In short

The term changed. The master never caught up.

Amendment and exhibit reconciliation compares a master agreement against every amendment, exhibit, schedule and side letter attached to it, identifying which provisions were modified, which were superseded, and which obligations exist only in an attachment. Each conflict is reported with both source clauses so a lawyer can judge it in seconds.

The pattern

How this goes wrong in practice

Nobody sets out to operate under a superseded clause. It happens because the amendment lived in a different folder, or the exhibit arrived after signature.

The amendment nobody propagated

A term is renegotiated and executed. The master agreement is never updated, and six months later the team quotes the original.

The exhibit that arrived late

Exhibit D was finalised two weeks after signature and emailed separately. It contains a reporting obligation. It is not in the contract system.

The side letter

A single-page side letter modifies a liability cap. It is filed with correspondence rather than with the agreement, so no review ever sees it.

Amendment stacking

Four amendments touch the same clause. Only reading all four in order tells you what is currently in force.

The reference to nothing

The body says "as set out in Exhibit C". No Exhibit C exists in the executed package, and nobody noticed at signature.

Numbering drift

Amendment 3 renumbers sections. Every later cross-reference now points somewhere slightly wrong.

What you get

The output

Not a similarity score. A list of specific conflicts, each with the two pieces of language that produced it.

Current-state view

What each material term says right now, after every amendment is applied in order.

Conflict list

Every place the package states two different things, with both clauses quoted and cited.

Attachment inventory

Every exhibit referenced in the body, matched against what is actually present in the executed package.

Obligation extract

Obligations found anywhere in the package, including the ones that exist only in an attachment.

Questions

Common questions

How do you know which amendment is controlling?

By execution date and by what each amendment explicitly supersedes. Where amendments conflict without clear precedence, that ambiguity is itself reported as an exception — because a human needs to decide it, not a model.

Can it handle amendments that were never digitised properly?

Scanned and photographed amendments are read the same way as native files. Poor scans reduce confidence, and low-confidence findings are flagged for review rather than asserted.

What if an exhibit is genuinely missing?

That is reported as a finding. A body reference to an attachment that does not exist in the executed package is one of the most common and most expensive things we surface.

Does it work across a whole contract estate?

Yes, package by package. The unit of reconciliation is one agreement and everything attached to it, run across as many agreements as you have.
