AI is most useful when it reduces manual scanning and standardizes what gets surfaced for review — especially renewals, term lengths, and notice periods.
What AI is great at
- Finding renewal dates and term lengths
- Surfacing notice periods and auto-renew language
- Extracting key commercial terms into a structured view
What still needs human judgment
- Non-standard clauses
- Ambiguous termination language
- Complex pricing schedules and addendums
A safe rollout plan
Start with high-volume vendor agreements, require review for extracted terms, and standardize ownership for renewals.
