What your firm gets back
63 hours per lawyer per month. That's 8 working days.
The numbers aren't abstract. These are what our early SA users recover - per lawyer, every month - from time they were already spending on review, drafting, and comment-wrangling.
A 40-page contract reviewed in the time it takes to read 8 pages.
From blank page to review-ready document.
8 full working days - per lawyer, every month, recovered.
Same team, two-thirds more fixed-fee matters billed - unchanged fees, recovered margin.
Everything you need to review and mark up a document
Open any document - contract, opinion, letter, filing - and work through it. Redline, comment, highlight, and proof, all inside Word.
Describe what you want changed. Native Word tracked changes appear in the document.
"Make the indemnity mutual." "Cap liability at contract value." Plain instructions become native Word tracked changes — defined terms, cross-references, and knock-on effects all updated in the same pass.
Every issue in the document, found and graded before you start reading.
AI flags every issue as native Word comments in the margin, graded critical to minor. Set the tone and focus before it runs — high-level or clause-by-clause — and edit any comment before it's inserted.
Highlight a clause. Work on just that clause.
Select any clause and the AI works only on that selection — redline, comment, compare, or research it.
Defined terms, cross-references, and numbering - audited in seconds.
Orphaned defined terms, broken cross-references, duplicate numbering, monetary inconsistencies — every correction proposed as a tracked change you accept or reject.
Negotiate
Opposing counsel sent it back. Handle everything in minutes.
Respond to their comments, review their redlines, manage your own comments, and turn feedback into tracked changes - without leaving Word.
40 comments from the other side. Respond to all of them at once.
AI drafts a threaded reply to every comment. Set your posture — "push back on everything except liability" — or instruct comment-by-comment. Replies land in native Word comment replies.
60 tracked changes. Every one reviewed with a recommendation.
Every tracked change gets a colour-coded recommendation with reasoning: accept, reject, counter, or comment. Override with one click. Nothing changes until you approve it.
Turn comments into concrete tracked changes.
Your comments — or a colleague's — turn into native Word tracked changes. Pick which to implement and add per-comment instructions for how each one should be handled.
Edit, delete, or update every comment at once.
"Soften the tone." "Delete the resolved ones." "Reword comment 3 to reference clause 7." Bulk comment operations with full undo on every change.
Draft documents that look like your firm wrote them.
From blank page to complete document - contracts, legal opinions, letters, court filings, and notices. Use your own precedent as the foundation, or start from scratch with guided AI questioning.
Describe what you need. The AI asks the right questions, then drafts the document.
Complex agreements, legal opinions, demand letters — the AI asks clarifying questions, plans the sections, and drafts the document. Optionally upload a precedent to match your firm's formatting and tone.
Precedent populated by term sheet
Open your precedent, upload the term sheet or LOI. Party names, dates, amounts, obligations — every deal-specific detail rewritten as native Word tracked changes in minutes.
Every tool your practice needs, working across every document.
Clause Library
Your best clauses from your best deals - searchable and auto-matched. Upload your contracts, AI extracts and categorises every clause. Smart Match suggests relevant precedent language when you're drafting or reviewing.
Reference Materials
Upload a term sheet, prior drafts, a dictated attendance note, or a recorded client meeting - the AI uses them as context. Select which references to include per message. PDFs, Word and audio files supported.
Persistent Playbook
Upload your firm's negotiation playbook and standard positions once. They follow you across every document you open - no need to re-upload or re-explain.
PII Protection
Client names, IDs, addresses anonymised before reaching the AI. Three protection levels. Privacy-first by design.
Legal Research
Highlight a clause and ask "is this enforceable?" The AI searches current legislation, case law, and regulatory guidance - with citations you can verify.
Designed for South African legal practice - client confidentiality by design, SA drafting conventions, workflows familiar to small and mid-size firms.

From the lawyers who use it
“
I went from spending my Sundays on commercial reviews to finishing them on Tuesday mornings. The tracked-changes flow is what sold me - every edit is mine to accept or reject, nothing lands in the document I haven't personally signed off on.

I was wary of AI on fixed-fee transactional work - I've been burned by tools that overpromised. HyperCounsel earned my trust one redline at a time. It's now part of how our two-partner practice prices work.

We rolled it out to four associates in a morning - no IT ticket, no vendor call. The biggest shift has been on the smaller commercial matters we used to turn away. Under R20k work is suddenly profitable again.
