The Deal That Almost Slipped: How AI Spotted Red Flags Before a Costly Licensing Agreement
Licensing at the Edge: How One Pharma Firm Dodged $30M in Liabilities Using AI | Case Study
With time ticking and a multi-million-dollar licensing deal on the line, a pharmaceutical firm faced a critical challenge—rapidly reviewing thousands of pages of clinical, technical, and regulatory data tied to a late-stage therapeutic asset. A wrong move could cost not only money, but market credibility.
Rather than scrambling through dense PDFs, the due diligence team turned to aiMDC, tasking it with analysing over 10 lengthy documents (each 500+ pages). The AI didn’t just summarise; it flagged discrepancies between trial outcomes and regulatory claims, and highlighted gaps in post-market risk disclosures.
Within 72 hours, red flags were escalated to leadership, helping them renegotiate terms and ultimately avoid a deal that could have triggered over $30M in liabilities. What could’ve taken three weeks took three days—without sacrificing accuracy.
