Contract Review in Minutes: 5 Industry-Specific Prompts

In-house counsel: 5 AI prompts to flag high-risk clauses and compliance gaps in SaaS, employment, government, IP, and real estate contracts.

This pack delivers 5 AI prompts designed specifically for in-house counsel and legal ops managers at mid-market companies who review 20–100+ contracts quarterly. Each prompt is engineered to flag high-risk clauses and compliance gaps in minutes—not hours—for a specific contract type (SaaS, employment, government, IP, real estate). No generic boilerplate: every prompt names your buyer role, references industry-specific risk matrices (e.g., GDPR for SaaS, WARN Act for employment, DFARS for government), and generates redline priorities tailored to your company's playbook. The five industry variants let you skip the "how do I prompt this for my industry?" phase and go straight to faster, more accurate contract triage. Each variant includes 5 focused prompts covering initial risk flagging, compliance checklist generation, negotiation setup, portfolio analysis, and post-signature renewal tracking. Built for ChatGPT, Claude, and other LLMs—paste contract text and run the prompt. Tested to reduce manual contract review workload by 30–50% in the triage phase (the part that costs the most time), freeing your legal team to focus on judgment calls and negotiation strategy.

Who this is for

In-house counsel or legal ops manager at a $250M+ mid-market company reviewing 20–100+ contracts quarterly and tired of generic contract checklists.

Who this is NOT for

Not a substitute for legal judgment, negotiation strategy, or your company's internal risk playbook. Not for general counsel unfamiliar with their company's tolerance for risk or deal velocity; prompts require human review and decision-making.

25 copy-paste prompts across 5 variants.

Step 2 — Pick a Prompt and Fill in the Variables

Every prompt contains one or more {{VARIABLE}} placeholders — these are instructions to you, not to the AI.

Replace each {{VARIABLE}} with your real information before pasting.

Example — before: ``` Analyze the following system: {{ARCHITECTUREDESCRIPTION}} within {{BUSINESSCONTEXT}}. ```

Example — after (paste this to the AI): ``` Analyze the following system: We have a REST API on Node/Express serving a web dashboard and a mobile app. We return 80+ fields per product even though mobile only uses 6. Within the context of a Series A SaaS with 12 enterprise customers, $180k ARR. ```

How detailed should my variables be? 2–5 sentences or a short bullet list is enough Real and specific beats long and vague A rough draft is better than waiting for perfect

Step 3 — Paste into ChatGPT or Claude and Run

Recommended AI tools (in order of quality for these prompts): Claude Sonnet / Claude Opus (claude.ai) — best analytical depth ChatGPT GPT-4o (chat.openai.com) — great alternative ChatGPT GPT-4o mini — works for quick exploration; less depth

Free tier works. Paid tier gives better and longer responses.

Paste the entire filled-in prompt — do not summarize or shorten it. After the first response, follow up with questions like: "Focus on point 3 — give me a concrete example" "Rewrite this as a one-page memo for a non-technical stakeholder"

Common Questions

Q: Do I need to use every prompt? No. Think of this pack like a reference manual — use what fits your situation. Most buyers find 3–5 prompts they return to repeatedly.

Q: The AI gave me a vague answer. What do I do? Add more specifics to your variable text. One extra paragraph of context typically produces a dramatically better result.

Q: Can I share these prompts with my team? Your license covers personal and internal team use within one organization. You may not resell or republish the prompts publicly.

Q: Can I use these in other AI tools (Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot)? Yes. The prompts are plain text and work in any LLM chat interface.
