Legal research has always had a precision problem. The answer exists. Finding it, and knowing it applies to your specific situation, is harder than it should be. For years, the best tools gave you a shovel and pointed you at the mountain.

We built Wordsmith to go further.

At Wordsmith, our research has always been built on a foundation of rock-solid, verifiable sources. We cover 130+ jurisdictions over 60 countries and combine four distinct source types for every query:

1. Curated Legal Sources and databases: The actual laws and guidance.

2. Smart Web Search: The latest from trusted government and regulatory sites.

3. Live Business Data: Real-time info from corporate registries like Companies House, EDGAR, and Open Corporates.

4. Your Company Intelligence: Your own documents and data.

This four-source approach delivers answers you can trust. But for in-house teams, a correct answer is only half the battle. You need the right answer for your business, right now.

That's why we're introducing a new layer of personalization to our research engine. It's not just about finding the law; it's about applying it to your world.

Meet Your New Research Assistants: Company Intelligence & Personal Memory

Wordsmith now gets to know you on three distinct levels.

First, Wordsmith is jurisdiction-aware. It automatically knows which laws and regulations apply from our 130+ jurisdictions. You don't have to tell it you're working on a California issue; it understands the context and applies the correct legal framework, every time.

Second, it goes deeper by learning your business context through Company Profiles. You can create profiles for each of your subsidiaries or joint ventures, each with a unique risk profile. Does your German entity have a different risk tolerance for data processing than your US parent company? Are you operating in a highly regulated industry where that shapes every compliance decision? Wordsmith knows that and tailors its guidance accordingly.

Finally, with Personal Memory, it learns from your feedback, edits, and preferred clauses over time. It adapts to your individual work style, becoming a true extension of your own expertise, shaped by the clauses you favour and the positions you've already taken.

Research in Your Workflow

Research rarely happens in isolation. You need to check a position to update an agreement, evaluate a risk, or advise the business. Wordsmith blends trusted legal research into the tools you use every day, so you get answers right where you work.

Here's what that actually looks like:

Use Case 1: Draft with Confidence Drafting an employment agreement in California? Wordsmith's jurisdiction-aware engine instantly flags your standard non-compete clause as void and suggests an enforceable alternative, saving you from a future compliance headache without leaving your document.

Use Case 2: Instantly Verify a Director's Eligibility Closing a deal late at night? Instead of frantically searching registries, just research a director's name in your contract. Wordsmith pings the live Companies House integration and confirms their eligibility in seconds, so you can close the deal and get some sleep.

Use Case 3: Accelerate Your Entry into a New Market Expanding into a new market? Compress days of research into minutes. Check your existing agreements and DPAs against the target jurisdiction's legal and privacy framework to deliver an answer that's tailored to your company's compliance posture.

Stop Searching. Start Answering.

Legal research shouldn't be a standalone task. It's woven into everything you do: drafting contracts, advising stakeholders, evaluating risks. With Wordsmith's new personalization features, you finally have a research tool that works the way you actually work, so you can focus on what you're actually there to do: keep the business moving, protect it from risk, and give clear, confident advice.
