Built for legal, privacy, and procurement

3. Clause-specific drafting
The AI writes the actual negotiated clause, inside your guardrails.

It preserves defined terms and structure, explains the gap, and drafts a replacement using the playbook, vendor context, and prior negotiation memory.

Vendor position
Processor may use customer data to improve services, models, analytics, and related product features.
DataHalt proposed position
Processor shall not use Customer Personal Data, prompts, outputs, logs, embeddings, or fine-tuning data to train or improve any AI model without Customer's prior written consent.
Gap: vendor language allows model improvement using customer data.
Memory: this vendor accepted the no-training position in 8 of 10 prior negotiations.
4. Intelligent escalation
Only the clauses that need judgment reach legal.

Routine positions are handled automatically. High-risk legal text, commercial thresholds, and rejected blockers stay under human control.

Review Queue
Prioritized by legal impact, vendor leverage, and contract value.
