Introduction
Hello, I'm Emma, and I'm excited to share with You my project with Robin AI, a small start-up in the legal tech sector. Our goal at Robin AI is to automate low complexity tasks within the legal sector. In this article, we will explore how Robin AI is revolutionizing the process of NDA markup, making it more efficient and cost-effective.
The Problem in Legal Sector Automation
Automation has become a buzzword in many industries, but the legal sector has been slow to adopt this technology. Many aspects of legal work are still performed manually, leading to inefficiencies and high costs. One such task is the markup of Non-Disclosure Agreements, or NDAs.
Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs)
NDAs play a crucial role in business transactions, allowing companies to share sensitive information without the fear of unauthorized disclosure. When a company, let's say Facebook, wants to invest in another company like LinkedIn, a lot of financial information needs to be shared. To safeguard this information, LinkedIn would send Facebook an NDA, ensuring that the financial data remains confidential.
The Role of Lawyers in NDA Markup
Traditionally, when Facebook receives an NDA, they would send it to a lawyer for review. The lawyer's role is to meticulously check the NDA against a rulebook and make corrections, if necessary. This process can be time-consuming and costly, as lawyers are typically expensive.
Challenges Faced by Lawyers in NDA Markup
The day-to-day activities of a lawyer involve speaking in court, negotiating, and putting together complex legal cases. However, the task of marking up an NDA is often mundane and requires immense concentration and diligence. This repetitive work can be disliked by lawyers, as it doesn't showcase their creativity or problem-solving skills.
Introducing Robin AI
This is where Robin AI steps in to revolutionize the NDA markup process. Instead of relying solely on lawyers for this task, Robin AI offers an automated solution that streamlines the process and reduces costs for clients.
How Robin AI Automates NDA Markup
Robin AI approaches NDA markup in three main sections. First, it locates specific sentences within the document, such as jurisdiction clauses. Next, it checks the correctness of these sentences using a rulebook. Finally, if any corrections are needed, Robin AI rewrites the sentence accordingly.
The Burp Model: Locating Sentences in NDAs
Locating a sentence within a multi-page NDA can be compared to finding a needle in a haystack. To overcome this challenge, the Burp Model, which utilizes natural language processing techniques, is utilized. With the Burp Model, I can successfully identify jurisdiction clauses within an NDA with an accuracy of 90%.
Complexities of Multi-class Sentence Identification
While locating jurisdiction clauses is a significant achievement, the complexity increases when dealing with multi-class sentence identification. NDAs can contain various clauses like governing law, remedies, confidential information, and arbitration. Robin AI's model tackles this problem and achieves a correct identification rate of 76%.
Benefits of Robin AI in NDA Markup
The introduction of Robin AI has tremendous benefits for both clients and lawyers. By automating the NDA markup process, lawyers spend 10 minutes less per NDA, leading to significant cost savings of around £10,000 per lawyer per year for clients. Additionally, lawyers are freed from the mundane task of markup and can focus on more intellectually demanding work, increasing job satisfaction.
Cost Savings and Efficiency Gains
The cost savings achieved with the implementation of Robin AI's NDA markup automation are substantial. Clients benefit from reduced legal expenses, and lawyers can allocate their time and expertise more effectively, resulting in overall efficiency gains in the legal sector.
Conclusion
In a technology-driven world, it is essential for the legal sector to embrace automation to enhance efficiency and reduce costs. Robin AI's innovative approach to NDA markup offers significant benefits to both clients and lawyers. By automating low complexity tasks like NDA markup, Robin AI is revolutionizing the legal sector and paving the way for a more streamlined and productive future.
