Techniques are provided for improving computers as tools for assisting in negotiations. Specifically, techniques are provided for using a trained machine learning system to predict the likelihood that a party to a negotiation intends to comply with terms that are under consideration. In some negotiations, each party of a negotiation may use the techniques described herein to determine terms to offer the other party. In such situations, both parties may be both terms-receiving parties and terms-offering parties. By using a trained machine learning system to predict the intent of a party, the possibility of human bias significantly reduced, allowing proposed terms to be based more on objective facts and predictive indicators rather than the prejudices of the agents that have been delegated the responsibility of proposing terms.
