The work behind the work
You can finish the documents and still miss the work you meant to do.
You need to advise on the deal.
But first, you need to find the right precedent.
You need to explain the risk.
But first, you need to work through the agreement and summarize what changed.
You need to improve how the team works.
But the next contract is already waiting.
Your judgment is not the part to hand over. The repeated work around it is where you need help.

What the capacity is for
What you do with the time matters more than the time itself.
Keep more suitable work with the people who know your business.
Identify work your team can handle with support, and work that still calls for outside expertise. Make more room to advise the business without treating every increase in demand as an automatic increase in outsourcing.
See Dropbox’s in-house experienceEvaluate for
- More suitable work handled internally.
- More attention for the business’s decisions.
- A clearer role for outside expertise.
Give clients more of the attention they came to you for.
Use recovered time for the conversation, the negotiation or the next matter. You decide whether capacity becomes growth, improved delivery economics or a more manageable day.
See Westaway’s practice experienceEvaluate for
- More time for advice and negotiation.
- Delivery economics that fit your fee model.
- A working day you can manage.
For the person relying on your advice
Your client or business stakeholder needs to understand the decision, not the software behind it. Use the time you recover to make their next step clearer.

Read the customer accountYour evaluation
See whether it makes your work easier to finish.
You do not need to evaluate every feature at once. Start with a task you recognize, examine the result and decide what is useful.
01 / Choose
Start with one recurring job.
Choose something frequent enough to matter: incoming agreements, first drafts, negotiating standards or a document set. Identify where the time goes today.
02 / Inspect
Check the whole result.
Look beyond the first answer. Inspect the drafting, the suggested changes and the information you still need to verify. Include corrections and final review.
03 / Decide
Define useful progress.
Decide what a worthwhile change looks like for your team. Less preparation, more consistent work or a task you can finally move forward.
- Your capacity
- Total time to a usable result, including human checking.
- Your control
- Whether you can understand, revise and reject the proposed work.
- Your consistency
- Whether the result reflects the standards you intended to apply.
- Your team’s adoption
- Whether the workflow is practical enough to use again.
A faster first draft only helps when it reduces the work left for you.
Make an informed decision
Get the information you need to make your own decision.
You need more than a reassuring badge before introducing software to legal work.
Security and data handling
Examine the terms behind the promise.
Review the security documentation, data-handling terms and access arrangements relevant to your deployment. Confirm how your information is processed, stored and deleted.
Professional partnership
A confirmed Canadian Bar Association partnership.
Spellbook is the CBA’s exclusive AI drafting and review partner. Eligible members are offered 20% off annual licences.
A professional partnership is not regulatory approval or a guarantee of output accuracy.
Your questions
Before your next step.
Get clear on your responsibilities, your options and what you are agreeing to.
Will you still need to review the work?
Yes. Spellbook’s output is not formal legal advice. Its terms require appropriate accuracy evaluation. You remain responsible for how you use the output and the decisions you make.
How does it fit into your existing workflow?
Draft and review through the Word Add-In. Use Associate for work across document sets. Evaluate the relevant workflow rather than assuming every offering requires the same setup.
What should you compare with a general-purpose AI tool?
Compare the complete task. Look at how you bring in documents, reuse instructions, inspect redlines and move the result into your work. Include checking and correction time.
What will it cost your team?
Spellbook publishes custom pricing based on the number of team members on the licence. Confirm your products, support and commitment in your quote.
Can you try it first?
Spellbook advertises a seven-day trial for lawyers and legal teams. Confirm the applicable terms before starting.
The published refund policy states that monthly subscriptions renew after the trial. Cancelling an annual subscription does not produce a refund for the remaining term.
What does zero data retention mean for your information?
Spellbook documents zero-retention agreements with its model providers. That is different from a promise that Spellbook itself never stores information.
Its terms separately allow input and output retention for quality assurance for up to 90 days. Other storage and retention provisions also apply. Review the agreement for your deployment before submitting sensitive material.
Read the security information. Review the contractual terms.
Can you get ACM through the same trial?
ACM is marketed through an early-access path. Confirm its availability and commercial scope separately rather than assuming it is included in a Suite trial.
Does saving time automatically mean earning more?
No. What the time is worth depends on your work, fee model and how you use the capacity. Distinguish time recovered from actual cost reductions, additional completed work and improvements in client service.
Your next step
Your next contract needs a useful starting point.
