The AI read his enterprise software contract and caught the two year lock-in the salesperson never mentioned

He was negotiating a contract for an enterprise SaaS product. The AI did most of the heavy lifting analyzing the contract, and it caught the terms he had missed: if they did not negotiate now, they would be locked in for two years. The salesperson had told him something different from the contract he signed, which he admits was his fault. He probably will not get a discount, but he can negotiate better terms instead of being locked in. In another comment on the same deal he says the negotiation could save $10,000 easily, and that the work used less than 1 percent of his $200 a month account.

$10,000
This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. Hand the contract to the AI for analysis
  2. It flags the clause that locks them in for two years without negotiation now
  3. He goes back into the negotiation knowing the real terms

Why it’s worth knowing

The value was in one clause: the difference between what the salesperson said and what the paper said.
