Due diligence,
built on evidence.

Every clause pulled verbatim from the document, graded against your firm's playbook, with the supporting precedent shown. Each citation links back to the exact page and paragraph.

Why Cogveo?

Most AI legal tools rewrite the clause.
Cogveo cites it.

Without Cogveo

Hallucinated summaries

Generic LLMs paraphrase. A subtle change in wording can flip indemnity, liability, or notice provisions — and you'll only catch it on the page.


With Cogveo

Every clause is the exact text from the document, with a citation back to the page and paragraph.

Without Cogveo

Opaque grading

A black-box "risk score" tells you what to think but not why. You can't review the model, you can't fix the model, and you can't defend a decision in front of a partner.


With Cogveo

Your firm's playbook drives the grading. Every grade — Green, Yellow, Red, Black — maps to a position you have set out in writing.

Without Cogveo

No precedent

Your firm has signed thousands of contracts. None of that institutional knowledge is at the reviewer's fingertips when they hit a borderline clause.


With Cogveo

For every clause, see the three most similar clauses from your firm's past deals — the precedent behind the grade.

Four pillars. One review surface.

Cogveo focuses on the four things that turn AI extraction into evidence a lawyer will sign off on.

Verbatim extraction

Every clause Cogveo extracts is the exact text from the document — never paraphrased, never rewritten. Each entry links back to the page and paragraph, and is flagged when the match needs a second look.

No citation, no extraction.

Playbook-graded review

Your firm sets the playbook — one per document type. Cogveo grades each clause against your positions and surfaces the deviations in priority order. The rules are yours. The grading follows them.

GREEN YELLOW RED BLACK

Precedent-backed grades

For every clause, Cogveo surfaces the three most similar clauses from your firm's library of signed deals — so the grade comes with evidence, not an opinion. Every matter you close sharpens the next review.

Your precedents become your firm's edge.

Tamper-proof audit trail

Every extraction, grade, reviewer override, and export is permanently recorded. Reproduce any decision months later — for a partner review, a client request, or a regulator.

Defensible by design.

One workflow. Many document types.

The same review process — verbatim extraction, playbook grading, precedent retrieval — works across document types. Each type has its own playbook and its own library of past deals.

Non-disclosure agreements

Mutual and one-way NDAs. Confidentiality, term, return of materials, permitted disclosures, and jurisdiction clauses graded against your playbook.

Commercial contracts & MSAs

Master service agreements, supplier and vendor contracts, distribution terms. SLA, liability, indemnity, and termination clauses against your commercial playbook.

Share purchase agreements

SPAs, asset purchase agreements, and heads of terms. Warranties, indemnities, completion conditions, and earn-out mechanics extracted and graded.

Lease & real estate

Commercial leases, licences to occupy, and property transaction documents. Term, rent review, break clauses, and repair obligations against your real-estate playbook.

How it works.

Four steps from engagement letter to a reviewable extraction grid.

STEP 01

Connect SharePoint

Cogveo reads documents directly from your SharePoint or OneDrive. Files never leave your firm's Microsoft 365 environment.

STEP 02

Upload your playbook

Your firm's playbook — positions on each clause type, the thresholds that trigger Yellow / Red / Black, and the fallback language you will accept.

STEP 03

Cogveo extracts & grades

Cogveo reads the document, extracts every clause verbatim, and grades each one against your playbook with the supporting precedent attached.

STEP 04

Export reports

Review in the workspace grid, then export the extraction grid and the redlining narrative for the deal file.

Two reports. Every matter.

Cogveo produces the two artifacts most contract reviews end with — formatted for the deal file, ready for partner sign-off.

Report 01

Extraction grid

Every clause across every document in the matter, in one grid. Each entry is a verbatim citation with its grade and the precedent it was checked against. Sort by deviation, filter by clause type, or export the whole set.

Report 02

Redlining narrative

A per-document narrative summarising every Yellow, Red, and Black clause, the playbook position it deviates from, and the fallback language suggested from your precedents. Ready to send to the counterparty or paste into your markup.

Your data stays yours.

We do not copy your document management system, we do not train on your documents, and every decision Cogveo makes is logged for audit.

Data stays in your firm

Documents are read directly from SharePoint, in place. Cogveo does not copy your document management system or move files outside your firm's Microsoft 365 environment.

Never used for training

Your playbooks, your precedents, your documents — none of it is ever used to train any model, ours or anyone else's. Your firm's data is isolated from every other firm's.

Built on Azure

Hosted on Microsoft Azure. Documents are encrypted both in storage and in transit. Every action — extraction, grade, override, export — is permanently logged.

SOC 2 Type II certified

Independently audited security, availability, and confidentiality controls. GDPR compliant. Annual third-party assessment with continuous monitoring between audits.

Built for the Microsoft 365 stack.
