Veritas
Veritas: Autonomous Multi-Jurisdictional Contract Compliance Agent Veritas is an Agentic AI solution built on IBM watsonx Orchestrate that transforms manual contract review into a verifiable, autonomous compliance process. It functions as a Policy Enforcement Engine to mitigate legal risk and accelerate business cycles. The Idea: To eliminate the lengthy, error-prone task of manual contract triage by programming the organization’s legal intelligence directly into the workflow. Agentic Process & Technology: Grounded Reasoning (ReAct): Veritas orchestrates IBM Document Processing (to extract data) and watsonx.ai (for risk calculation). Its reasoning is grounded in a proprietary Knowledge Base: the Global Legal Playbook and the Delegation of Authority (DOA) Matrix. Risk & Compliance: The agent strictly validates terms against multi-jurisdictional rules (UK, German BGB, Pakistan Contract Act 1872). It calculates a quantitative Risk Score (0-100) to prioritize legal review and identifies "Prohibited" terms (e.g., Unlimited Liability) as critical blocks. Intelligent Routing: Veritas determines the correct final approver by applying Category Override Rules from the DOA Matrix (e.g., routing any Software contract to the CTO regardless of price), demonstrating complex logic beyond simple value thresholds. Business Impact: Reduces contract triage time from days to seconds, guarantees 100% policy compliance, and ensures every high-risk deal is routed to the correct executive expert immediately.

"Application of Technology: Excellent use of watsonx Orchestrate with ReAct reasoning pattern, IBM Document Processing, and watsonx.ai integration; the proprietary Knowledge Base (Global Legal Playbook, DOA Matrix) demonstrates sophisticated grounding and true agentic orchestration. Presentation: Well-structured submission with clear technical architecture, specific components (risk scoring 0-100, Category Override Rules), and concrete examples (UK, German BGB, Pakistan Contract Act); demonstrates depth of implementation. Business Value: Strong enterprise appeal with quantifiable impact (days to seconds), addresses real legal/procurement pain point, and the multi-jurisdictional compliance angle serves global organizations facing complex regulatory landscapes. Originality: The combination of quantitative risk scoring, prohibited term detection, and intelligent DOA-based routing with jurisdiction-specific rules creates a differentiated solution beyond generic contract review tools."
