A practical walkthrough of AI contract review inside Microsoft Word: how an in-house lawyer uses Gavel Exec to run a playbook, investigate clauses, apply tracked-change redlines, and send the business a clear summary.

What a contract playbook is, what goes in one, a worked example for a liability cap, and how to build a contract review playbook your team will use.

To get the most value out of Gavel Exec, your Playbooks should work like clear, issue-specific checklists for the AI, just like training a junior associate. The best Playbooks break down each legal concern into focused Rules, with detailed guidance in the Rule Description to help the AI know what to look for, where to look, and how to evaluate it. This guide shows you how to name and structure each Rule, write strong descriptions, and use examples to get precise, reliable results, clause by clause.

Tools like Gavel Exec turn institutional knowledge into repeatable workflows, freeing up legal teams for strategic work and making negotiation faster, more consistent, and data-driven.
