"We ran Clauseflint on a 160-document manufacturing acquisition pulled from a Datasite VDR. The change-of-control sweep found three consent requirements we'd missed in the first four-day pass — buried in software subscription agreements that weren't flagged in the paralegal review. Each one was a deal condition that required counterparty consent to close."
