For employees and executives

Use the best AI on your legal questions — with your attorney, and privilege intact.

Employees and executives work through contracts, NDAs, and everyday legal questions with ChatGPT, Claude, and the other leading models — inside a matter, with their in-house attorney in the same session. Privilege AI records the basis, the citations, and the model route on every message, so the session supports a claim of privilege rather than putting one at risk.

Hiring manager

We want to hire a candidate who is under a non-compete at a competitor — what is our exposure?

Claude Opus 4.8

Her non-compete bars competing work for 12 months and names your company specifically Doc 4 · p.2 , so a direct hire into the same role carries real risk of an injunction.

In-house counsel

If we put her on a non-competing team for the first year, does that reduce the risk?

Claude Opus 4.8

It helps — the non-compete reaches competing duties, not employment itself Doc 4 · p.3 , so a walled-off role for 12 months is defensible. Document the separation of duties.

Examples

What a privileged AI session looks like.

Three things employees and executives do every week — done inside a matter, with their attorney prompting the same AI in the session and the privilege basis and audit chain recorded as a byproduct.

Review a contract

Read a contract before you sign it.

Ask for the risks in plain terms, and let your attorney press the follow-ups — both of you prompting the same AI in one session. The model cites the clauses in the matter documents, and the basis is recorded on every turn.

Northwind · Vendor MSA · Privileged
Employee

Flag the indemnity, IP-assignment, and termination risks in this MSA before I sign it Friday.

GPT-5.1

Three to raise: the indemnity is uncapped for IP claims under §9.2 Doc 3 · p.6 , the IP-assignment sweeps in your pre-existing tools under §11.1 Doc 3 · p.8 , and either side can terminate for convenience on 30 days’ notice Doc 3 · p.14 .

In-house counsel

Can we cap the indemnity and carve out our background IP?

GPT-5.1

Yes — propose a fees cap on §9.2 and a background-IP exclusion in §11.1 Doc 3 · p.8 . Both are standard counters the MSA doesn’t prohibit.

Ask about an NDA

Know what an NDA actually commits you to.

Before you sign a mutual NDA, ask what it really binds you to in plain terms — and let your attorney check the edge cases in the same session.

Northwind · Mutual NDA · Privileged
Employee

We are about to sign this mutual NDA with a partner — what does it actually stop us from doing?

Claude Sonnet 4.6

It is mutual and limited to the evaluation Doc 5 · p.1 , but §3 defines “confidential information” broadly enough to cover your own roadmap, and §7 bars hiring their staff for 12 months Doc 5 · p.2 .

In-house counsel

Does the residuals clause let us keep using what the team remembers?

Claude Sonnet 4.6

Yes — §4 carves out residual knowledge retained in memory Doc 5 · p.3 , so general know-how is not restricted, only documented materials.

Ask a what-if question

Work through a what-if before it is real.

Run a hypothetical — a reorg, a reclassification, a policy change — past the AI and your attorney together, in one session, before anyone acts on it.

Northwind · Employment · Privileged
Manager

If we reclassify the support team from hourly to salaried, what is our exposure?

GPT-5.5

Reclassification only holds if the roles meet an overtime exemption; the current duties in the job description look non-exempt Doc 8 · p.1 , so salaried treatment would risk unpaid-overtime claims.

In-house counsel

What would we need to change about the role to make an exemption defensible?

GPT-5.5

The role would need genuine discretion or authority — supervising staff or independent decisions, not just a salary Doc 8 · p.2 . Document the actual duties before reclassifying.

Privilege AI

One workspace for every AI session that has to stay privileged. Every model. Every matter.

Bring your own keys to OpenAI and Anthropic, or use a system key. Privilege AI is the matter-scoped workspace where employees and executives work with their attorney — recording the basis, the citations, the model route, and the audit chain, so the session supports a claim of privilege. Provisioned by your in-house legal team or outside firm, who stay in the loop.

Bring the model. Own the record.

Connect ChatGPT Enterprise or Claude for Work. Your sessions never train anyone else's model, and the record stays yours.

Counsel in the loop, on the record.

In-house counsel prompts the same AI in the session and reviews the basis. Every turn — you, counsel, and the model — is logged together.

Built around the matter, not the chat.

Sessions live inside a matter. Documents, work product, privilege log, and audit ledger are scoped to the matter and travel together.

Security and privilege

What keeps your session privileged and provable.

Privilege depends on showing the basis, the boundaries, and the chain. Privilege AI produces all three as a byproduct of using the product — it supports the claim, it does not assert privilege for you.

The basis.

The privilege basis (AC, WP, AC+WP) is logged at the message, with the rationale and the model route. You can see why each turn is privileged, and edit it.

The boundaries.

Sessions are scoped to a matter, tenant-isolated, and run on no-train endpoints. Customer matter content is not used to train any model, ours or a provider's.

The chain.

Every action — message, edit, view, export — is SHA-256 chained to the previous and verifiable from the UI. A non-dismissible banner appears if integrity ever breaks.

Bring AI into your matters. Keep the privilege.
