the correct stakeholders.
    • Continuously learn from past decisions to improve future workflows.

    This will result in intelligent contract automation that adapts to evolving business needs.
