Contract versions being compared

Version comparison of two documents is used when an existing contract document has a version with changes that need to be reviewed in their overall context. The changes affect individual content and are mostly based on the original document.

Contracts being compared

Contract comparison of two documents is used to compare different contracts. Apart from the overarching purpose of the documents, there is no structural or semantic comparability. The documents are scanned and differences are compared in a thematically structured way.

What KOALaw Can Do

Three use cases.
One tool.

KOALaw covers the three comparison operations that currently take weeks of manual work.
The analysis is more precise, faster, and backed by traceable source references.

Section Comparison

Clause contrary to your standard.

Select a section of the contract. KOALaw checks it against your own clause library or standard template and highlights any semantic discrepancies.

Example

The liability clause ultimately imposes stricter limitations than your draft. It completely excludes consequential damages, whereas your standard clause covers intentional acts and gross negligence.

Version Comparison

What has really changed?

Compare two versions of the same contract. KOALaw also identifies changes that have not been marked as “Track Changes” and explains their business implications.

Example

In the section on force majeure, the wording was softened, even though the text is entirely new. This gives the supplier more leeway than in the previous version.

Contract Comparison

A direct comparison of contracts on the same topic.

Compare several contracts with similar purposes. KOALaw shows you where they differ in terms of meaning and risk—even when the wording is completely different.

Example

You are negotiating with two suppliers at the same time. At first glance, both framework agreements look similar. KOALaw shows you that Supplier A limits liability to annual revenue, while Supplier B limits it only to the order value. With Supplier A, penalties are capped, while with Supplier B, they are unlimited.

Who is KOALaw designed for?

KOALaw was developed for the departments where contracts are drafted.
The software supports purchasing, IT, sales, and management
even for companies without their own legal department.
