Contract fields

Contracts, pulled apart into their terms.

Find the two parties, the start and end, the length, the value, the payment terms, which law applies and whether it is signed. Each term shows the place on the page it came from.

Your workspace

This is where you work. See it before you sign up.

The same workspace you get when you sign up, opened on the screen closest to this kind of document. Pick a tab to see the rest.

The first step of setting up a list: nine ready lists, such as invoice, receipt, purchase order, contract and bank statement, each with its number of fields.

Pick the ready list nearest your document, such as an invoice, a receipt or a bank statement, or start with a blank one.

Then name each value you want, say what kind it is, and change any field you like.

Read your own files after you sign up: the free plan reads 30 pages a month.

Your own fields

Start from this one. Make it yours.

Reword a field, add one, remove one, or start blank. Describe each field in a sentence, give a typical value, and save the field list. Use it for every file after that.

No training needed

Describe a field as you would to a colleague.

There is nothing to train and no files to label. For each field, write its name, say in a sentence what to look for, and give a typical value. If a value comes back empty, reword the sentence and read the file again.

01

Name it

A short name you would use in a spreadsheet column.

02

Say what to look for

One sentence, written as you would explain it to a new colleague.

03

Give a typical value

It shows Takarda the shape of the answer: an amount, a date, a name.

Any format

Photos, scans, PDFs, Word and text.

Upload what you have. Takarda prepares each file before it reads it, so a crooked photo and a clean PDF end up in the same columns.

  • PDF
  • Scans
  • Phone photos
  • Images
  • Word files
  • Text files

A file can have up to 100 pages and be up to 20 MB. Upload up to 50 files at a time.

Security

Your documents stay yours.

  • Kept in Africa, read in Europe

    Stored in Africa (Johannesburg). Takarda AI reads each page in the European Union.

  • Never used for training

    Takarda does not use your documents to train any model.

  • Encrypted

    Files travel over an encrypted connection and are stored encrypted.

  • Every change logged

    Each correction and confirmation is logged with who made it. The original reading stays beside it.

Questions

Plain answers to plain questions.

Can I rely on it to explain a clause?

No. It copies what is printed and shows where. It gives no legal advice. What a clause means, and whether to sign, is for you and your lawyer.

Can it find a term that sits deep in the contract?

Yes. Describe the term in plain words, as you would to a colleague, and Takarda looks for it across the pages. If it is not there, the value reads Not on the page.

Can I read only some pages?

Yes. Set the first and last page to read when you make the field list, for a contract with long schedules you do not need.

Which files can I upload?

PDFs, JPG, PNG and HEIC pictures, Word (.docx) files and plain text (.txt) files. A file can have up to 100 pages and be up to 20 MB, and you can upload up to 50 files at once. A file Takarda cannot open is refused with a plain note on what to send instead.

What if a value is not on the page?

It reads Not on the page and stays empty. Takarda does not guess to fill a gap. A value that is found points to a box on the page. Some wrong readings can still get through, which is why you look at each file and confirm it before you download.

What does it cost?

The Free plan reads 30 pages a month. Paid plans start at ₦30,000 a month for 250 pages, in naira, month to month. You pay for the pages Takarda reads, not for the people on your team.
