The challenge

Legal teams face an impossible equation: growing volumes of contracts, tighter compliance requirements, and no additional headcount. theywork365 legal agents handle the high-volume, rule-based work — first-pass contract review, NDA drafting, regulatory monitoring — so your legal professionals focus on negotiation, strategy, and the cases that truly require human judgment.

Agents

What Legal agents can do for you.

Each agent is built specifically for your processes and data. Pricing is per action — you pay only for the value delivered.

  1. 01

    Contract Reviewer

    per Contract reviewed

    Reads contracts and highlights key clauses, obligations, risks, expiry dates, and deviations from your standard templates — delivering a structured review report in minutes instead of hours.

    Before

    A lawyer spends 2–4 hours on each contract first review. During busy periods, reviews are delayed or rushed. Non-standard clauses are sometimes missed.

    After

    First-pass review is complete in minutes. The lawyer receives a structured report with flagged clauses highlighted and risk level assessed. They focus on judgment, not reading.

    How the agent works — step by step

    1. 1

      Contract uploaded to SharePoint or sent via email triggers the agent

    2. 2

      Agent reads the full contract and identifies clause types

    3. 3

      Compares clauses against standard templates stored in SharePoint

    4. 4

      Highlights deviations, missing clauses, and non-standard terms

    5. 5

      Flags obligations with deadlines and assigns risk level (low/medium/high)

    6. 6

      Generates structured review report posted to Legal Teams channel

  2. 02

    NDA Drafter

    per Draft created

    Generates standard NDA drafts from a short brief: mutual or unilateral, duration, governing law, specific carve-outs. Produces a clean Word document ready for legal review in minutes.

    Before

    Drafting an NDA from a template takes 20–45 minutes, involves finding the right template version, and often creates bottlenecks when the legal team is busy.

    After

    Any team member can request an NDA draft in 2 minutes. The agent produces a correct, on-template document. Legal reviews and signs off in a fraction of the time.

    How the agent works — step by step

    1. 1

      Requester sends brief via Teams: parties, type, duration, governing law, special terms

    2. 2

      Agent selects appropriate template from SharePoint template library

    3. 3

      Populates variables and adapts standard clauses to the brief

    4. 4

      Generates clean Word document with track changes off

    5. 5

      Posts draft to Legal channel for review with a summary of key terms

    6. 6

      Logs the NDA in the contract register upon approval

  3. 03

    Compliance Monitor

    per Alert sent

    Tracks regulatory deadlines, policy update requirements, and filing obligations across your relevant jurisdictions. Sends proactive alerts to the compliance team with enough lead time to act.

    Before

    Compliance deadlines are tracked in spreadsheets or calendars that get out of date. Missed filings happen and result in fines. Regulatory changes are spotted reactively.

    After

    Every compliance deadline is tracked automatically. Alerts are sent 30 and 7 days in advance. Regulatory changes trigger immediate notifications with recommended actions.

    How the agent works — step by step

    1. 1

      Agent maintains a compliance calendar from regulatory sources and internal records

    2. 2

      Monitors regulatory bodies and official sources for changes in your jurisdictions

    3. 3

      Sends 30-day and 7-day alerts for upcoming deadlines via Teams

    4. 4

      Alerts compliance lead immediately when a new regulatory change is published

    5. 5

      Attaches relevant regulatory text and suggested impact assessment

    6. 6

      Logs all alerts and responses in the compliance audit trail

  4. 04

    Legal Q&A Agent

    per Query resolved

    Answers common legal questions from internal teams using your company's own policies, contracts, and legal guidelines — with source references. Escalates complex queries to the legal team automatically.

    Before

    Employees send simple legal questions to the legal team constantly: 'can we use this logo?', 'what's our GDPR policy for this?'. These interrupt deep work and delay responses.

    After

    90% of routine questions are answered instantly by the agent, with references to the relevant policy or contract. The legal team handles only the complex cases that require judgment.

    How the agent works — step by step

    1. 1

      Employee asks a legal question via Teams chat

    2. 2

      Agent searches company policies, contracts, and legal guidelines in SharePoint

    3. 3

      Identifies the most relevant clause, policy, or precedent

    4. 4

      Provides a clear answer with source reference and confidence level

    5. 5

      Suggests next steps if further action is needed

    6. 6

      Escalates to the legal team with full context if confidence is below threshold
