Playbook Generator

The Playbook Generator legal app addresses one of the most common uses cases for generative AI in legal work: how to leverage prior precedent to analyze net new agreements. This app allows users to select a set of precedent documents—contracts or agreements that serve as the foundation for legal analysis—from their document repository in NetDocuments.

Once the precedent documents are selected, the app automatically generates a contract playbook based on common clusters of provisions that appear in the precedent documents. This transforms a process that used to take weeks or months and reduces it to a matter of a few clicks and minutes. The generated playbook is designed to be customizable, allowing the lawyer to adjust and refine the content based on specific legal strategies or client needs. Lawyers can set parameters for each type of document, flagging critical clauses that need special attention and providing recommendations for revisions or alternative language.

When reviewing third-party versions of the same document type, the lawyer can then apply the playbook’s rules and guidelines using the Issues List Generator legal app, as described more here. The Issues List Generator app compares the third-party document against the playbook, highlighting deviations from the precedent, flagging potential risks, and suggesting edits based on the established preferences. This helps attorneys quickly assess the document’s compliance with their standards, ensuring faster contract reviews, enhanced consistency across negotiations, and more effective risk management.

By automating these time-consuming tasks, the app allows legal teams to focus on strategic decisions rather than manual review processes.
