This Legal AI Tool Lets You Build Agents to Handle Lawyer Work (I Tried it Myself)
10:28Hosted by Anna Guo
In-house legal teams are getting hit from every direction: Slack pings, emails, last-minute deal questions, and "can we deviate?" requests that somehow become urgent five minutes before signing.
In this video, I go under the hood of Wordsmith, a legal enablement platform, to see what it actually does in real in-house work.
In this video
- How a lawyer can get started in Wordsmith (setup, navigation, where the workflows live)
- The core functions that felt meaningfully different from using a general-purpose model in a browser tab
- Who I'd recommend Wordsmith for (and who I wouldn't) based on the kind of team and workload you actually have
