Contract review and drafting

Spellbook: what to evaluate

Will the redlines follow your playbook and reduce the work needed to finish a contract?

For a commercial-contract team, the useful question is whether suggested changes survive qualified review in the document editor the team already uses. Treat draft quality, missed issues and the effort to produce an approved document as separate measures.

What the vendor says

  • Spellbook says it redlines contracts against the user's standards and flags terms for attention. Spellbook: review features

  • The vendor offers drafting from scratch or preferred precedents, and advertises review and drafting within Word and Google Docs. Spellbook: drafting and document editors

  • Spellbook says its LLM providers do not train on or retain customer data. This homepage assertion does not establish the contractual terms or every processing path. Spellbook: privacy statement

Your evaluation checklist

Use the following as a proposed test, not a report of tests ClickoAI has run.

  1. Choose authorised, de-identified contracts and have a qualified reviewer record the expected issues before seeing the tool's suggestions. Include both ordinary clauses and an exception the playbook does not cover.

  2. Compare omissions, incorrect findings and unnecessary changes. Check the represented side, defined terms and cross-references, not just whether a redline sounds plausible.

  3. Accept and reject changes in your required editor, then export the document. Confirm that the reviewer can trace each suggestion and that the finished file preserves the intended text.

  4. Measure total review and correction time through to approval. Agree a stop condition for serious omissions before the trial, rather than deciding what counts as success afterwards.

  5. Obtain written terms covering storage and inference locations, subprocessors, training restrictions, deletion and incident notification before using confidential material.
