The challenge

Finding the contract is only part of finding the answer

Contracts are often scattered across teams, folders, and systems. Even when they’re stored together, comparing terms can still mean reading agreements one by one.

Contracts are scattered across teams

Different teams keep agreements in their own folders and systems. Finding a contract starts with figuring out where to look and who to ask.

You know the question, not the filename

You need to know which contracts contain a particular clause or term. Finding one document doesn’t answer a question that spans many contracts.

Contract knowledge depends on people

Knowing which terms matter often rests with a few colleagues. When they leave or change roles, others have to piece that knowledge together.

How Zefort helps

Get to the details that answer your question

Search for clauses, investigate questions with Zefort Agent, and use Playbooks to check agreements against your organization’s requirements. Review the findings against the original wording.

01 / Search

Search contract text and narrow the results

Start with a keyword, phrase, or supplier name you remember. Zefort searches inside the documents themselves, including scanned PDFs processed with OCR, so you don’t need to know the filename first.

Use contract metadata to narrow the results by counterparty, status, or contract type. If your team needs the same view regularly, save the search for next time.

02 / Filter

Ask a question across several agreements

Comparing termination terms across suppliers means reviewing several agreements together. You need to see where the terms differ and where important information is missing.

Zefort Agent can work across contracts and metadata you have permission to access, prepare findings, and suggest next steps for your review. Your team decides which proposed actions to approve.

03 / Verify

Check the original wording before you act

Whether you find a clause through search or get a comparison from Zefort Agent, legal and procurement still need to check what the agreement actually says. Open the source document and read the wording in context before relying on the result.

For questions about a single contract, AI Chat can provide answers with source quotations when enabled. Zefort Agent can also suggest updates to contract information or follow-up tasks, which you review before anything is applied.
