Ask Vallor's AI what the termination conditions and notice period requirements are for any contract, without reading through the legal text yourself.

Overview
Termination clauses and notice period requirements are often buried deep in legal language. Vallor's AI chat lets you ask a plain-English question about any contract and get a direct, cited answer, without needing to read the full document yourself.
This is useful when you need to understand your exit options, figure out how much notice you need to give, or check what conditions could trigger an automatic termination.
Step 1: Open the contract
From the left sidebar, click Library or Reports and select the contract you want to review. Click on it to open the contract detail view, which shows the full document on the left and a panel on the right.
Tip: Use the search bar to find a contract by supplier name or contract title.
Step 2: Open the Chat tab
In the right-hand panel, click the Chat tab. This opens an AI chat scoped to the current contract — the AI has already read the full document, so your question is answered based on the actual text.
You will see a search bar at the bottom of the panel where you can type your question.
AI tip: Vallor's AI reads the contract document and returns answers based on the actual clause text. You can ask follow-up questions in the same session.
Step 3: Ask about termination conditions
Type your question in plain English in the search bar. You do not need to use legal terminology. Here are some examples that work well:
What are the termination conditions and notice period requirements?
How much notice do we need to give to exit this contract?
Can either party terminate without cause? If so, what is the process?
What happens if the supplier fails to meet SLA requirements three times in a row?
Press Enter or click the send button to submit your question.
Tip: The more specific your question, the more focused the answer. Ask about one scenario at a time for the clearest results.
Step 4: Review the AI's answer
The AI returns a plain-English summary of the termination conditions, along with:
The notice period required (e.g. 30 days, 90 days)
The conditions that allow termination (for cause, for convenience, or both)
Any penalties or obligations triggered on exit (e.g. wind-down fees, data return requirements)
Clause references so you can read the exact legal text if needed
Note: AI answers are based on the contract text in Vallor. Always verify with your legal team before taking action based on termination terms, especially in high-value or complex contracts.
Step 5: Follow up or dig deeper
You can ask follow-up questions in the same chat to explore specific details:
What counts as a material breach under this contract?
Is there a cure period before termination takes effect?
Does the notice period change if we terminate for cause vs. convenience?
The AI keeps the context of the conversation, so you do not need to re-explain which contract you are asking about.
More example questions to try
What are the auto-renewal terms for this contract?
Is there a minimum contract term before we can terminate?
What obligations survive termination (e.g. confidentiality, IP)?
Can the supplier terminate us if we miss a payment?
What is the dispute resolution process before termination can happen?
Tips
Ask broad questions first to get an overview, then follow up on the specific parts that matter most to your situation.
Use the clause references in the AI response to pull the exact language for any legal or procurement team review.
If the AI says it cannot find a termination clause, the contract may be missing that section or it may be in an amendment — check the linked documents.
