Yes. The Clause Check and Risk Assessment nodes are both prompt- and data-driven, meaning you can update the review checklist or adjust the risk thresholds to match NDAs, vendor agreements, or partnership contracts. This makes the workflow reusable across multiple review frameworks.
The Risk Assessment node uses your defined risk profile to evaluate each issue based on context like missing indemnity clauses or altered liability terms. Each flagged item is scored and explained, helping reviewers quickly distinguish between minor deviations and high-risk contract terms.
You can set up a human validation step by adding a Reviewer Approval node or using Vellum’s human-in-the-loop functionality. This ensures flagged issues are reviewed by a legal team member before summaries are finalized or sent to external stakeholders.
Definitely. The Summary node’s prompt can be modified to produce versions tailored for executives, clients, or internal counsel, like a high-level summary with risk highlights or a detailed redline-ready report. You can also export outputs in Markdown, HTML, or JSON formats.
The same structure works for policy compliance checks, due diligence reviews, or internal risk audits. By changing the checklist inputs and document sources, this becomes a general-purpose document evaluation agent for any domain requiring structured review and reasoning.
