The Typing Problem

Contract summaries that take longer to write than negotiate

You just finished a two-hour negotiation call with a vendor. You know every term that changed, every concession made, every point still open. But documenting it all takes another hour of typing. By the time you finish the summary, you have three more contracts waiting for review. The backlog grows while your fingers try to keep up with your brain.

Negotiation notes that get lost between calls

The vendor called back with a counteroffer. You need to reference what was discussed last Tuesday, but your notes are scattered across emails, Word docs, and sticky notes. You remember the conversation perfectly — you could explain it in two minutes — but you never had time to type it up properly. Now you're reconstructing from memory before the next call.

Vendor correspondence piling up in your drafts folder

Twelve vendors are waiting for responses. Each email needs careful wording about pricing adjustments, term modifications, or renewal conditions. You know exactly what to say to each one, but typing formal correspondence takes twenty minutes per email. Your draft folder grows. Vendors follow up. Relationships strain while your fingers fall behind your expertise.

Amendment documentation that nobody has time to maintain

The contract was amended three times since signing. Each amendment changed key terms that affect compliance and obligations. Documenting the cumulative effect of all amendments should be straightforward — you understand them perfectly. But typing the consolidated summary keeps getting pushed to tomorrow. Tomorrow never comes.

Renewal tracking notes that slip through the cracks

Sixty contracts are up for renewal in the next quarter. Each needs a status note about performance, pricing discussions, and recommended actions. You could verbally brief anyone on each contract in three minutes. But typing sixty status updates at fifteen minutes each means fifteen hours of documentation. The renewals happen with incomplete records because there simply is not enough time to type it all.

Real Scenarios

Drafting vendor correspondence between meetings

You have ten minutes before your next call and need to respond to a vendor about delayed deliverables. Hold and dictate: 'Thank you for the update on the implementation timeline. While we understand the resource constraints, the revised schedule of March 15th does not meet our operational requirements. Please provide options for accelerating delivery or reducing scope to maintain the original February 28th date.' Professional correspondence drafted in forty-five seconds. Send and move to the next task.

Creating contract summaries while reviewing documents

You are reviewing a new vendor agreement before signing. Instead of reading then typing, do both at once. As you read Section 7, hold and speak: 'Indemnification is mutual but capped at twelve months of fees for vendor, unlimited for IP infringement. Carveouts for gross negligence and willful misconduct. Insurance requirements: two million general liability, five million cyber.' Summary builds as you review. Sixty-page contract summarized in the time it takes to read it once.

Maintaining amendment documentation without extra effort

The third amendment to the software license just arrived. Hold and dictate while reviewing: 'Amendment 3 effective January 1, 2026. Adds 500 additional seats at $45 per seat per month. Extends term through December 2027. Supersedes pricing in Amendment 2. Support hours remain unchanged from original agreement.' Amendment documented in your tracking system before you even finish reading the signature page.

Updating renewal tracking notes across your portfolio

You need to update status notes for all Q1 renewals before the weekly review meeting. Instead of typing fifty updates, speak through your portfolio: 'CloudData renewal due February 15. Recommend 12-month extension at current rates. Performance satisfactory. No escalations in the past year.' Next contract: 'TechServ renewal due March 1. Incumbent wants 12% increase. Have competitive bids from two alternatives at 8% below current rates. Recommend rebid.' Twenty contracts updated in fifteen minutes instead of two hours.

Capturing stakeholder requirements after intake meetings

The business team just finished explaining their needs for a new vendor. Hold and speak: 'Procurement request from Marketing. Need creative agency services. Budget approximately 200K annually. Key requirements: experience in B2B tech, ability to support brand refresh, dedicated account team. Timeline is contract in place by March 1 for Q2 campaign start. Stakeholders are Sarah Chen and Mike Rodriguez.' Requirements documented before you leave the conference room.

Documenting compliance observations during audits

You are reviewing vendor compliance with contract terms. As you identify issues, dictate: 'Audit finding: vendor invoiced for 15 training sessions but records show only 12 delivered. Discrepancy equals $4,500 at contracted rate. Supporting documentation requested via email today. Response deadline is Friday per Section 8.3 audit rights.' Finding documented in your compliance log instantly. Continue the audit without stopping to type.
