## Questions from creative teams

### Can creative teams clear contributor paperwork without waiting for legal?

Yes. Legal records the positions the business accepts once, and Genie reviews contributor agreements, re[leases](https://www.genieai.co/en-us/template-type/lease-agreement) and licensing terms against them, so production is not held by a review queue.

Anything outside those positions is flagged rather than signed.

### How does Genie handle IP assignment and usage rights?

Genie checks incoming terms against your recorded positions on IP ownership, usage scope, territory, term and moral rights, and marks where a counterparty has moved away from them.

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.

### Who decides which rights we can grant or accept?

Legal does, in the playbook: what IP must be assigned, what usage you will grant, and which concessions always escalate.

Creative teams then commission inside those boundaries rather than discovering a rights problem after publication.

### Does Genie 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.

DocuSign and Adobe Sign integrations are in development.

### Can Genie draft contributor and licensing agreements from our own standards?

Yes. Genie drafts from your standards rather than a fixed form, so a contributor agreement, release or licence reflects the rights position your business requires.

You describe the engagement in plain English and Genie produces a first draft.

### 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.

### Is our contract data used to train AI models?

No. Documents you generate or upload stay in your tenant, are not used to train models, and confidential material is not shared with third-party LLMs.

GenieAI is ISO 27001 certified and operates under GDPR.

### How does Genie keep rights consistent across projects?

One recorded playbook applies to every contributor and agency, so the same IP and usage position is taken each time.

That is what prevents a rights concession made on one project becoming the default on the next.
