Contracts negotiated by lawyers who read every line.
One agreement on a deadline or the same paper every week: either way, a Texas-licensed attorney negotiates it, drafts it, and signs off on what you receive. Our tools check each agreement against your positions and your prior deals, so the review is complete and the first redline is ready early.
Fee basis: Fixed fee per agreement or per project, quoted before work starts.
Built for companies in this position.
- Companies with a single important agreement to negotiate: a key customer, a large vendor, a distribution or partnership deal.
- Sales and procurement teams that wait on legal before they can sign.
- Companies without in-house counsel that still see NDAs, MSAs, and vendor paper every month.
- In-house legal teams that want routine agreements handled to their positions so they can work on the rest.
- Founders and operators who currently review contracts themselves at night.
The work product, not a time entry.
A redlined draft, an issues table with recommended positions, and a drafted response to the counterparty, signed off by a Texas-licensed attorney.
- 01
Redlined draft
The counterparty's paper or your template, marked up against your positions. Every change is tracked and visible, so your team sees exactly what moved and why.
DOCX · tracked changes - 02
Issues table
The points that matter, in one table: the clause, what the other side asked for, our recommended position, and the fallback you can accept.
Table · one page - 03
Drafted counterparty response
A cover note to the other side explaining the markup in plain language, ready to send from your own inbox.
Email-ready text - 04
Decision flags
Anything above an agreed threshold (liability caps, indemnities, data terms, unusual payment terms) goes to your decision-maker with a recommendation, not buried in the redline.

What the technology changes for you.
The tools do the reading and cross-checking that a person working by hand tends to compress. A lawyer then decides what the markup should say.
skimmed read in full
- 01Checked against your positions
- Every clause is compared with the positions you hold and the fallbacks you allow, so nothing is accepted by default because it looked standard.
- 02Checked against your prior deals
- When a counterparty or a clause comes back, we can see what you agreed before and keep your positions consistent from one deal to the next.
- 03A first redline early
- The redline, the issues table, and the drafted response are prepared before the lawyer's review, so attorney time goes to judgment, not retyping.
- 04A lawyer signs off
- A Texas-licensed attorney reads the agreement and the markup, corrects what needs correcting, and is accountable for what you receive.
Start from your own paper. Negotiate less.
If you send your own paper first, you negotiate less. We draft or refresh a template suite that matches your positions, so the first draft the other side sees is already close to where you expect to land.

The sequence, step by step.
- 01You do
Send
Forward the agreement by email, drop it in a shared channel, or save it to a shared folder. Add the business context: the deal, the counterparty, anything already promised.
- 02We do
Scope and positions
For a one-off agreement, we confirm the fixed fee and your priorities. For recurring work, we apply the positions we have written down with you. Anything outside scope is flagged before work starts.
- 03We do
Prepare the markup
Our tools check the agreement against your positions and prior deals and prepare a draft redline, issues table, and response.
- 04We do
Attorney review and sign-off
A Texas-licensed attorney reads the agreement and the draft markup, decides what it should say, and signs off. Nothing leaves without that review.
- 05We do
Deliver
You receive the redline, the issues table, and the drafted response in the channel you used to send it.
- 06Together
Decide and negotiate
Points above your thresholds go to your decision-maker with a recommendation. You decide; we carry the decision into the next round.
Timing depends on the matter, the documents, and how quickly decisions come back. We agree on expectations in the written scope.
If one of these is true, it is time to talk.
Send a short description through the intake form, or call. The next step is a short call, then a written scope.
- 01A deal is waiting on legal review before it can close.
- 02An important agreement arrived on the other side's paper.
- 03The same NDA or vendor agreement is negotiated from scratch each time.
- 04Nobody can say which positions the company has accepted before.
- 05A non-lawyer is signing agreements because review takes too long.
How the fee is set.
Fixed fee per agreement or per project, quoted before work starts.
A defined agreement or set of agreements is predictable work, so we quote it as a fixed fee in a written scope before we begin. If the work changes shape, we tell you before doing it.
What clients ask before they call.
Often paired with Commercial Contracts
Business Disputes
Business-side disputes, prepared from the whole record and resolved with the deal in mind.

For recurring volume: a playbook, intake, and routing built into the tools you already use.
