Contracts remain one of the most persistent pressure points for in-house legal teams. Intake comes from different places, review standards are not always easy to apply consistently, negotiation history is often hard to reuse, and business stakeholders want faster answers without sacrificing legal judgment. AI can help, but only when it is applied to the actual contracting workflow: triaging work by risk and complexity, supporting first-pass review, surfacing issues for lawyer judgment, and helping teams learn from what they have already negotiated. This session is designed for in-house counsel and legal operations leaders who are evaluating where AI can create practical leverage in contract review and negotiation today. Facilitated by Harvey’s Legal Innovation Partners and in-house counsel at Koch Commercial, the discussion will focus on what changes when AI is used as part of the contracting process — not as a replacement for legal judgment, and not as a product showcase, but as a way to rethink how legal teams capture standards, review high-volumes of agreements, and focus on winning the terms that matter most for the business.

Organizations are moving quickly to adopt AI across the business. While your leadership may be pushing to use AI everywhere now, the task of putting the necessary compliance, risk, data quality, and data security measures in place can feel daunting, if not overwhelming. This webinar breaks AI readiness into practical, manageable steps, so organizations can focus on the most important measures to implement now while building a strong foundation for broader AI use over time. We examine the different stages of AI adoption, including early experimentation with tools such as ChatGPT, the use of Copilot, and more advanced deployments such as agentic RAG. For each stage, we outline the policies, processes, and data capabilities needed to responsibly and effectively support that level of use. Come away with a clear checklist for assessing your current state, identifying gaps, and understanding how each stage builds on previous ones to create a scalable and sustainable AI readiness program.
