The digital transformation has created a scenario where commercial transactions develop instantly, utilizing digital intermediaries. Smart contracts emerge as a technological response to this new reality, which often presupposes cross-border solutions. Promising to offer a fast, low-cost commercial transaction, they use common language, the code, to execute contractual relationships through self-executing clauses. These contract models have taken on a prominent role since the crisis faced by the Judiciary due to the overload of legal proceedings and have come to be seen as a tool for desjudicialization. This paper argues, however, that the use of intelligent tools should be approached with caution, given the numerous problems that may arise. It should not be overlooked that this is a new field to be explored, where the results generated by intelligent devices are not yet accurate. This could have an adverse effect, i.e., further intensify the demand for judicial review, especially in the event of programming errors or consent defects. The methodology to be employed is based on bibliographic research and theoretical analysis.
