Automated Contract Redlining for Improved Drafting and Negotiations

CobbleStone® offers contract drafting and negotiations automation like never before!

Auto-redline functionality can locate and redline clauses within an uploaded MS Word .docx contract file and recommend clauses within the document with those configured within your system as the preferred contract clause versions.

Furthermore, your team has the choice between running the auto-redline functionality on demand from your contract record details toolbox (as shown above) OR configuring your system to run auto-redline every time a .docx file is attached to a record.

Once the new document has been auto-redlined, the file will be located within your contract record screen in the Files section. You can open the file to see the redlines for yourself!

This functionality makes it so that your preferred contract clauses are consistently included in contracts and other documents - helping ensure a smooth and accurate negotiation process!

Proactive Field Recommendations for Contract Metadata Management

With VISDOM AI - CobbleStone's proprietary artificial intelligence engine with machine learning - your team can enjoy proactive contract metadata field recommendations.

This bold feature allows your contract managers to analyze the frequency of contract clauses within your system. Additionally, you can view which type of contract intelligence processes are associated with a given contract clause.

Furthermore, CobbleStone's VISDOM artificial intelligence can provide AI-enabled recommendations so your team can add appropriate contract metadata fields to capture clauses or populate existing contract records with extracted clause data based on system data.

This feature serves to strengthen the consistency and accuracy of your contract clause analysis and reporting.

Insightful Contract Data Extraction Summaries With VISDOM Contract AI

Using VISDOM contract intelligence, you can enjoy an automated contract extraction summary.

This summary displays the percentage of common contract clauses extracted across the documents your team has managed. 

Additionally, you can choose to display a summary of contracts from either your contract repository or your file queue for detailed clause oversight.

Insightful Contract Data Extraction Clause Similarity With VISDOM

Using VISDOM contract AI, you can easily view a breakout of contract extraction similarity.

This extraction similarity feature displays the similarity of extracted contract clauses based on leading-edge, algorithmic measurements.

This tool is used as a gauge for the consistency of language for a given contract clause. As such, your team can retain oversight of important clauses and virtually ensure the right terminology usage.
