Draft a SaaS Indemnification Clause in the Style of Your Own Example Clauses
Reads the example clauses you paste, draws out their structure, defined-term habits and tone, and drafts a SaaS indemnification clause in that style. Every substantive term comes from your instructions, never from the examples.
The Prompt
Variables (7)
| Variable | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| {{client_name}} | Client Name | Harbor Analytics, Inc. |
| {{client_role}} | Client Role | vendor |
| {{instructions}} | Indemnity Instructions | Vendor indemnifies customer against third-party claims that the Service infringes a copyright or patent. Include notice and control of defense. No exclusions requested. |
| {{deal_terms}} | Deal Terms and Defined Terms | Defined terms in the agreement: 'Vendor', 'Customer', 'Service', 'Claim'. Governing law: not yet agreed. |
| {{authority}} | Pasted Governing Text | None pasted. |
| {{notes}} | Attorney Notes | Partner says courts always enforce IP indemnities as written. Do not mention the earlier dispute with this customer. |
| {{examples}} | Example Clauses | Limitation of Liability. In no event shall either Party's aggregate liability exceed the total fees paid by Client during the twelve (12) month period preceding the event. |
Expected Output
Part 1, attorney-only: conflicts, input register, style notes from the examples, arithmetic and count check, cleared and held-back lists, term slots, defined-terms audit, authority questions, declined statements, missing information, the Part 2 check. Part 2: the clause. Ends with a Verification list.
Usage Notes
Use it when you want a new clause to read like your firm's existing clauses. Paste one to three example clauses and state the indemnity's parties, covered claims and any procedure you want. Failure mode to watch: the example's cap, period or exclusions reappearing in the new clause; the prompt treats the examples as style only, so check that no figure came from them. A requested element you gave no content for comes back as a blank line. Read the document part line by line before it leaves the office. Not legal advice. The attorney remains responsible for verifying every fact, figure and authority before use.
