Drafter

The drafter assembles from your clauses, guided by your playbooks. What it produces is only as good as what you have put into it.

How it works

Choose the document type

What you are drafting and for which side.

Give the parameters

Parties, term, value, governing law, and whatever else the playbook asks for.

It assembles from your clauses

Selecting the variants your playbook says apply.

You review and edit

Every time. The draft is a starting point that has removed the typing, not the judgement.

Why the library matters more than the drafter

A drafter with a well-maintained clause library produces a document that reflects your firm's actual positions, in your firm's language, with the fallback positions marked. A drafter with an empty library produces generic contract text of the sort that is freely available and that nobody should sign.

So the work is in the library, not in the drafter. That is worth knowing before evaluating the module on a first use — the first draft from an empty library is not representative of anything.

A draft can go straight to signature

A finished draft can be sent to Sign as an envelope, which keeps the drafting, the sending and the execution record in one place.

What this does not do

No redlining against a counterparty draft

The drafter assembles; it does not mark up somebody else's document.

No negotiation tracking

There is no record of positions conceded across a negotiation.

No document comparison

Comparing two versions is not built into the drafter.

No jurisdiction-aware validation

It will assemble a clause that does not work in a given jurisdiction if your library contains one.

Questions

Can it draft in another language?

It assembles your clauses. If they are in one language, so is the output.

Can two people work on a draft?

Drafts are not co-edited in real time.

Does it learn from our edits?

No. Improve the library.
