Move legal and compliance work faster with AI agents that use the latest policies and approvals.

A negotiating position changes. A retention rule is updated. New regional guidance takes effect. A contract exception is approved. Rithmo brings those decisions together and gives every AI agent the legal and compliance context it needs before it reviews, approves or updates work.

The business changes

  • Clause 7 now non-negotiable
  • Records retained for seven years
  • EU transfer guidance updated
  • 2x liability cap approved

Rithmo

Checks current context

Compares what the agent is about to act on against what the company has actually settled and the evidence that established it.

  • Proceed

    Current, and nothing contradicts it

  • Blocked

    A newer decision takes precedence

  • Resolve

    The right owner supplies the missing answer

Your agent

Responds, acts or asks for a decision

Higher-value legal work

Put agents on real legal and compliance work

Move AI agents beyond summaries. Put them on contract reviews, clause checks, policy updates, compliance evidence and the other work that keeps the business moving.

Consistent positions

Use approved terms in every agreement

Rithmo checks the latest contract positions, policies, regional requirements and approved exceptions before an agent acts. Every review reflects what legal and compliance have approved now.

Autonomy by default

Scale legal work without scaling review

Rithmo checks each action automatically. Approved language moves forward, valid exceptions are applied and people only step in when a real decision is still needed.

The gap this closes

Keep every agent aligned with the latest legal decisions

Contract positions, policy guidance and approved exceptions are often agreed in meetings, messages and email. Rithmo turns those decisions into clear guidance that every legal and compliance agent can use.

Decisions start in conversation

A negotiating position changes during a compliance review. Rithmo connects that decision to the playbook and the agreements agents work from afterward.

Requirements vary by matter and region

A fallback clause may be approved for one agreement but not another, and the right policy may depend on the country, the customer, the product or the data involved.

Every change needs a clear scope

A new policy may apply only to new agreements, to certain regions, or to work completed after a specific date. Rithmo establishes where the decision applies before an agent uses it.

Every exception needs clear authority

Rithmo connects contract exceptions, policy deviations and special approvals to the person who approved them, including any limits or expiry dates.

Rithmo checks decisions across the tools your team already uses and gives agents clear guidance before they return an agreement.

What your agents get

Make sure every agent acts on current decisions.

Verify before acting

An agent asks what is current before it takes an action, while the action is still reversible.

Connect new decisions to existing guidance

Rithmo connects a new decision to the information it supersedes or clarifies, across the places people already work.

Confirm what the agent can do

Approved actions move forward automatically. Newer decisions take precedence. Unclear cases go to the person who owns the answer.

Ask the right person when the answer is unclear

When the answer cannot be safely determined, the owner receives a focused question. Once answered, the agent continues.

Preserve the evidence

The check, the sources, the decision and the final action all land in one clear record.

Work with any agent

Works with agents built on any platform, so it is not tied to one model, team, workflow or business system.

The three outcomes

Every checked legal or compliance action ends one of three ways

Actions based on approved policies and contract positions proceed immediately. Newer decisions take precedence over stale agent context. Anything genuinely unclear goes to the person who owns the decision.

Proceed
Contract exception

The approved contract position moves forward

What changed
The general counsel approves a liability cap of two times annual fees for a strategic customer, in place of the standard one-times cap.
What the agent reads
The approved two-times cap recorded for this agreement.
What Rithmo finds
The approval covers this customer and this agreement, and no newer decision has replaced it.
What happens
The agent updates the agreement with the approved liability cap. The exception and the check against it are both recorded.
Blocked
Negotiating position

The latest approved clause takes precedence

What changed
Legal makes Clause 7 non-negotiable after a compliance review, having previously allowed a fallback.
What the agent reads
The previous contract playbook, which still allows the fallback language.
What Rithmo finds
The current negotiating position requires Clause 7 to stand unchanged.
What happens
Rithmo stops the redline before it goes back with the fallback language. The agent uses the approved clause and completes the review.
Resolve
Record retention

One clear answer keeps the review moving

What changed
Compliance increases the retention period for regulated records from five years to seven years.
What the agent reads
A group of existing records scheduled for deletion under the previous five-year policy.
What Rithmo finds
The seven-year requirement is approved, but the decision does not say whether it covers records already scheduled for deletion.
What happens
The compliance owner receives one question: should the seven-year period apply to these existing records? Once answered, the agent applies the confirmed retention policy.
Audit trail

Every legal action comes with a clear record

Rithmo records the policy, the approval, the supporting evidence and the final action behind every check. When legal leadership, compliance or an auditor asks why a position was used, the complete answer is already available.
