The Challenge
The client was spending over 40 hours a week manually reviewing contracts to extract specific liability clauses. Because these contracts contained highly sensitive client data, they could not use public cloud AI APIs like OpenAI or Anthropic.
The Solution
We deployed a local, fine-tuned open-source model (Llama 3) entirely within their on-premise infrastructure. We built a custom document processing pipeline that ingested PDFs, OCR'd them, and extracted the necessary clauses into a structured format for review.
Outcomes
- Reduced contract review time by 85%.
- Maintained 100% data privacy with zero external API calls.
- Freed up senior paralegals to focus on higher-value advisory work.
