Contracts live and breathe through timing - deadlines, waiting periods, renewal dates, and meeting schedules.
Yet, spotting every time-related phrase across long, complex documents can be tedious and risky.

That’s why DraftCheck includes three powerful tools - Duration Detector, Date Detector, and Time Detector - working together to make sure you never miss a time-sensitive clause again.

⏳ Duration Detector - Spot Every Time Period Instantly

Time-related obligations define the rhythm of a contract: how long something lasts, when it renews, and when action is due.
Duration Detector automatically highlights these time expressions so reviewers can catch every obligation in context.

🔍 What It Detects

It identifies any phrase describing a time duration, such as:

• “two consecutive days”
• “21st consecutive business day”
• “(5) consecutive calendar days”
• “fifteenth consecutive month”
• “100th consecutive fiscal quarter”

Why It Matters

• Visibility: Instantly see all time-bound clauses.
• Accuracy: Catch every renewal or waiting period.
• Efficiency: Review all durations in one place.

📅 Date Detector — Catch Every Date, Even the Odd Ones

Dates anchor obligations, renewals, and compliance milestones — but they’re often inconsistent or formatted incorrectly.
Date Detector automatically highlights every date in your contracts, no matter how it’s written.

🔍 What It Detects

It recognizes:

• Numeric formats → 23.05.2023, 2301/04485-2023
• Month–year combos → February 2022, February ‘22
• Full dates → February 3, 2023, February 3, '23
• Incorrect formats → February 32, 2023, Jan 45

📘 Examples

• 23.05.2023
• February 2022
• February 22, 2023
• February 3, '23
• 3678, February 45

Why It Matters

• Catches mistakes: Flags strange or invalid dates before signing.
• Saves review time: Collects every detected date into one list.
• Improves clarity: Keeps schedules and obligations precise.

⏰ Time Detector — Identify Every Mentioned Hour

Specific times define obligations and meetings — yet can easily be overlooked.
Time Detector finds and highlights every time reference in your document, ensuring reviewers never miss a moment.

🔍 What It Detects

Recognizes all time formats, including:

• Named times → 12:00 noon, 12:00 midnight
• am/pm times → 7am, 04:57 am, 04:57 p.m.
• 24-hour clock → 23:52
• Unusual formats → 004:57 am, 23:52pm

📘 Examples

• 12:00 noon
• 7am
• 04:57am / 04:57 a.m.
• 23:52
• 23:52pm

Why It Matters

• Consistency: Avoids errors caused by inconsistent time formatting.
• Clarity: Ensures all times are clear and comparable.
• Risk reduction: Prevents ambiguity in time-critical obligations.
