Workflows

Drafting

Drafting flows turn your playbook into prose: counter-positions, redlines, and sample emails. Every draft is grounded in your verified standards.

Authoring a whole agreement instead?
This page covers clause-level drafting: counter-positions and redlines on a specific obligation. To create a new agreement from one of your templates (mark fields, approve, generate a .docx into your Drafts folder, then negotiate to signature), see Template authoring & drafts.

Draft from a standard

Give drafting a goal (for example, “draft a liability clause for an MSA we’re vendor on, US-NY law”) and it produces a clause body. clmSpace resolves the applicable standard position and any preferred clause from your library and supplies them as authoritative context, so the draft reflects your playbook rather than generic wording.

Counter-positions

Point drafting at a specific extracted obligation (for example, the counterparty’s proposed liability cap) and it returns a counter-position grounded in your playbook: preferred, fallback and walk-away clauses, each with a rationale and a sample email.

Where drafting surfaces in the UI

  • The Draft modal on an obligation in the Obligations grid.
  • The Negotiate view on the Deviations tab.
  • The Draft recommendation block in a renewal pack.
Standards-injected drafting
Drafting quality comes from the context clmSpace supplies: your resolved standard position and your preferred clause text. The better maintained your playbook, the better the drafts.
