From sponsor deals to concert riders to indemnity wording, one commercial team handles every negotiation. Genie sits in the middle of the workflow, helping them draft contracts, weigh redlines, and get to a position the same afternoon.
What partnership leads and legal ask before rolling Genie out.
Can business development move partnership deals without waiting for legal?
Yes. Legal records the positions the business will accept once, and Genie reviews incoming partnership, reseller and NDA paperwork against them, so early-stage deals are not held by a review queue.
HoSt Group gives 25 commercial seats to its sales and commercial teams on exactly this basis and reports 80% faster reviews.
How does Genie handle NDAs and partnership agreements?
NDAs are the clearest case for self-service: once your positions sit in the playbook, standard NDAs are issued and reviewed without routing each one to legal. Partnership and reseller terms are reviewed the same way against the positions you accept.
Firefish, a market research agency of 50 to 100 people with its own in-house legal function, cut contract review time by more than 50% and now handles the same volume with half the legal availability.
Who decides which partnership terms we can accept?
Legal does, in the playbook: exclusivity, IP, revenue share and termination positions recorded once rather than negotiated from scratch.
Business development then works inside those boundaries and escalates only genuine exceptions.
Does Genie work inside Microsoft Word?
Yes. Genie works directly in Microsoft Word, so you review and redline in the document your counterparty actually sent, rather than moving it into another system and breaking your review trail.
E-signature is available through DocuSign and Adobe Acrobat Sign integrations.
Can Genie draft reseller and partnership agreements from our own standards?
Yes. Genie drafts from your standards rather than a fixed form, so a reseller agreement, memorandum of understanding or partnership contract reflects your own positions.
You describe the arrangement in plain English and Genie produces a first draft.
What happens when a counterparty's redline falls outside our playbook?
Genie flags the deviation instead of accepting it. The change is identified against the specific position it breaches, so whoever reads it can see what was altered, why it matters, and whether it needs a decision from legal.
Escalation is the feature rather than the failure. It is how legal stays in control of the standard while everything inside the standard keeps moving.
How quickly can a business development team start?
The practical gate is the playbook rather than the software, and NDAs are usually the first thing captured because they are the highest volume and the least contentious.

I would urge other companies to use AI software to support them. It really improves the timeline for negotiating contracts. And it builds confidence in your commercial team to do the negotiations themselves.
