- It can range from being a Rule-Based Contract Issue-Focused System, which relies on fixed rules for issue detection, to an AI-Based Contract Issue-Focused System, which adapts and learns from previous contract analysis.
- It can range from being a Memoryless Contract-Related Issue-Focused System, which only analyzes contracts in isolation, to a Contract-Related Issue-Focused System with Memory that retains knowledge of past contract reviews for comparison and context.
- It can range from being a Public Contract-Related Issue-Focused System accessible for general use by non-experts to being an Enterprise Contract-Related Issue-Focused System customized for large organizations or law firms with complex contract portfolios.
- It can range from being a Data-Driven Contract Issue-Focused System that relies on large-scale contract datasets to detect issues to a Knowledge-Enriched Contract Issue-Focused System that uses legal knowledge bases and precedents for more accurate risk identification.
- It can range from being a Cloud-Based Contract-Related Issue-Focused System with centralized data storage and processing to being an On-Device Contract-Related Issue-Focused System for local analysis, offering better data privacy and security.
