AI overview

Sullivan & Cromwell has teamed with OpenAI to create the Agreement Analyzer, a tool that leverages OpenAI’s large‑language‑model technology to identify potential problems in draft agreements. The platform is designed to streamline legal document review, aiming to improve both the speed and accuracy of contract analysis. The collaboration brings together Sullivan & Cromwell’s deep legal expertise with OpenAI’s advanced AI capabilities, offering firms a way to flag inconsistencies, missing clauses, and other risks early in the drafting process. While the tool is still in development, early demonstrations suggest it can reduce manual review time and help lawyers focus on higher‑level strategic issues. The initiative reflects a broader trend of law firms adopting AI to enhance efficiency and reduce costs in contract work.
