LEGAL CREW
Don’t let the important detail become an expensive surprise.
Contracts arrive. Terms change. Obligations accumulate. And you’re expected to know what deserves a closer look. Your Legal Crew helps you review documents, identify potential issues and prepare the questions that need your judgement or professional legal advice.
01 · THE PROBLEM
You don’t need to become a lawyer. You do need to know what you’re agreeing to.
A supplier changes its terms. An investor sends a term sheet. A customer requests something unusual in a contract. The risk isn’t always obvious, and finding it takes time.
01 · A SUPPLIER RENEWAL
“We’ve updated our terms.”
What slips
Revised terms arrive with the renewal. You skim them between meetings and hope nothing important moved.
02 · AN INVESTOR TERM SHEET
“Here are our proposed terms.”
What slips
You understand most of it. It’s the provisions you don’t fully understand that worry you.
03 · A CUSTOMER REQUEST
“Can we change the liability clause?”
What slips
Sales wants an answer today. You’re not sure what you would be agreeing to.
02 · GIVE THIS RESPONSIBILITY TO CREW ONE
Know what you’re agreeing to before you agree.
A bounded, read-only review. The Legal Crew reads and prepares; decisions stay with you and your professional advisers.

Illustrative workflow. Early-access capabilities and integrations are confirmed during onboarding.
05 · YOU KEEP CONTROL
It reads and prepares. You decide.
The Legal Crew’s authority is deliberately narrow: it reads what you share and prepares a review. Every decision about an agreement stays with you.
CARRIED BY THE CREW · WITHIN AGREED AUTHORITY
- Reading the documents you choose to share
- Extracting the terms that matter
- Identifying risks and missing information
- Preparing a review summary and questions for counsel
- Recording the decision you approve
Comes back to you
- Whether to accept, negotiate or sign
- Anything that needs professional legal advice
- Any communication with the other party
- Any commitment on behalf of the company
- Anything outside the authority you’ve set
The Legal Crew does not give legal advice, and it never approves, signs or sends an agreement.
06 · CONNECTED CREWS
One Crew. Connected to the company.
Legal can help Finance and GTM understand the terms of a proposed commercial agreement. Relevant decisions and obligations can then be handed to the appropriate Crew for authorised follow-through.

07 · QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Before you share the first document.
What the Legal Crew does, what it doesn’t, and where professional advice still matters.
- 01
Is this legal advice?
No. The Legal Crew helps you understand a document and prepare the right questions. Where a decision needs legal advice, it points you to a qualified professional.
- 02
Can it sign or send anything on my behalf?
No. It doesn’t approve, sign or send agreements, and it doesn’t contact the other party. Those decisions stay with you.
- 03
What should I share with it first?
Start with one document that is waiting on you, such as a supplier agreement or a set of revised terms. You decide what it reads.
Know what needs a closer look.
Give the Legal Crew the first read. Keep every decision.
Your context. Your rules. Your final say.
Run the company. Not the agents.
