Overview

What it is.

Work through a redline session, accept the suggestions you want, and export a .docx. When the contract was uploaded as a Word file, the export writes real Word revisions — w:ins and w:del markup with an author and a date — so it opens in Word's own tracked-changes review pane.

When the source was a PDF or a scan there is no original Word document to mark up, so the export renders the same changes as styled text instead: deletions struck through, insertions in green. Same content, different mechanism, and worth knowing which one you will get before you send it out.

How it works

Three steps.
End to end.

01
1. Accept the fixes

Review the session's suggestions and accept the ones you want applied.

02
2. Generate the redline

Vio writes the accepted changes into a .docx — Word revisions from a .docx source, styled text from a PDF or scan source.

03
3. Send or compare

Share via a vault link or download. When a revised version comes back, run a clause-level comparison against the version you sent.

  • ✓Edit a pending suggestion; the model's original wording is kept beside yours
  • ✓An escalated suggestion — outside your approved range or high exposure — needs an explicit confirmation to accept
  • ✓Suggestions show your playbook position where one exists, and comment threads per suggestion
FAQ

Quick answers.

Will it preserve the original Word formatting?

From a .docx source the redline is written into the original document's XML, so the surrounding formatting is the document's own. From a PDF or scan there is no original Word file, so the export is a newly generated document and the counterparty's layout is not reproduced.

Can I redline a whole folder in one run?

No. A redline session runs against one contract. Bulk upload analyses many contracts at once, but it does not generate redlines.
