FAQ
What lawyers ask before they let an agent touch a contract.
The questions GCs, security teams, and procurement ask first. Click to expand.
Is the audit trail admissible?
Every primitive call logs inputs, outputs, prompts, model version, and operator identity to an immutable trace. Exportable in formats your regulator and your court accept.Does the agent respect ethical walls?
Workspaces enforce matter-level and client-level access controls. An agent acting in one matter cannot read documents from another. Ethical wall configurations are auditable.Can my GC stop an agent mid-flow?
Yes. Wordsmith.escalate hands off to a named reviewer before any irreversible action. The agent waits. The GC approves, edits, or cancels.Is attorney-client privilege preserved?
Wordsmith is configurable as a service provider under common privilege frameworks. We sign BAAs, support ZDR for sensitive workspaces, and document the privilege posture for your auditors.Can I prove what the agent did six months ago?
Every action is captured with full provenance — primitive, input, output, model, prompt, operator, timestamp. Retention is configurable. The trail survives model upgrades.What would I be deploying?
Nothing. Wordsmith is a managed SaaS product. There is no on-prem component to install and nothing to patch. Your engineers integrate via MCP or the SDK.What would I be approving?
Outbound network access to *.wordsmith.com, Wordsmith’s connectors to your document sources (configurable), and any LLM provider routes you elect. All ingress is denied by default.

Manifesto
We believe legal work is moving from humans-with-tools to agents-with-oversight.
The platform that serves agents safely — with provenance and the governance lawyers can defend — will define the next decade of legal AI. Wordsmith is built for that world.
