What this outcome delivers

Contract reviews shouldn't bottleneck deals or depend on whoever's available that day. Yet most Legal teams still handle first-pass reviews manually, with inconsistent quality and turnaround times.

With Onalu, you delegate first-pass contract review as a managed outcome. We apply your playbook automatically, identify deviations, flag risks, and deliver a redlined document or risk summary within a guaranteed timeframe — complete with auditable evidence of how every decision was made.

How it works

1 Delegate the request

Submit a contract for review via your CLM, email dropbox, or Onalu UI/API. Specify counterparty and deal type; the correct playbook and SLA are automatically applied.

2 Onalu delivers the outcome

Governed AI applies your playbook rules line-by-line, highlighting deviations and suggesting redlines. Deterministic checks ensure required clauses and data are present. If AI or policy thresholds are exceeded, the matter escalates to counsel under your predefined workflow. You don't review drafts — you receive verified redlines and rationale.

3 Receive verified proof

Onalu returns the redlined document, rule-exception log, and review summary to your CLM and CRM. Every output includes timestamps, reviewer or AI decision paths, and escalation records — a complete audit trail for every clause evaluated.
