ReviewPro: Redline on Redlines

Redline on Redlines lets you run ReviewPro's AI Redline Engine on contracts that already contain tracked changes from a prior reviewer

Written by Sara Doutt

Overview

Redline on Redlines lets you run ReviewPro's AI Redline Engine on contracts that already contain tracked changes from a prior reviewer. ReviewPro layers its AI suggestions on top of the existing markup — your colleagues' work, prior negotiation history, and audit trail are all preserved.

You no longer need to "Accept All" tracked changes before running the AI.

When to Use This

This feature is for 3rd-party paper review — you've received a contract drafted by a counterparty, it's already been marked up by someone on your team (or has gone through one or more prior negotiation rounds), and you want the AI to apply your playbook without erasing that prior work.

Common scenarios:

  • A colleague did a first-pass review and you want the AI to do a second pass.

  • The contract has been through one round of negotiation with the counterparty, and you're preparing your next turn.

  • Multiple internal reviewers have contributed markup over time.

This feature is not intended for 1st-party paper review (where you're reviewing a counterparty's redlines against your own template).

How to Use It

Redline as you normally would. If your document contains tracked changes, ReviewPro detects them automatically and processes the document accordingly. There's no toggle, no setting, no extra step.

Upload the document and run the AI Redline Engine the same way you always have.

How ReviewPro Reads Existing Tracked Changes

ReviewPro treats prior tracked changes the way an experienced human reviewer would:

Existing markup

How the AI treats it

Inserted text

Read as the new baseline — part of the current document

Deleted text

Ignored — treated as if it no longer exists

The AI may then add its own insertions and deletions on top of this baseline. It can also further edit within an existing insertion (for example, refining wording a colleague added). It will not modify within an existing deletion — deleted text is final.

Reading the Results

Your output is a single document containing both the original tracked changes and the AI's tracked changes, clearly separated.

  • Human edits appear with the original author's tag (your colleague's name, the counterparty, etc.).

  • AI edits appear tagged separately as your edits.

Word displays each as distinct revision balloons, so at any point you can see exactly who changed what. You can accept, reject, or further edit any change — human or AI — independently.

Scope

  • Multi-round and multi-author documents are fully supported. No matter how many reviewers or rounds of markup the document has been through, prior tracked changes are preserved.

  • No risk of data loss. ReviewPro only modifies tracked changes that it created itself. Pre-existing tracked changes are never altered or removed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to turn this on? No. It works automatically whenever a document contains tracked changes.

Will the AI overwrite my colleague's edits? No. Pre-existing tracked changes are never modified or removed. The AI only adds its own changes on top.

Does this work for 1st-party paper review? Not currently. This feature is designed for reviewing a counterparty's contract that already has internal markup.
