The Grounding Test
Five questions that separate what supports a decision from what is still assumption. The result is the Advancement Map.
The five questions.
Each question separates a different layer of the same document. Together they form the criteria the company uses to decide.
What is fact?
Objective information in the document and context.
What is assumption?
Hypotheses and readings still to be confirmed.
What is missing?
Gaps, ambiguities and absent information.
What could this create?
Risks, obligations and responsibilities at stake.
Can this move forward?
Approve, revise, block or escalate.
What goes in.
Contracts
Services, supply, partnership, licensing, NDAs.
Proposals
Commercial, technical, tender responses and letters of intent.
Amendments
Changes to scope, term, price, warranty and liability.
Policies and clauses
Internal documents and specific excerpts for assessment.
What comes out.
Facts and assumptions separated
What the document states, what the team is assuming and what remains unconfirmed.
Attention points with source
Each point raised refers back to the clause or excerpt that produced it.
Impact by team
Who needs to assess: legal, sales, operations, compliance or leadership.
Suggested path and next steps
Approve, revise, block or escalate, with what must happen first.
Isolated analysis and shared criteria.
Four possible paths.
Approve
There is sufficient basis to move forward.
Revise
Conditions or definitions still require attention.
Block
A material issue prevents responsible progress.
Escalate
The matter requires specialized judgment or higher authority.
Where this fits your flow.
Jurisdify does not replace your repository, e-signature or contract management. It works in the moment before: when someone must decide whether it moves forward.
Before legal review
The Test organizes material so review starts with what matters.
Before negotiation
Sales enters knowing what is a limit and what is room to move.
Before signature
The decision to move forward gains recorded criteria.
Before execution
Operations receives obligations and owners already identified.
Stronger intelligence where it matters. Efficiency where it does not.
Using the most expensive model for every task is like putting a senior partner on all routine work. Jurisdify applies computing capacity in proportion to the volume, complexity and risk of each task.

Saying this plainly is part of the product. The limits are set out in the agreement and on the governance page.
No legal opinions
The analysis supports the specialist; it does not replace one.
No approval or signature
Authority stays with the people the company defines.
No exhaustiveness guarantee
It surfaces what it finds and shows what remains open.
No autonomous decisions
Every output is a routing for human assessment.
