Lawyer: Contract Drafting and Review, Ready for Your Counsel
Contracts reviewed in minutes, with the risky clauses ranked for your lawyer.
The Lawyer is an AI contract review and drafting agent in the Ai1 platform by MyZone AI: it drafts agreements from your approved templates, red-lines contracts you receive against your standard positions, scores risk clause by clause and flags risks for your lawyer to review; it never signs anything.
We'll show you the Lawyer on your own templates and a contract you have received, or on our sample contract. Every draft goes to your lawyer before use.

Capabilities
What the Lawyer does for you
Drafts from your templates
Give it the agreement type and the other party's details. It fills your approved template with your legal name and governing law, and flags every blank a person needs to complete.
Red-lines contracts you receive
Paste in a contract someone sent you. It compares each clause with your standard positions and flags what is missing, unusual or one-sided.
Scores risk clause by clause
Every review comes with a plain risk score and a short, ranked list of the clauses that matter most, such as indemnity, liability, intellectual property and data.
Picks the right template
Not sure which agreement fits the situation? It identifies the right type and explains the differences.
Keeps your templates current
On a regular cycle it researches current practice and proposes updates to your templates, for your approval and your lawyer's sign-off.
Drafts NDAs from a few answers
Tell it who the agreement is with and whether it should be mutual or one-way. It drafts the NDA from your approved template or a standard structure and flags any unusual terms, for your review before signing.
Sends agreements for e-signature
Prepares your agreement in your own DocuSign account as an unsent draft. It sends only after you confirm the exact draft and recipients, then tracks who has signed and saves the signed copy for you.
How the Lawyer differs from a contract template library
A template library hands you a blank agreement and leaves the rest to you. The Lawyer fills your own approved templates with your legal name and governing law, flags every blank a person must complete, red-lines contracts you receive against your standard positions and ranks the risky clauses. It flags risks for your lawyer to review, never signs anything, and MyZone is not a law firm.
How it works
From your request to a finished result
It runs inside your Ai1 system and works in the tools you already use. You ask, it works, it reports, and it stops for your OK where it matters.

Example contract review
Example: supplier contract review
Example with a fictional company. Names, people and figures are invented to show the agent's output. Not legal advice: MyZone is not a law firm. Have a licensed lawyer review any real contract before you sign it.
What it was asked: Red-line the supplier's cloud software agreement before we sign a three-year deal, and tell us what to push back on.
Example report
Review summary: overall risk, the deal at a glance, and the three fixes to make before signingRisk register: nine issues ranked by score, with who should handle eachSuggested redlines: the supplier's wording struck out and the proposed wording addedNegotiation plan: what to ask for, where to settle and when to walk away
What it found: 3 findings, with the numbers
The supplier's liability is capped at three months of fees, about CA$18,525, even if it leaks your clients' drawings; ask for 12 months, and three times annual fees for data breaches.
The contract lets the supplier train its AI on your clients' drawings and site photos, forever and irrevocably; limit its licence to running the service, with AI training only if you opt in.
Leaving is hard: your records are deleted 15 days after the contract ends and exports cost extra in the supplier's own format; ask for 90 days and free exports in open formats.
A fictional supplier agreement (17 sections, an order form and a service-level schedule) was written from scratch, then reviewed clause by clause from the customer's side; each issue was scored for likelihood and impact, with a suggested redline and a fallback position. Real supplier security practices, insurance and the customer's own client contracts were not checked; the report flags risks for a licensed lawyer to review. Run date: .

Common questions
Frequently asked questions about the Lawyer
What is AI contract review?
AI contract review is software that reads a contract clause by clause and flags what is missing, unusual or one-sided. The Lawyer in Ai1 by MyZone AI compares each clause with your standard positions, gives a plain risk score, ranks the issues that matter most and flags them for your lawyer to review.
It does not replace your lawyer. It does the first pass: drafting from your templates, red-lining incoming contracts and ranking the risks. Your lawyer reviews a focused issue list and makes the final call.
How does contract risk scoring work?
The Lawyer reads each clause against your standard positions and pulls out the ones that carry real exposure, such as indemnity, liability, intellectual property and data. You get a plain risk score and a short, ranked list, so your lawyer's review starts where the exposure is.
The contract you share is stored on your own Ai1 server and is sent only to the AI model provider to process your request, not through us. We access your data only to run and support your system, as your agreement sets out, and your data is not used to train AI models.
What does it mean to red-line a contract?
Red-lining marks up a contract with proposed changes to the other party's wording. The Lawyer red-lines contracts you receive against your standard positions and gives you a ranked list of what to push back on before you sign. Your lawyer reviews the marked-up draft and keeps the final say.
It never signs or sends a contract for you. You get a clean draft or a ranked issue list, and every output is marked as needing a lawyer's review.
What does the Lawyer need to get started, and does it use our templates?
Your organisation's legal name, the governing law your agreements use and, if you have them, where your approved templates live and who reviews drafts before use.
It drafts from your approved templates using your legal name and governing law, and flags anything a person needs to fill in. It researches current practice on a regular cycle and proposes template updates; nothing changes until you approve and your lawyer signs off.
