Spellbook
AI contract drafting inside Microsoft Word — $99/user/mo to sell a legal-ops retainer
What Spellbook is
Spellbook is an AI contract drafting and review tool built as a native Microsoft Word add-in — no tab switching, no copy-pasting. It drafts contract language, flags risk, suggests missing clauses, and enforces client playbooks directly in the document. Plans start at $99/user/month (Starter, 50 AI-assisted drafts/month, 14-day free trial); Professional runs ~$149/user/month; Enterprise at $199/user/month requires minimum 10 seats. No free tier. Pricing is confirmed-range from independent sources — verify at spellbook.legal for a precise quote.

- Risk flagging: scores contract risk and surfaces non-standard terms for attorney review
- Playbook enforcement on Enterprise: locks client-standard positions into every contract output

💰 Sell it as a service
The offer
Legal-ops retainer for small law firms and in-house legal teams — install Spellbook, build a custom clause playbook for the client's standard deal types, and run monthly contract-review training sessions.
What to charge
Charge $500-$1,000 setup (playbook configuration, team onboarding, first-review walkthrough) plus $300-$500/month for ongoing playbook updates and monthly risk-report review. Pass the $99/user/month Starter cost through as an itemized line. For solo practitioners, a one-time $750 setup with no retainer is a clean entry offer.
How it gets delivered
Install the Word add-in on the client's machines, connect their existing contract templates, build 10-15 playbook positions for their most common deal type (NDA, MSA, SOW). Deliver a one-page 'how to use Spellbook' SOP. Monthly retainer = 30-minute playbook review call plus updating clause positions as deal terms evolve.
