Document Review
Upload your contracts, tell Judicio what to look for, and get a structured set of findings — each one severity-scored, explained, and cited to the exact page, with a one-click AI fix ready to apply.
- What: Analyse contracts for risks, missing clauses, and compliance issues
- Input: Documents from your File Library (PDF, DOCX, scans — multiple files)
- Output: Structured findings with severity levels, citations, and AI-suggested fixes
- Modes: Deep (thorough) · Concise (fast screening)
- Export: Tracked changes (Word), redline PDF, clean copy, or an issues report — with citations
Why use Document Review
Reading every clause of every contract by hand is slow, and the risk that matters most is easy to miss in a long document set. Document Review reads it all for you and surfaces exactly what needs a lawyer's attention.
Document Review does this by:
- Reading every page of every selected document and running each of your checks against it
- Scoring each finding as High, Medium, or Low risk so you can triage at a glance
- Citing every finding back to the exact page and passage, so each one is verifiable
- Suggesting fixes — replacement clause text you can accept with a single click
- Reviewing in bulk — multiple files in one batch against shared review criteria
How it works
The review process follows a clear pipeline from file selection through to export:
- Select your documents from the Files panel — one file, or multiple files at once.
- Configure the checks. Describe what to look for in plain language under Ask Judicio, let Smart Suggestions recommend checks from your files, or start from a Template.
- Estimate credits. Judicio shows the file count, page count, estimated duration, and credit cost before you commit.
- Judicio analyses each file against your checks, with a live progress stream showing exactly where things stand.
- Review the findings — organised by risk level, each showing the relevant clause, the issue, an explanation, and a confidence score.
- Resolve each finding — accept an AI fix, write your own edit, accept the clause as-is, or flag it for a colleague.
- Export tracked-changes Word files, redline PDFs, clean copies ready for execution, or a PDF issues report.
Credit Cost
Document Review is billed per file, based on the page count, number of checks, and mode (Deep vs Concise). See Credits Explained for the formula.
