Overview —

A first-pass review layer for contracts across three languages

We designed a contract review copilot to support legal teams working across German, English, and Italian documents. The system reads incoming contracts, identifies key clauses, highlights potential risks, and organises findings before a senior reviewer opens the file.

Instead of replacing legal judgment, the copilot acts as a first-pass review layer. It helps the team move faster by surfacing important terms, unusual wording, missing clauses, and review priorities early in the process.

Workflow —

Key areas automated

  • Multilingual contract reading — German, English, Italian
  • Clause identification and extraction
  • Risk tagging and priority scoring
  • Summary generation for legal review
  • Human approval before final decisions
Outcome —

11× review throughput

A slower manual review process was supported with a multilingual AI copilot that prepares contract risks and key clauses before partner-level review. The team processed eleven times more contracts in the same period without compromising review quality or removing human judgment from the process.
