Review Tables

Bulk-extract terms across many contracts at once. Pick a preset, select contracts, click run. Every cell fills in with answer, citation, and confidence.

A Review Table is a spreadsheet where the AI does the data entry. Each row is a contract or uploaded file. Each column is a question ("End date", "Total value", "Auto-renews?"). When you run the table, the AI reads every contract and answers every column for it — with a citation back to the source.

Presets

QuickContract ships with five Review Table presets:

  • Renewal Tracker — end date, renewal terms, notice windows, auto-renewal mechanics, owner action
  • Vendor Risk Review — liability cap, IP ownership, termination rights, indemnification, data protection terms
  • Sales Contract Summary — parties, value, term, payment terms, scope, deliverables
  • Lease Terms — landlord, tenant, premises, rent, term, renewal options, default provisions
  • Employment Agreement Review — role, compensation, equity, termination, non-compete, confidentiality

Custom columns

You can add your own columns to any table. Each column has:

  • Name — how it appears in the header
  • Type — text, date, currency, boolean, risk_rating, clause_excerpt, recommendation. Drives how the AI formats the answer.
  • Extraction instruction — the question the AI answers for this column

In the create dialog, write each column on its own line as Column name | type | extraction instruction. Custom columns replace the preset’s columns when supplied.

Creating a table

  1. Click New Table.
  2. Give it a name.
  3. Pick a preset (or leave a preset selected and add custom columns to extend).
  4. Optionally write custom columns.
  5. Select the contracts and uploaded files you want to analyze.
  6. Click Create Table. The table appears in the grid view.

Running cells

From the table view you can:

  • Run Table — runs every pending cell. Long-running tables (50+ contracts) can take a few minutes.
  • Run Column — rerun every cell in a single column. Useful when you tweak a column’s extraction instruction.
  • Run Cell — rerun one cell. The cell shows a spinner while running.

Each cell shows the answer, a confidence percentage, and an excerpt from the source contract showing where the answer came from. You can edit any cell manually — manual edits are marked with the edited status.

Full-screen mode

For tables with many columns, click the Expand button in the table header. The grid takes over the entire window with its own slim toolbar. Press Esc or click Collapse to return.

Exporting

Click Export CSV in the table header to download the data as a CSV file. The export includes:

  • One column per data column
  • One paired “Citations” column right after each data column, containing the locator and excerpt

Cell values that begin with =, +, -, or @ are escaped to prevent Excel from interpreting them as formulas.

When to use Review Tables vs other tools

Review Tables are designed for portfolio-scale analysis — tens or hundreds of contracts at once. For a single contract, the Risk Playbook flow gives you richer findings (severity, suggested fixes, applyable changes). For an open-ended question across one or two pinned contracts, the Legal Advisor is faster.
