Document Q&A vs. Document Intelligence
Mage understands your documents. Tower asks questions about them. The difference shows up in every part of the diligence workflow.
Mage systematically extracts 200+ clause types across 14 legal categories into a structured grid. Change of control, liability caps, termination rights, IP assignment, non-competes, and more. Each extraction is risk-scored and cited to the source text. Tower lets you ask questions one at a time.
Every document is automatically classified across 50+ categories and linked to related documents. Mage detects amendment chains, identifies which provisions supersede earlier versions, and extracts the current effective terms. Other tools treat each document as an island.
Mage covers the full lifecycle: data room ingestion, document classification, structured extraction, redline comparison, variance detection, disclosure schedules, closing checklists, and firm-branded memos. No spreadsheets alongside. No switching between tools. One platform for the entire deal.
What Sets Mage Apart
Structured Extraction, Not Ad-Hoc Q&A
Mage systematically extracts every material provision across your entire data room into a structured tabular view. Predefined risk checks across 14 categories with automatic red and yellow flagging. Every extraction cited to the source text. Export to Excel, PDF, and Word. Tower lets you ask questions and get answers. Mage has the answers waiting for you.
Legal-Native Intelligence
Mage does not just read documents. It understands how legal documents relate to each other. Amendment chains are detected and linked. Superseded provisions are identified. Cross-references between agreements are resolved. When Mage extracts a termination provision, it knows whether a later amendment changed it.
Disclosure Schedule Automation
Mage auto-populates disclosure schedules from the merger agreement itself. Provision-specific guidance, trigger analysis, cross-referencing against the data room, item-level verification, and version tracking with diffs. Export ready for closing. Tower has no disclosure schedule capability.
Variance Detection and Form Discovery
Upload 100 customer agreements and Mage automatically identifies the standard form, detects which contracts deviate, and surfaces exactly which clauses differ and why they matter. Combined with redline comparison for transaction documents, you get complete coverage of both portfolio-level and deal-level changes.
