Running and Creating Playbooks

How to upload, run, and apply a playbook against a contract.

Written by Shreya

Playbooks let your firm encode standard contract positions, fallback positions, and risk thresholds. Run a playbook against any document to get a clause-by-clause deviation report.

Running a Playbook

  1. Open the document you want to review.

  2. Switch to Playbook in the bottom toolbar.

  3. Upload the playbook you want to use, or select one you have already added.

  4. Click the play button at the top right.

The Playbook analyses the entire agreement against the rules defined in it. Results return as a breakdown across four categories:

  • Unacceptable: clauses that do not meet the firm's positions and need to be redrafted.

  • Fallback: clauses that match the firm's fallback position.

  • Starting: clauses that match the firm's preferred starting position.

  • Missed provisions: clauses or positions that the playbook expects but were not found in the document.

Applying Suggested Edits

Click Suggest All Edits. The Assistant generates updates for every flagged clause. Apply the changes using the same four options as in the Assistant:

  • Apply as tracked change

  • Apply

  • Apply with comment

  • Apply as tracked change with comment

You can also work through the suggestions one by one using Show and Apply to review each change in context before committing.

Creating a Playbook

You can upload an existing playbook or build a custom one by filling in the required fields.

For each rule, define:

Starting position: the preferred language for the client.

Fallback position: the backup language acceptable to the client.

Editing Rules

You can search, add, or modify existing rules directly from the playbook component.
