Brackets AI is a generative AI-powered Microsoft Word add-in for contract drafting, review, and redlining. Uses GPT-4 and other leading language models to analyze agreements, suggest redlines, and accelerate contract workflows. Available on Microsoft Marketplace. Founded by Erik Sandström (CEO of Osier Legal Tech AB). Included in the LegalBenchmarks.ai Phase 2 research ‘Benchmarking Humans & AI in Contract Drafting’ alongside August, GC AI, InstaSpace, SimpleDocs — a rigorous independent evaluation. Listed on LegalTech Hub (standard + ILTA editions) under ‘Smart Drafting.’ Compared by Dioptra.ai as alternative for automated contract redlining. Partnership with Plume mentioned on LinkedIn. Testimonial from Co-Founder & CEO of casepal: ‘a very helpful contract drafting tool, I can testify.’ Robert Ambrogi (Artificial Lawyer) reported the LegalBenchmarks study results noting ‘AI contract drafting tools outperform human lawyers.’ No public pricing found. No G2/Capterra reviews. LinkedIn followers and employee count not determinable from search. Website: brackets.ai. Very focused product — contract drafting/review/redlining only, not a CLM platform.

What We Haven’t Verified
This page was assembled from publicly available information. Feature claims and workflow mappings are based on what the vendor and third-party listings publish — not hands-on testing or practitioner feedback.
Workflows
Based on practitioner evidence, Brackets is used in these workflows:
What practitioners struggle with
Real frustrations from legal professionals — the problems Brackets addresses (or should address). Sourced from practitioner reviews, Reddit threads, and case studies.
Contract redlining is a nightmare — 7 rounds of Track Changes in Word, counterparty turns off tracking, and nobody knows what changed between v5 and v7
NDAs and routine contracts take 3-7 days because every single one routes through legal — no self-service for standard terms
Contract auto-renewed at 15% higher because nobody tracked the 60-day opt-out window buried on page 37
Where it fits in your workflow
Before Brackets
Attorney or legal team receives contract to review/draft → opens in Microsoft Word → activates Brackets add-in → AI analyzes agreement, suggests redlines, identifies key terms and risks
After Brackets
After AI-assisted review → attorney edits suggestions in Word → finalized contract sent to counterparty. Brackets operates within Word — no separate platform needed.
Integrations & hand-offs
Brackets (Word add-in) → Microsoft Word (native environment); → attorney review (accept/reject AI suggestions); → counterparty (edited contract via email/data room). Integration with CLM platforms unclear.
