01Where does AI help a legal team?

AI helps legal teams by automating the high-volume, low-judgment work: classifying incoming contracts, extracting key clauses and dates, comparing against a playbook of standard positions, and flagging deviations for review. The lawyer keeps the judgment; the AI removes the grind.

02Extract and compare against a playbook

Define your standard positions (acceptable liability caps, payment terms, IP clauses). The system extracts the actual terms from each contract and flags where they deviate — turning a four-hour review into a focused look at the exceptions.

  1. 1

    Classify the document

    NDA, MSA, SOW — route to the right playbook.

  2. 2

    Extract key terms

    Parties, dates, liability, termination, IP — grounded in the text.

  3. 3

    Compare to playbook

    Flag deviations from standard positions by severity.

  4. 4

    Lawyer reviews exceptions

    Human judgment on the flagged items only.

03Grounding and privilege are non-negotiable

Every extracted term must cite its location in the document, and confidential data must stay within controlled boundaries. In legal, an unsourced or leaked answer is a liability, not a convenience.

04Test yourself

Legal AI keeps one thing firmly human.
