A legal team uses bots to prepare meetings, track open questions, and add deal facts. People check every message and every change.

What it does by itselfIt reads and writes drafts. It changes records only after it shows you a preview and you say yes.

How it works

A legal team at xAI uses several bots, and each bot does one kind of work. Before meetings with lawyers, a bot reads team chat, notes, and lists of open work. It writes an agenda with open questions and problems. After the meeting, it writes the decisions on the right pages. Another bot keeps a list of legal questions from the sales team. About every 30 minutes, it updates the list and adds facts about each deal. When a lawyer approves a contract, a bot can move it into the contract system. It shows a preview first and waits for a yes. People check every message before it goes out.

How to set it up

  1. Make one bot for each kind of work, not one bot for everything.
  2. Let bots write drafts. A person sends every message.
  3. Put meeting preparation and updates on a schedule. Do research only when someone asks.
  4. Save standing rules: check sources, do not guess, and use plain words.
  5. Keep reading and changing records apart. Ask for a preview before any change.

What people report

One bot updates the list of legal questions about every 30 minutes. It adds deal facts twice a day. Each Monday, it sends a list of open items. The guide gives no time savings.
