## What the story says

McCollister's sole in-house lawyer uses Ivo's Word plugin as the first step on incoming contracts to generate initial redlines, check and amend terms, and search within contracts. This avoids reviewing entire documents and repetitive amendments.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Ivo and McCollister's, not ours.

> By leveraging the checklist feature to identify and rectify terms, along with the ask feature for timely answers, Schukraft saves about an hour each day, eliminating the need to review entire documents.

> Ivo is a remarkable tool if used correctly. It’s akin to having a first-year law student or paralegal, where oversight is crucial, but it significantly reduces the workload.
