Bijection for Legal
Obligations you can query. Not re-read.
The auto-renewal on page 14 becomes a date every system can act on.
- Contract intake
- Notice windows
- Amendments
- NDA requests
- Obligations
- Change of control
The auto-renewal is on page 14 of a signed PDF in DocuSign, and the notice period is on page 22. Someone is supposed to put both in a calendar, and usually does.
Bijection turns renewal dates, notice periods and caps into typed fields linked to their clause. A model proposes each term, and nothing is recorded until a person confirms it. Once recorded, every system can act on the date.
Contract intake
Starts: A contract is signed in DocuSign
- Link it to the counterparty and the deal it came from.
- A model proposes the key terms, each tied to its clause.
- A lawyer confirms them before they are recorded.
Notice windows
Starts: A notice window opens
- Ask the contract owner to renew or exit.
- The request waits until they decide.
- If they exit, the notice letter is drafted for review.
Amendments
Starts: Someone proposes changing a term
- Show the clause, the current value and the new one.
- A second reviewer approves.
- The term updates, and its history is kept.
NDA requests
Starts: Sales asks for an NDA
- Fill the standard template with the counterparty’s details.
- Changes to standard terms go to a lawyer.
- The signed NDA is linked to the counterparty.
Obligations
Starts: A contract carries a reporting obligation
- Record the obligation and its due date.
- Remind the owner before it is due.
- Keep the evidence that it was met.
Change of control

- A lawyer checks the assignment and change-of-control clauses.
