Machine-Readable Contracts are legal agreements formulated in a structured, standardized data format that allows computer systems to interpret, process, and execute their terms automatically. Often implemented as smart contracts on blockchain networks, they facilitate automated performance of contractual obligations without human intervention. This enhances efficiency and reduces potential for disputes. They bridge legal text with computational logic.
Context
The application of machine-readable contracts is expanding beyond basic smart contract execution to include complex legal agreements in finance, supply chain, and intellectual property. Standardization efforts are key to their broader adoption and interoperability across different platforms. This development promises to streamline legal and business processes.
