Robin

Robin was the AI contract review and drafting platform built by London-based Robin AI, pairing a Microsoft Word copilot with lawyer-in-the-loop managed review for in-house legal teams. The business wound down across late 2025 and early 2026 after a funding round collapsed, and the product is no longer sold, so this entry records what it did and where its capabilities went.

Key features of Robin include:

• Copilot for Word: A Microsoft Word add-in drafted, summarised and redlined contract language in the document, giving lawyers AI assistance without leaving their normal drafting environment.
• AI Contract Review: Models trained on large clause libraries flagged risk, compared terms against a party's standard positions and generated suggested redlines for negotiation.
• Clause Compare: Side-by-side clause comparison showed how a counterparty draft diverged from a reference agreement or precedent, focusing reviewers on the material differences.
• Managed Review Service: A lawyer-in-the-loop managed service absorbed overflow contract review at agreed turnaround times; that operation transferred to the law firm Scissero in December 2025.
• Contract Search: AI-assisted search across executed agreements answered portfolio questions, such as which contracts carried a given termination, indemnity or liability term.

Best for: Historical reference only, as the platform previously served in-house legal teams at mid-market and enterprise companies handling high-volume commercial contract review.

Robin proved out the AI-plus-managed-service model for contract review, but it cannot be procured today. Legal teams evaluating this category should look to Scissero for managed review or to established AI drafting platforms and Microsoft's own legal features in Word.
