What it delivers
- 60%
- Faster contract cycle time
- 40%
- Lower legal review costs
- 100%
- Compliance visibility
- 0
- Missed renewals
Templates, clause bank and parallel approvals compress draft-to-execute from weeks to days.
AI clause analysis and summaries handle routine review, freeing counsel for strategic work.
Every contract tagged and tracked against POPIA, GDPR, SOX and IFRS. Audit-ready at all times.
Automated 90/60/30-day alerts and AI renewal recommendations end the auto-renew surprise.
Risk hides in the fine print. Renewals fire on autopilot. Contracts live everywhere but your tenant.
Buried & scattered
Critical agreements sit in inboxes, shared drives and filing cabinets. No single source of truth means nobody knows what has been signed.
Silent auto-renewals
Missed termination windows and auto-renewal traps quietly drain budgets. By the time someone notices, the contract has renewed for another year.
Hidden obligations
SLAs, milestones and penalty clauses buried in dense legal text. Teams breach obligations they never knew existed.
DWx ContractIQ replaces the sprawl with one platform that runs inside Microsoft 365, and adds agentic AI that flags risk before you've read the page. The engines advise; your people decide.
Five agentic AI engines. Proactive, dynamic, real-time.
They do not wait for a lawyer to open the file, they scan every clause, extract every obligation, and surface intelligence the moment it matters. Humans always make the final call.

General Counsel
Risk review in seconds, not hours
“I used to spend three hours on a standard vendor agreement. The Clause Risk Analyser flags the issues in thirty seconds, I just validate and advise.”
Legal Ops
Throughput without the email ping-pong
“Stop routing contracts by inbox. A governed clause bank and parallel approvals move draft-to-signature in days, and every step is on the audit trail.”
Procurement
No more renewal surprises
“I once found out about a renewal the day after the termination window closed. Now I get alerts 90 days out, with an AI recommendation on whether to renew.”
