Step 3: Run a Prompt on a Document

You can analyze documents in multiple ways:

Option A: Paste a URL

  • Paste a link to a document (e.g., Terms of Service)

  • Aline will retrieve and analyze the content

Option B: Upload or Attach a File

  • Attach a document directly to the prompt

  • Reference it within your request

Option C: Insert Files into Prompts

  • Add documents as context chips inside the prompt

  • Use them for targeted analysis


Step 4: Customize the Prompt

When using a saved or library prompt:

  • Fill in required fields (e.g., company name, use case)

  • Select relevant review categories (e.g., pricing, data usage)

  • Toggle sections on/off depending on your needs

💡 Aline prompts are structured to guide you — just complete the fields and run.


Step 5: Review AI Analysis

Once you run a prompt, Aline will:

  • Analyze the document

  • Provide a detailed breakdown of key terms

  • Highlight risks and important clauses

  • Deliver structured insights for decision-making

Example outputs include:

  • Clause summaries

  • Risk assessments

  • Recommendations


Step 6: Generate Redlines (Optional)

You can go beyond analysis and generate redlines:

  1. Run a prompt on a contract

  2. Review the AI’s recommendations

  3. Ask the AI to apply redlines directly

Aline will:

  • Reprocess the document

  • Insert suggested edits

  • Generate a redlined version of the agreement


Step 7: Use AI for Contract Review

Aline AI can:

  • Review vendor agreements

  • Identify risky clauses

  • Rank issues by priority

  • Provide negotiation guidance

Example output:

  • Green / Yellow / Red clause analysis

  • Recommended changes

Step 8: Collaborate with Your Team

AI Chat is now a team-based workflow tool:

  • Share prompts across your organization

This turns legal AI into a collaborative system, not just an individual tool.
