Send this to your assistant

Create a ClickRuntime automation: when a new contract appears in my Drive folder, have AI flag risky clauses and create a Notion page with the findings.

Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Why use it

Why teams use this automation

A small agency signs supplier agreements, client contracts and NDAs every month, and has no in-house lawyer. Contracts get a quick skim before signing, and the auto-renewal clause or the unlimited liability term is found only when it causes a problem.

This automation gives every document a first review. When a new file appears in the Drive folder, its text is read and AI lists the key terms and anything that looks risky, such as renewal traps, payment terms, liability and termination. The findings go into a Notion page so the team can discuss them before anyone signs.

What you get out of it

Nothing gets signed unread
Every document dropped in the folder gets a review, even in a busy week. Risky terms are flagged before signing, not after.
Know where to look
The review points to the clauses that matter, so a lawyer or manager can focus their time. A short targeted check costs far less than a full review.
A record of every agreement
Each document gets a Notion page with its key dates and terms. Finding a renewal date or notice period takes seconds.
Works for invoices and finance documents too
The same review can check invoices against agreed rates or flag unusual payment terms. You choose what the review looks for.

How it works

Build your own

Need it to work differently?

This template is a starting point. Copy the prompt and change it, or describe a different automation from scratch, with your own conditions, more apps or an AI step. Your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.

Your own rules
Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.
Any number of apps
One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.
AI where it helps
Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.
On a schedule or on each event
Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

Changes you can ask for

Act only on the items that match your own rules, and skip the rest
Change what the AI looks for, or how it writes the result
Add another app, for example also send it to Slack
Combine it with other Google Drive and Notion steps into one automation

Under the hood

The code that runs this automation

This is the Python script that runs each time the automation starts. Your AI assistant writes it for you when you send the prompt, and you allow each step in your assistant. To change how the automation works, describe the change to your assistant and it updates the script for you. For every function it can use, see the script reference.

FAQ

Common questions

Which file types can it read?

Google Docs, PDFs with selectable text and Word files. Scanned images without text need to be run through text recognition first.

What does the review look for?

By default: parties, dates, renewal and notice periods, payment terms, liability, termination and anything unusual. You can add your own checks, such as your standard payment terms.

Does this replace a lawyer?

No. It is a first read that highlights what to check. For high-value or unusual agreements, the findings help you brief a lawyer quickly.

What permissions does it need?

drive.readonly; Notion insert content. Nothing else in your accounts is used.

Does it need AI?

Yes. It uses ClickRuntime's built-in AI, so you don't need an OpenAI or Anthropic key. Every plan includes a monthly AI allowance.

How many runs does it use?

One run each time it checks. Checks that find nothing new and stop right away aren't counted.

Can I change how it works?

Yes. Describe the change to your AI assistant, for example a different schedule, channel or filter. It updates the automation, tests it and tells you what changed.
