AI contract drafting In Microsoft Word: a game-changer for speed and accuracy

Drafting contracts usually means starting with an old template and then spending your morning updating fields, deleting names, and double-checking that nothing got missed. With frequent documents like partnership agreements, employment or rental contracts, you could be repeating this process dozens of times a week.

Today, we’re announcing new updates to our Drafting Agent, delivering a step change in the speed and accuracy of contract creation, all within the tool legal teams know best: Microsoft Word.

Turn any contract into a smart, reusable template in seconds

Users can open a signed or standard agreement in Word and convert it into a structured template in minutes. LEGALFLY automatically detects variable fields, such as party names, dates and jurisdictions. Users can then edit, rename or add to these variables without breaking formatting.

This enables teams to turn their best documents into reliable starting points without recreating them. The result is less duplication, more consistency and faster document creation across departments.

No more copy-pasting contract fields

Teams often receive contract details in a non-structured format. Information is shared via forms, email or informal notes. With LEGALFLY, you can drag and drop any note, email or document, and information will be extracted and entered into the contract.

This is not just about speed. Fields are less likely to be missed, avoiding embarrassing mistakes at best and breaches of confidentiality at worst.

Apply clause logic without technical knowledge

Many legal templates become bloated because they try to cover every possible scenario. LEGALFLY solves this with clause-level logic. Users can show or hide clauses based on deal-specific toggles such as "Governing law is France" or "Amount exceeds 10000."

A single toggle can control multiple clauses. Users can also add one additional condition to fine-tune when a clause appears. During drafting, hidden clauses remain faintly visible with a "Hidden" label to maintain clarity. They are automatically removed when the final version is generated.

All of this happens within Microsoft Word. There is no need to write rules or use external platforms.

The flexibility of clause logic means LEGALFLY’s Drafting Agent can be adapted to suit all of your drafting workflows, no matter how complex your internal processes are.

Support more teams with less effort

LEGALFLY’s Drafting Agent makes it possible for commercial and operational teams to self-serve routine agreements without losing legal oversight. Legal teams define the logic, guardrails and escalation triggers. Business users follow structured workflows that minimise risk and reduce review cycles.

Here are a few ways this could be used:

• Procurement generating supplier terms that meet internal thresholds
• HR sending employment offers with current benefits language
• Marketing adapting partnership templates for new campaigns

LEGALFLY keeps every user on track by embedding legal context directly into the drafting process.

Anonymisation comes first

LEGALFLY never sends sensitive data to third-party AI providers. Every document is anonymised before processing. Personal names, financial figures and confidential details are stripped in milliseconds.

This anonymisation model was developed by us in-house and can be deployed on the client’s own infrastructure. For regulated organisations, this eliminates data security concerns that often block AI adoption.

Draft faster, with more control

LEGALFLY is built to support real legal teams doing real work. With the new template functionality, users can:

• Turn existing documents into templates in seconds
• Autofill fields by attaching documents or emails
• Create logic-based clause libraries without coding
• Enable business teams to draft safely
• Maintain full control over formatting, data and review

Everything happens inside Microsoft Word.
