DPA Clause Reviewer

What does this mean?

Legal reviews DPAs faster with consistent clause coverage, reducing negotiation cycles and risk while keeping contract standards intact.

How it works?

Ingests data processing agreements from uploaded files or contract repositories, scans for data residency, subprocessor, and audit clauses, flags gaps against a standard checklist, and outputs a redlined draft with suggested edits and a summary of required changes for Legal.

Workflow steps

Step 1: Upload or sync the DPA

The Workflow begins when a data processing agreement is uploaded manually or synced from your contract repository, making the document available for analysis.

Step 2: Scan for key clauses

Cassidy parses the agreement and identifies critical sections—data residency terms, subprocessor provisions, audit rights, and other standard DPA clauses.

Step 3: Flag gaps against your checklist

The Workflow compares the identified clauses against your organization's standard DPA checklist and flags any missing or incomplete coverage.

Step 4: Generate redlined draft with suggested edits

For each flagged gap, Cassidy drafts recommended language and produces a redlined version of the agreement showing proposed additions and modifications.

Step 5: Summarize required changes

The Workflow compiles a clear summary of all flagged issues and suggested edits, giving Legal a quick-reference list of what needs attention before signing.

Step 6: Route for review

The redlined draft and change summary are exported as a Microsoft Word document and sent to the appropriate team member for final review and negotiation.
