1. Executive Summary
SplitRight helps private-equity sponsors, portfolio companies and carve-out teams capture hidden value and avoid dis-synergies locked inside shared supplier contracts. We blend experienced contract attorneys, proven divestiture playbooks and AI-driven review in Relativity Contracts with an internal layer of AI agents that automate repetitive tasks once handled by interns. The result is faster deal readiness, lower separation costs and clear visibility into spend on day one.
