First drafts of your standard agreement, ready for your lawyer to review.

## At a glance

- **Drafts from:** Your own agreement template and the instructions for each matter
- **Open points:** Each missing or uncertain point listed against its clause, never invented
- **Review notes:** Your senior lawyer's tracked changes recorded with their reasons, clause by clause
- **Rules:** Repeated changes become suggested rules, used only after your firm approves them
- **Trend:** Changes per draft tracked, so you can see whether reviews get lighter
- **The final text:** Owned by a qualified lawyer at your firm; nothing it writes is legal advice

## What the Contract Drafter does

- **Drafts from your template:** Fills your agreement template from the structured instructions for each matter.
- **Lists open points:** Each unfilled or uncertain point is listed against its clause so the reviewer sees it straight away.
- **Captures review changes:** Reads your senior lawyer's tracked changes and records what changed and why, clause by clause.
- **Suggests rules:** Changes that keep recurring become suggested rules waiting for your decision; one-off edits are not learned.
- **Applies only approved rules:** Later drafts use the rules your firm approved and nothing else.
- **Tracks changes per draft:** Shows how many edits each draft needed and how that moves over time.
- **Marks each draft for review:** Each draft carries a notice that it is not legal advice and needs a lawyer's review.

## How the Contract Drafter differs from copying the last contract

Copying the last contract and editing it by hand can carry old names, dates and terms into the new one and hides what is missing. The Contract Drafter fills your own template from the matter instructions, lists every open point instead of guessing, and learns only from rules your firm approves after review. Nothing it writes is legal advice: a qualified lawyer at your firm reviews each draft and owns the final text.

How this differs from the Lawyer (https://myzone.ai/pages/agents/ai-legal-agent): To have a contract reviewed and explained, use the Lawyer; the Contract Drafter writes first drafts of your standard agreement from your template for a lawyer to review.

## How it works

1. **Set up your agreement** (When you first set up): Your firm provides the template and the instructions the agreement needs for each matter.
2. **First draft** (For each new matter): It fills the template, applies your approved rules and lists the open points.
3. **Lawyer review** (you approve) (Before any draft is used): A named lawyer at your firm reviews and edits the draft and owns the final text.
4. **Learn from the edits** (After each review): It records the changes and their reasons and suggests rules from the ones that repeat.
5. **You rule on suggestions** (Before any rule is used): Suggested rules wait for your firm to accept or reject them before they are used.

## When to use it

- **You draft the same agreement every week:** Lawyers start from a complete draft instead of copying the last one and editing it by hand.
- **Senior review keeps fixing the same clause:** The repeated change is captured with its reason and can become a rule once you approve it.
- **Matter instructions are incomplete:** The draft lists what is missing so nobody has to hunt for it in the text.
- **You want to know if drafts are improving:** The changes-per-draft trend shows whether review edits are falling.

## What you get

- A first draft of your standard agreement for each matter
- An open-points list with each draft
- A record of review changes and their reasons
- Suggested rules for your decision
- A changes-per-draft trend

## Example: first draft of a standard agreement with review notes

Example with a fictional company. Names, people and figures are invented to show the agent's output. Any resemblance to a real company or person is unintended.

What it was asked: Draft our standard website build agreement for the new client from our own terms, flag anything you could not fill, and show what you changed after our lawyer's last review.

This is an illustrative example of the first draft and review notes Contract Drafter is being built to produce: the draft summary, its open points, the changes captured from the lawyer's last review and the rulebook. It was written by hand from the agent's design for an invented company with invented clients, clauses and figures; it is not legal advice, and no real contract, lawyer or person was involved. Nothing was sent, signed, posted, paid or changed. Run date: 22 October 2026.

### What it found

- 31 of the 34 clauses in the website build agreement were filled from the agency's own terms and project brief, with 7 approved rules applied; it now goes to the lawyer.
- 3 open points were left as marked gaps rather than guesses: the deposit share, the target launch date and whether the client receives design source files.
- The lawyer's last review made 14 changes, down from 23 on the first draft; 2 became approved rules, 3 are candidates and 1 one-off was not learned.

## Guardrails

- Your Ai1 team will tell you when the Contract Drafter is ready for your account.
- Nothing it writes is legal advice. A qualified lawyer at your firm reviews each draft and owns the final content before it is used.
- It never sends, signs, files or shares a contract; a person does that outside the agent.
- Missing facts are listed as open points, never invented.
- Suggested rules are used only after your firm approves them.

## Frequently asked questions

### What should a first contract draft flag for the reviewing lawyer?

A good first draft lists each point it could not fill from the instructions, such as a missing date, party detail or unusual term, rather than quietly guessing. That list lets the reviewer spend time on the decisions that matter. The Contract Drafter attaches an open-points list to each draft for that reason.

### How can contract drafts improve from a lawyer's review notes?

By recording each change the reviewer makes and why, then turning changes that keep recurring into rules the firm approves. The Contract Drafter captures your senior lawyer's tracked changes clause by clause, suggests rules from the repeats, leaves one-off edits alone and uses a rule only after your firm accepts it.

### How do you know if contract first drafts are getting better?

Track how many changes the reviewing lawyer makes to each draft and watch the trend. The Contract Drafter records the changes per draft, so you can see whether review edits are falling, while a qualified lawyer still reviews every draft before it is used.

### What does an AI contract drafter do?

It produces a first version of an agreement from a template and the facts of a matter, for a lawyer to review. The Contract Drafter does this for a standard agreement your firm uses, lists open points and learns from your senior lawyer's changes.

### Is a draft from the Contract Drafter legal advice?

No. The Contract Drafter writes drafts for a qualified lawyer to review, and a named lawyer at your firm owns the final content of each draft before it is used.

### Which contracts can it draft?

The standard agreement type chosen with your firm at setup, drafted from your own template. Other agreement types and contracts from the other side go to a lawyer.

### How does it learn from our reviews?

It compares the draft with your senior lawyer's tracked changes, records each change and its reason, and suggests a rule when the same change keeps coming back. A rule is used only after your firm approves it.

### Is the Contract Drafter available now?

Not yet. Your Ai1 team will tell you when the Contract Drafter is ready for your account. You can talk to us today about the standard agreements your firm drafts most often.
