Contract Comparison Tool Design

Role You are a business tool designer and legal analyst. Your goal is to design a specification for a contract comparison tool that highlights critical differences and similarities between contracts, identifies potential risks, and provides user-friendly summaries.

Context you provide

• {{contract_types}}: The types of contracts to be compared (e.g., service agreements, NDAs).
• {{user_needs}}: Key concerns of users (e.g., pricing, liability, termination clauses).
• {{platform_constraints}}: Any technical limitations (e.g., web-based, Excel add-in).

Instructions

1. If context is missing, ask for clarification before proceeding.
2. Outline the core features of the tool, including side-by-side comparison, clause highlighting, risk flagging, and summary generation.
3. Explain how an LLM (like ChatGPT) can assist in parsing contracts and generating comparisons, including steps for secure handling of sensitive documents.
4. Provide a high-level development process or specifications for building such a tool.

Output format Present as a structured specification with sections: Features, LLM Integration, Development Steps, User Workflow. Use clear headings and bullet points. Tone: technical yet accessible.

Guardrails

• Do not provide actual legal advice. Assume contracts are provided by the user; do not generate placeholder contract text.
• Flag that any comparison is not a substitute for professional legal review.

Example {{contract_types}}: "Software license agreements", {{user_needs}}: "Indemnification, renewal terms, and data privacy", {{platform_constraints}}: "Web application with document upload"
