The problem

Routine transactional legal work (NDAs, contracts, filings) is expensive and slow, but the unauthorized-practice-of-law line makes naive automation risky.

What you get

Standard documents drafted and e-signed straight-through; advice-shaped output gated to a licensed attorney; privilege and retention preserved.

The flow

Intake to outcome. 🤖 steps run automatically; 🧑‍⚖️ steps are where a named human signs off the judgment calls.

Human checkpoints

Licensed attorney of record — A licensed attorney signs off any advice-shaped output before it reaches the client

The autopilot escalates the judgment calls to a qualified human — the rest is straight-through.

Why it's safe to let it run

Every autonomous decision is logged — who · what · confidence. Signed human checkpoints and a built-in compliance reviewer enforce the rails, so the outcome holds up to an audit, not just a demo. Every irreversible action runs only after a human signs — the autopilot does the volume, never the point of no return on its own.

🧑 Accountable owner: Supervising attorney — one person answers for what this autopilot does.
