Overview

Law Insider started as a comprehensive online database containing millions of publicly filed contracts and clauses, serving as a critical resource for legal professionals needing examples for research and drafting. Users can search for specific clauses, definitions, and entire agreements. Recently (announced March 2025, launching April 2025), Law Insider partnered with SimpleDocs to integrate a suite of AI-powered tools directly into its platform and via a Microsoft Word add-in. These tools leverage AI (including OpenAI technology) combined with Law Insider's extensive database to assist with drafting clauses, reviewing and redlining third-party contracts based on customizable playbooks, and benchmarking clauses using the "Law Insider Index Score." The platform aims to make sophisticated contract AI tools accessible and affordable, particularly for solo practitioners, small firms, and in-house counsel.
