# Legal & Compliance Use Cases

> Opportunity patterns for document review, policy monitoring, contract analysis and evidence gathering.

These use cases are often assistive rather than autonomous because errors can have material consequences.

## Document review support

Classify documents, extract defined clauses and create issue lists for qualified review.

## Contract analysis

Compare terms against an approved playbook and surface deviations. The system should support, not replace, legal judgment.

## Policy monitoring

Track changes across approved regulatory or policy sources and route potentially relevant changes to the responsible owner.

## Evidence gathering

Organise documents, correspondence and case material into a traceable evidence set.

## Compliance workflow support

Draft checklists, capture evidence status and route exceptions while preserving accountable approvals.

## Controls to design early

* approved source boundaries;
* audit trail;
* permissions;
* citation/provenance;
* human sign-off;
* retention and deletion;
* escalation for uncertain output.

<Warning>
  Do not market an AI workflow as legal or regulatory advice unless the delivery model, qualifications and applicable rules support that claim.
