Mapped tools

Start with workflow fit. Use tools only after the inputs, review point, and success metric are clear.

When to use this

Use this when contract review would directly improve contract bottlenecks, manual clause review, and missed obligations.

It is a good pilot candidate when the work happens often, has a clear owner, and can be tested with recent real examples.

Expected impact

Measure the pilot with review turnaround, issues caught, and attorney review time.

The expected impact should be visible in faster cycle time, fewer manual corrections, or more consistent work quality.

Risk check

Treat this as a controlled pilot with strict scope, approved inputs, and clear escalation rules.

Avoid sensitive data early, and require human approval before outputs affect customers, employees, finances, or compliance decisions.
