Deal history as a superior benchmark
An organization’s own negotiated indemnification clause history contains more relevant signals than generic clause libraries: it reflects actual risk allocation patterns, counterparty pushback points, and final negotiated outcomes within that organization.

Benchmark Indemnification Clauses vs. Deal History | Harvey
Extracto original
Your team may already have negotiated hundreds of indemnification clauses. That history often contains more relevant signals than a generic clause library because it shows how your own organization has allocated risk, where counterparties have pushed back, and where comparable negotiations ultimately landed.
Contexto
However, when those agreements are scattered across matter folders and document repositories, using them as a benchmark can require hours of searching, reading, and manually entering terms into a spreadsheet. Vault acts as a central hub that maintains and queries precedent, while review tables structure comparable deal points across document sets.
