Today, Spellbook CEO and co-founder Scott Stevenson joins us to talk about the release of their new Library feature, which enables lawyers to turn their past work into a rich, searchable knowledge base, giving the AI a smarter foundation for drafting and review.

At the heart of Library 1.0 is Smart Clause Drafting, a feature that surfaces relevant clauses from a lawyer’s own document history—and makes them instantly reusable.

Also notable, according to Spellbook, is the ability to have "Personalization without Prompt Engineering:" Rather than forcing lawyers to become prompt engineers or retrain models, Spellbook uses precedent-based search and contextual language adaptation to reflect how an individual (or firm) actually writes.
