Common questions
Questions from consultancy teams
What engagement leads and legal ask before putting client paperwork through Genie.
Which consultancy documents does GenieAI generate?
Master service agreements, statements of work, engagement letters, NDAs, subcontractor agreements, and the documents consultancies negotiate with every client.
Can consultancy teams review contracts without waiting for legal?
Yes. Legal sets the positions your business accepts once, as a playbook, and Genie reviews incoming MSAs, statements of work and DPAs against it, so routine work moves without joining a legal queue.
Anything outside those positions is flagged rather than waved through, so legal keeps the standard and the business keeps the timeline.
Who decides which contract positions we can accept?
Legal does. The playbook is authored and owned by your legal function: preferred positions, acceptable fallbacks, and the points you will not concede. Genie applies it rather than substituting a standard of its own.
That division is the point. The business gets speed without reopening settled questions, and legal gets consistency without reviewing every draft.
How long does a client MSA review take with Genie?
It depends on length and how much the counterparty has changed, so we publish customer outcomes rather than a single headline figure. Firefish, a market research agency of 50 to 100 people with its own in-house legal function, cut contract review time by more than 50% and now handles the same volume with half the legal availability.
HoSt Group, a 700-person energy company, gives 25 commercial seats to its sales and commercial teams and reports 80% faster reviews. The saving comes from Genie reviewing against your playbook first, so whoever opens the contract starts from a marked-up draft rather than a blank page.
Does GenieAI work inside Microsoft Word?
Yes. Genie works directly in Microsoft Word, so you review and redline in the document your counterparty actually sent, rather than moving it into another system and breaking your review trail.
What happens when a counterparty's redline falls outside our playbook?
Genie flags the deviation instead of accepting it. The change is identified against the specific position it breaches, so whoever reads it can see what was altered, why it matters, and whether it needs a decision from legal.
Escalation is the feature rather than the failure. It is how legal stays in control of the standard while everything inside the standard keeps moving.
What happens when a statement of work contradicts the master agreement?
Genie reads the statement of work against the master service agreement it sits under and flags where the two disagree, on scope, payment terms, liability caps, IP ownership or termination rights.
That conflict is where consultancy margin leaks. A signed SOW that quietly overrides a negotiated cap costs more than most redlines, and it is the thing a busy delivery lead is least likely to spot.

Commercial and compliance leaders on what changed once Genie took on their contracts.
I would urge other companies to use AI software to support them. It really improves the timeline for negotiating contracts. And it builds confidence in your commercial team to do the negotiations themselves.
Once we had the demo and realized how much time, resource, and money it could save the football club, it was an absolute no-brainer.
We cut contract review time by over 50% with Genie.
Liability is always a contentious point. We can get to the point in a matter of five minutes.
