Frequently Asked Questions
Where does Spellbook’s data come from?
Where does Spellbook’s data come from?
Spellbook extracts high-level statistical insights from contracts processed daily — for example, “average payment terms in software agreements”. It is always aggregated & anonymous – we never surface individual contract data. Statistics are shared back with users in a summarized form. No names, addresses, IDs, or other personal info is collected.
How does it work?
How does it work?
When someone opens a document in Spellbook, it will capture high-level document data (e.g., “this NDA is mutual”). Spellbook then aggregates this across thousands of documents to produce aggregate insights like: “X% of NDAs have mutual structure”.
Market insights are only displayed to users if there’s a threshold of similar documents, ensuring complete anonymity.
What if we need zero data retention for security approval?
What if we need zero data retention for security approval?
Zero Data Retention is respected at the LLM level. Spellbook does not share any client-identifiable information used to improve market insights. All data is fully anonymized and aggregated before being presented as a statistical market insight. We temporarily access document text to provide features, but never attach client-specific data to the aggregated market data.
