Know how far you can go
Latitude reads the other side’s paper against your playbook, flags every deviation with a severity you can act on, drafts your approved fallback straight into the document, and sends only the genuine escalations to a lawyer.
Built for the procurement team doing legal review without being lawyers — and the one-to-three-person legal team that has to trust them.
Their paper
Meridian Cloud — Vendor MSA
Limitation of liability
§ 9.2Supplier's total liability shall not exceed the fees paid in the three (3) months preceding the claim. twelve (12) months preceding the claim, save that no cap shall apply to liability arising from breach of confidentiality, data protection obligations or indemnified IP claims
Your playbook
12 months' fees, with no cap on data breach or IP indemnity.
Escalate — outside fallback range
1/5Synthetic agreement. Illustration only.
Everything that arrives on somebody else’s paper.
The contract is already
on their terms.
Mid-market companies sign hundreds of vendor agreements, NDAs, DPAs and MSAs a year, almost always on the counterparty's paper. There is no team big enough to read all of it properly, so most of it gets skimmed by whoever is closest to the deal.

in-house lawyers at a typical mid-market company, against hundreds of agreements a year.
Typical of the segment
Most
third-party paper is reviewed by someone in procurement rather than someone in legal.
Industry estimate
$20k–150k
a year, per-seat with expansion priced on contract volume.
Commercial model
Segment figures describe the problem and are cited as estimates. The price range describes our commercial model, not a rate card. Neither is Latitude’s measured result.
How it works
Their paper in. A sent email out.
Five steps, run on every agreement that lands, with your own positions doing the deciding.
It learns your positions from what you already signed
You do not write a playbook from scratch. Latitude reads your executed agreements and past redlines and infers the positions you actually hold — your preferred wording, what you conceded and how often, and where you have never moved.
You review and confirm the inferred playbook before it is used on anything. Nothing is enforced that a person has not signed off.
Every deviation, with a severity you can act on
Their paper is compared clause by clause against your playbook. Each deviation is flagged as a blocker, a caution, or within playbook — so the person holding the document knows immediately what they can wave through and what they cannot.
Severity is set by your playbook, not by us. If limitation of liability is a blocker at your company, it is a blocker here.
The fallback is inserted, not just requested
Where your playbook has an approved fallback, Latitude drafts it into the document as a tracked change — their language struck, yours inserted — so what goes back to the counterparty is a real redline rather than a list of complaints.
Tracked changes in the actual Word file, so the counterparty sees a document they can work with.
And the email that has to go with it
A redline with no explanation gets a phone call. Latitude drafts the covering note in your house tone: what changed, why, which points are firm and which are open, and what you need back to sign.
Edit and send. The draft is a starting point, never something that goes out on its own.
Only the ones that genuinely need a lawyer
A deviation outside every approved fallback, a clause the playbook has never seen, or anything on your escalation list goes to legal with the context already assembled — the clause, the position, the history, and what has been agreed elsewhere.
The point is not that legal sees less. It is that legal sees the right ones, with the work already done.
Who it's for
One playbook, two people who need it
For procurement
You are reviewing contracts. You are not a lawyer.
Somebody has to read the vendor's MSA before it gets signed, and increasingly that somebody is you. Latitude tells you which clauses are actually a problem, inserts the wording legal already approved, and escalates the two that genuinely need them — so the deal does not sit in a queue for a week.
- Know immediately what you can wave through
- Send back a real redline, not a list of questions
- Escalate with the context already assembled
For in-house legal
Three of you. Four hundred agreements.
You are not trying to review less carefully. You are trying to stop reviewing the same NDA for the ninetieth time. Latitude enforces the positions you already hold and routes you the ones that are actually outside them.
- Your playbook, applied consistently by everyone
- See the escalations, not the volume
- Every position traceable to something you approved
Where it runs
In Word, and in the queue the request came from
Nobody is going to paste a contract into another tab. The review happens in the document, as tracked changes, and the status lands back in the ticket the business raised — so the requester sees progress without asking.
Named integrations are agreed per engagement. Latitude claims no partnership or certification it has not signed.
How it is constrained
A drafting tool, held to drafting-tool limits
Four constraints decide whether your legal team will let procurement anywhere near this. They are commitments in the contract, not claims on a website.
01
The playbook is yours, and you approve it
Latitude infers your positions from your own history, then asks you to confirm them. Nothing is enforced against a live contract until a person has signed off on the position it is enforcing. An inferred playbook nobody checked is just a confident guess.
02
Nothing is sent on its own
There is no path in the product where a redline reaches a counterparty without a person pressing send. Drafting is the job; deciding is not, and the difference matters more here than almost anywhere.
03
It flags what it has not seen
A clause with no playbook position is reported as unknown rather than approximated to the nearest rule. In contract review a confident wrong answer costs far more than an honest gap, because nobody re-reads a clause that came back green.
04
Latitude is not your lawyer
It is a drafting and triage tool used by your team. It does not give legal advice, does not create a solicitor- or attorney-client relationship, and does not replace the judgement your counsel is there to exercise.
