What you'll accomplish
By the end of this guide, you'll have Spellbook installed in Microsoft Word and running AI-assisted redline reviews on vendor contracts.

What you'll need
- Microsoft Word (desktop, Windows or Mac — not web version)
- A Spellbook account (spellbook.legal)
- A contract in .docx format to practice on
- Time needed: 30 minutes to set up; then 30–60 minutes per contract thereafter (down from 2–4 hours)
