# What does this contract commit us to?

Every obligation in a contract pulled out with its owner, its deadline and the clause it comes from, so nothing depends on who happened to read it.

3. Contract obligations

## Signed and filed. Then forgotten.

Once a contract is signed, what it commits you to lives in clauses that few people read again until something goes wrong.

### Buried in the clauses.

Reporting duties, notice periods and service levels are spread across schedules and amendments.

### Nobody owns them.

An obligation without a named owner is one that nobody acts on.

### Dates that pass quietly.

Renewal windows and notice deadlines go by without a reminder.

## What the AI reads.

Every clause, schedule and amendment read together, so each obligation is stated once, correctly, with its source.

### At work

1. [Sense](https://dscvryai.com/technology/sense/) Reads contracts as they are filed, including scanned and signed copies.
2. [Understand](https://dscvryai.com/technology/understand/) Finds each obligation and works out who owes what to whom, and by when.
3. [Check](https://dscvryai.com/technology/check/) Applies amendments over the original terms, so each obligation reflects what was finally agreed.
4. [Anticipate](https://dscvryai.com/technology/anticipate/) Lists the deadlines coming up and the ones at risk of being missed.
5. [Operate](https://dscvryai.com/technology/operate/) Assigns each obligation to an owner and sends reminders ahead of its date.

### Out

One list of obligations, each with an owner, a date and its clause.

## Every obligation listed. Every one owned.

Legal and the business see what each contract commits you to, who owns it and when it is due, with the clause beside it.
