Legal work is a good fit for AI because it is text-heavy, but it carries a higher risk: a confident wrong answer in a contract or a leaked document can be costly.

Tools to look at

  • [Harvey](/products/harvey): an AI platform for law firms and in-house teams covering research, drafting and document review.
  • [SpotDraft](/products/spotdraft): a contract lifecycle platform founded in India, with AI-assisted review and approval workflows.
  • E-signature and execution: Leegality and Docusign handle signing and stamping around your contracts.
  • General assistants such as ChatGPT Enterprise and Claude Enterprise can help with drafting and summaries when used with the right controls.

What to check before you start

  1. Confidentiality. Ask whether your documents are used to train models and who at the vendor can access them.
  2. Citations. Prefer tools that point to the source clause or case so lawyers can verify.
  3. Jurisdiction. Tools trained mostly on other legal systems may handle Indian law less well. Test with your own matters.
  4. Human review. Keep a lawyer responsible for every output. AI is a first draft, not advice.
  5. Integration. Check connections to your document store and contract repository.

A safe way to begin

Start with low-risk tasks: summarising long agreements, comparing versions, extracting dates and obligations. Move to drafting only after a review process is in place.
