Legal playbook review

Compare incoming terms with an approved playbook and draft cited redlines for lawyer review.

What this workflow does

Compare incoming terms with an approved playbook and draft cited redlines for lawyer review. It produces a source-linked draft, validates it against policy, and keeps publication or system updates behind an explicit approval.

What you gain

Lawyer-approved redline package

What the AI agent changes

How this worked before

Templates could merge known fields, but they could not understand source documents or adapt the draft to exceptions.

What the AI agent changes

The agent reads source material, drafts the right version for the case, cites evidence, and leaves the final send or write to a person.

Agent trigger

A third-party agreement enters legal intake.

Inputs

  • Process context: agreement, clause library, fallback positions, and matter context
  • Approved policies, ownership, and exception rules

Agent flow

  1. 1

    Assemble the current source material, template, and policy version.

  2. 2

    Draft only claims that can be linked to allowed evidence.

  3. 3

    Prepare playbook-aligned redlines and escalated deviations and mark every unresolved exception.

  4. 4

    Publish or write back only the approved version.

Human decisions

After step 3

The accountable process owner approves playbook-aligned redlines and escalated deviations.

Outcome

  • Lawyer-approved redline package
  • Evidence, exceptions, and audit trail

Guardrails

  • Never publish, send, or post without the named approval.
  • Keep templates, policies, and source timestamps visible to the reviewer.

Risks and mitigations

Unsupported claims can enter a customer-facing or regulated record.

Attach evidence to material claims and block approval when citations are missing.
