Kavlo
For In-House Legal

Read every signed agreement in your contract base.

Your team inherits thousands of signed agreements and loses hours hunting for a single clause. Kavlo turns that backlog into structured, searchable obligation data with a confidence score on every field.

The problem

The risk you own lives in contracts no one has read since signing.

Obligations, renewal windows, indemnities, and liability caps sit inside signed PDFs across legal, procurement, finance, and security. Industry research from World Commerce & Contracting puts the cost of poor contract management at around 9% of annual revenue.

Unread terms compound into exposure no one has aggregated, and a missed notice window locks in an agreement on the vendor's terms.

What you get

One read across every agreement you have already signed.

EXTRACT

Turn signed contracts into structured obligations.

Connect your document sources once. Kavlo ingests agreements in any format, classifies each one, and extracts the parties, key dates, payment terms, renewal terms, and obligations as structured fields. It infers values such as an end date from the stated term length when the date is not written out.

  • Reads PDF, Word, Excel, scanned images, and email attachments
  • Every field carries a confidence score and a jump-to-source reference
  • Three metadata layers on each field: what it is, plain-language summary, why it was extracted

Score clause risk across the whole portfolio.

Define your blessed standard clauses once. Kavlo builds an organization-wide clause repository and scores every instance High, Medium, or Low with a deviation percentage from your standard. You see total indemnification, limitation-of-liability, and termination exposure across every agreement in force, including expired ones whose obligations survive.

  • Clause types tracked with High/Medium/Low risk and deviation %
  • Indemnity, liability cap, termination, and assignment exposure in one view
  • Compares any clause against your standard and suggests redlines

TRACK

Catch every renewal and notice date before it passes.

Kavlo tracks both the Notice Date and the End Date for each contract and surfaces them on List, Calendar, and Gantt timeline views. The 30, 60, and 90-day windows show what is coming due, with auto-renewal clauses flagged before the notice window closes so an unfavorable renewal never lands by default.

  • 30/60/90-day windows on List, Calendar, and timeline views
  • Tracks both the Notice Date and the End Date
  • Auto-renewal versus manual renewal flagged per contract

Get a suggested redline the moment a clause drifts.

When a clause deviates from the blessed standard you defined, Kavlo proposes a redline that pulls the language back to your approved terms and shows the reasoning behind the change. Your lawyer reviews the suggestion, then accepts it as drafted or edits it before sending, so every counter starts from a position you already trust.

  • Vendor draft compared to your standard, with the deviation marked
  • A proposed redline you can accept as drafted or edit in place
  • Plain-language rationale and a negotiation tip on every suggestion

Smart Redlining

Compared against your blessed standards

High risk
Your standard

Each party's indemnification obligations are capped at the fees paid in the prior twelve (12) months, excluding IP infringement and breach of confidentiality.

Vendor draft

Customer shall indemnify the Vendor without limitation as to amount, for any third-party claim, excluding IP infringement and breach of confidentiality.

Kavlo suggests

43% deviation

Vendor left the customer indemnity uncapped, so exposure runs well above the fees paid. Restore the 12-month fee cap from your blessed standard before signing.

Negotiation tip: cap general indemnity at trailing fees; carve out IP and confidentiality.

In practice

How a General Counsel at a high-growth company uses Kavlo.

The legal team is two lawyers supporting a business that keeps adding vendors, and headcount is frozen. Contracts live in SharePoint, Google Drive, and a dozen inboxes, and answering a simple question, such as which agreements carry uncapped indemnification, means a day of reading.

They connect their document sources to Kavlo, and the signed base is read and structured in place. The clause repository populates on its own: termination, indemnification, liability caps, assignment, and insurance, each scored and measured against the standards the GC defined. Kavlo surfaces a cluster of agreements where indemnity sits well outside the blessed standard, several renewals landing in the same quarter with notice windows about to close, and vendor security commitments that were never tracked after signing.

The GC works the high-risk clauses against the standard using Kavlo's suggested redlines as a starting point, groups the overlapping renewals into a single negotiation, and stands up an approval-gated workflow so the next wave of contracts is reviewed consistently. The volume that used to break the team now flows through one system with an audit trail behind every decision.

Frequently asked questions.

No. A CLM handles pre-signature work like drafting, negotiation, and e-signature. Kavlo works on the signed base afterward: extracting obligations, scoring clause risk, tracking renewals, and powering operations. It connects to your existing document sources and sits alongside the CLM.

Every extracted field comes with a per-field confidence score and a jump-to-source reference, plus three metadata layers explaining what the field is, what it means in plain language, and why it was extracted. Your team verifies low-confidence fields directly against the source, and any field is editable, so the record stays defensible and auditable.

PDF, Word, Excel, scanned images, and email attachments. Kavlo auto-classifies each document by type and normalizes everything into the same structured output, so a scanned legacy agreement and a native PDF land in the same searchable record.

Kavlo compares any clause against the standards you define and suggests redlines with the reasoning behind each one, so your lawyers start from a flagged deviation and a proposed change. The attorney decides what to send. Defining the blessed standard keeps the suggestions anchored to terms you have already approved.

No. Your data is never used for model training. Kavlo runs in a private cloud with full multi-tenant data isolation between organizations, and SOC 2 Type II certification is in progress.
