Redline is a document comparison that shows proposed edits to a draft agreement, typically by tracking insertions and deletions to highlight changes between versions. In deal negotiations, the Redline is the primary way parties exchange contractual changes efficiently, and reviewing a Redline carefully is critical to avoid inadvertently accepting unfavorable terms.
