Reading fifty agreements to answer one question is not legal judgment — it is retrieval. Ask the question once, get a table back, and spend the judgment on the rows that are actually difficult.
Grounding · Meridian MSA § 14.3 “Neither party may assign this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party.”Every extracted value records the passage it came from.
THE PRODUCT PRINCIPLE
A review is only useful if every cell can be traced back to the page it came from.
A review run asks the same defined questions of every document in scope and returns the answers as a structured table. Each value records the passage that produced it, so the attorney checking the work is reading the source text rather than trusting a summary.
Ask the same question of everything
The review table is the shape this work has always wanted: documents down the side, the questions you actually care about across the top.
Define the columns
Set the questions the review has to answer — governing law, assignment, change of control, termination right, notice period — once, for the whole set.
Run across the set
Apply that definition to every document in scope, so the comparison is like-for-like instead of assembled by hand from separate readings.
Persistent runs
A review run and its results are stored against your account. Closing the tab does not discard the work, and the run can be revisited.
Explicit run states
Each document's processing and review state is visible, so a partial result is never mistaken for a complete one.
Every cell carries its evidence
An extracted value with no provenance hands the verification burden back to the attorney in full. Grounding is the point of the feature.
Exact-passage grounding
Each extracted value records the specific passage it came from, not a paraphrase of the document.
Check without leaving
Move from the cell to the supporting text, so verification is a glance rather than a separate document hunt.
Nothing is marked verified
The system records what it extracted and where from. It does not certify that the extraction is correct — that judgment stays with the reviewer.
Owner-scoped throughout
A review, its documents and its results are visible only to the account that created them, enforced in the database and not only in the interface.
IN PRACTICE
The work lawyers bring to it.
Diligence across an agreement set
Isolate which contracts in a set carry change-of-control provisions, and what each one actually requires on a transfer.
Portfolio obligations
Extract notice periods, renewal mechanics and termination rights across a group of agreements into one comparable table.
Deviation from the house position
Compare executed agreements against the firm's stated position and surface the clauses that departed from it.
First-pass issue list
Turn a set of documents into a structured issue list a supervising attorney can triage, rather than a stack to be read in order.
Check a closing set
Confirm that every document in a set contains the provisions it is supposed to contain, and flag the ones that do not.

WHAT RUNS TODAY
Stated plainly, capability by capability.
The authenticated workspace is a working product under active development. Rather than one launch claim, each capability below carries its own state.
Structured review tables
Define columns and run them across documents in scope.
In the workspace
Exact-passage grounding
Each extracted value records the passage behind it.
In the workspace
Persistent review runs and states
Runs, results and processing states are stored per account.
In the workspace
Owner-scoped access
Enforced by row-level security and server-derived ownership.
In the workspace
Scanned documents
OCR for pages native extraction cannot read is implemented, and runs where the document-intelligence service is configured.
In development
Review across a connected DMS
Documents are uploaded today. Pulling a set directly from a document management system is planned.
