Yes. Legal sets the positions the business accepts once, and Genie reviews incoming licence, support and cloud agreements against them, so routine renewals move without a legal queue. Anything outside those positions is flagged rather than accepted, so legal sees the exceptions. ### How does Genie handle software licences and support contracts? Genie checks incoming licence and support terms against your recorded positions on liability, service levels, data handling and termination, and marks each departure against the position it breaches. 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 licence terms IT can accept? Legal does, once, as a playbook. IT negotiates inside those boundaries without reopening settled questions such as acceptable indemnities or audit rights. That division gives IT speed on renewals and legal consistency across the estate. ### 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 cloud and support agreements from our own standards? Yes. Genie drafts from your standards rather than a fixed form, so a support agreement, cloud contract or DPA reflects the positions your organization has approved. Current-law accuracy extends across more than 150 jurisdictions. ### 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 quickly can an IT team start using Genie? The practical gate is the playbook rather than the software. Teams draft and review from day one, and the compounding value arrives once legal has captured its standard positions. That is a short exercise rather than a project. --- This is the Markdown representation of [https://www.genieai.co/legal-ai-for-teams/it](https://www.genieai.co/legal-ai-for-teams/it), provided for AI agents and crawlers.
