Smarter Contracting with AI in Precisely

AI continues to shape how businesses handle contracts but responsible use is what truly sets progress apart from hype.

In our recent webinar, Smarter Contracting with AI in Precisely, CTO Oscar Klink and Legal & Compliance Expert Mahé Bonnot explored how Precisely is approaching AI innovation with the same focus that has always defined our platform: privacy, compliance, and trust.

Rather than chasing trends, the session focused on what actually works in practice: how to integrate AI into contract workflows safely, effectively, and transparently.

Key topics from the session

1. Why AI is changing contracting

AI, and especially large language models (LLMs), are powerful tools for reading, summarizing, and interpreting unstructured data (exactly what contracts are made of). Used well, they can streamline review cycles, support drafting, and reduce manual work without removing human judgment.

2. The limits (and risks—of AI

Oscar and Mahé both highlighted the importance of context and oversight. LLMs don’t have legal intuition or experience; they rely on the data you give them. Without clear safeguards, accuracy can drop and sensitive data can be exposed. The message was clear: AI supports legal work, it doesn’t replace it.

3. Why privacy and data residency matter

Behind every prompt is a data transfer. As Mahé explained, most global AI services still process data outside the EU. For organizations operating under GDPR, it’s essential to confirm where data is processed and what retention or training policies apply.

At Precisely, all data is processed in the EU, with transparency and user control as core design principles.

4. Precisely’s AI roadmap

Oscar shared how Precisely is embedding AI capabilities directly into the platform to enhance, not disrupt, the way teams already work:

  • Metadata and summary extraction (already live)
  • AI Chatbot for smarter, faster search and Q&A
  • Upcoming features for natural language search, contract analysis, and guardrail-based playbooks
  • Continued focus on human-in-the-loop validation and EU-only processing

As Oscar put it:

“We don’t believe in innovation at any cost. AI in contracting should make life easier without compromising trust, security, or compliance.”
