What this flow does
What this flow does
Instead of editing the DOCX file externally and re-uploading, you can instruct the AI directly in the chat panel to make changes to the contract. The AI understands the full document structure and makes targeted edits — rewrites, insertions, heading updates — in real time.

Type an edit instruction
In the chat input, describe the change you want. Be specific about which clause or section you're targeting.
Example instructions:
Make the opening paragraph more detailed.Update the heading for Section 3 to read "Payment and Invoicing Terms".Rewrite the limitation of liability clause in plain English.Add a sentence to Section 5 stating that all notices must be sent via email.Make the termination for convenience clause shorter and more neutral.
Step 4

Review the change
The AI makes the edit directly in the document. The change appears highlighted in the document viewer on the left.
Each edit creates a new minor version (e.g. v1.1 v1.2). You can undo if needed.

Iterate if needed
If the result isn't quite right, refine with a follow-up instruction in the same chat thread:
Make it shorter.Use more formal language.Remove the second sentence.Add a cross-reference to Section 8.

Re-analyze when done
After making significant edits, click Re-analyze in the top bar. This refreshes the AI's issue analysis to reflect your updated document. Old issues may no longer be relevant after your changes.
Tips & Workarounds
Tips & Workarounds
Tip: The AI has full document context. It understands the contract structure and knows where to make changes without you specifying a page number.
Tip: You can also ask questions in the same chat ("What is the current limitation of liability cap?"). Not every message needs to be an edit instruction.
Tip: After editing, always click Re-analyze so the Issues List reflects the updated document. Old issues may no longer be relevant after your changes.
Note: Each chat edit creates a new document version. There is no version history UI yet. If you need to revert multiple versions, use the Undo option immediately after each change.
