Best for contract review inside Microsoft Word

Spellbook reviews, redlines and drafts contracts from inside Word, with a playbook of your own rules. Prices depend on the number of people on a licence and are quoted after a demo, and the whole suite assumes your contracts live in Word.

Who Spellbook is for

  • Fits if you review or draft contracts in Word every day
  • Makes sense if your firm has its own standard positions to turn into playbooks

Who Spellbook is not for

  • Skip it if your contracts are not handled in Word, since the core is a Word add-in
  • Not for you if you want a price before a demo, as none is published
  • Watch out: autonomous contract management is early access and has to be requested
  • Tight if you want a long trial: it is 7 days, and card terms are not stated

Why Spellbook gets a 2.0

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyNo price is published. It is set by how many people are on the licence and quoted after a demo, so it sits at the ordinary grade.
  • DFree plan and trialA 7-day free trial, longer for bigger organizations. Whether it needs a card is not stated.
  • CFeaturesReview and redlining, drafting, playbooks and an associate agent. The contract-management part is early access and has to be requested.
  • CEase of useNo store rating on record, and playbooks and a Word add-in need setting up before you get value from it.
  • BPlatforms and integrationsWeb plus a Word add-in, with six integrations listed. No phone app is shown.

Keep Spellbook, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace Spellbook you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

What you could make

  • Documents and templates: an app builder makes these well.

What you could not

  • An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
  • It plugs into other products, Slack, iManage and OneDrive among them.

What this rests on. Spellbook’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is Spellbook?

Spellbook is a legal AI suite for in-house teams and law firms. Its Word add-in covers contract review, drafting, questions, benchmarks and playbooks, and Associate is an agent for multi-document matters. A newer contract management product, ACM, is in early access. Pricing is by team size and not published.

Worth knowing

  • No prices are published; pricing depends on the number of team members on a license and is quoted after a demo.
  • The core suite is a Word add-in, so it assumes contracts are handled in Microsoft Word.
  • ACM is early access and has to be requested.
  • Free access is offered to academic institutions through its partnership program.
