This is a glimpse at the future of legal AI agents. Taking a very specific task end-to-end and making it trivial for anyone to trigger.

Try It for Free

Users can access First Pass for free by creating an account at wordsmith.ai and then uploading the relevant agreement to the web, or simply email standard agreements—like NDAs—to nda@wordsmith.ai. Over the coming weeks, Wordsmith will be expanding this to many other agreement types.

End-to-End AI Analysis—More Than Just Contracting

What makes First Pass revolutionary is its AI-powered ability to handle the full process: from opening the email to classifying the document, analyzing key terms, flagging risks, marking up agreements, and preparing a follow-up—all without the need for special software. This makes it the fastest and simplest tool available for contract analysis.

Customizable for Your Team's Needs

For businesses that need tailored contract checks, Wordsmith provides advanced customization options. Teams can configure First Pass to flag specific risks or terms, with the option for legal teams to approve reviews where needed.

More Than Just Contract Review—A Suite of Productivity Tools

First Pass is just one of many powerful tools offered by Wordsmith. The platform also includes helpful features like full document translation for contracts in multiple languages, allowing businesses to handle international agreements with ease. Additionally, Wordsmith offers tools to auto-draft documents, respond to repetitive queries, and streamline workflows for maximum efficiency.

A New Era of Simple, Effective Contract Analysis

Tara Haig, the General Counsel from Multiverse, a European Unicorn, commented, “It understands nuanced legal language spread across different sections of agreements. The level of accuracy and detail is truly impressive.”

Viz.ai to Support the MINUTE Trial, a Landmark Multicenter Study Evaluating the SCUBA Technique for the Treatment of Intracerebral Hemorrhage15.7.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release

Viz.ai, the leader in AI-powered disease detection and intelligent care coordination, today announced its support for the Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery Trial for Ultra-early Treatment (MINUTE) Trial, a prospective, multicenter, randomized study evaluating whether the SCUBA technique, an endoscopic, catheter-based approach for ultra-early evacuation of basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage (BGH), is a promising alternative to standard medical management to potentially improve functional patient outcomes.

The Q2 findings reveal that fraud pressure continues to vary significantly by market, with the most notable shift occurring across the Middle East and Africa. The region's average prevented fraud rate more than doubled quarter over quarter, from 0.95% to 2.03% — the

Forrester’s 2027 Budget Planning Guides: After A Year Of Caution, Business And Tech Leaders Are Ready To Invest Again15.7.2026 12:00:00 EEST | Press release

According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) 2027 Budget Planning Guides, business and technology leaders are approaching 2027 with renewed confidence as they increasingly accept volatility as a permanent feature of the business environment. After a year of more cautious spending, more than 80% of leaders expect their budgets to increase over the next 12 months, with as many as one-quarter anticipating growth of 10% or more. But planning in the age of AI demands more than bigger budgets: Increasing investment without modernizing operating models, strengthening data foundations, and improving AI readiness will only accelerate fragmented data, duplicated work, and technical debt. To realize AI’s full potential, leaders must rethink their strategies and prioritize investments in operational foundations, governance, and experimentation that drive tangible outcomes. This year, optimism is widespread across functions: 82% of technology decision-makers and 91% of marketers expect budget increases

Post-Quantum’s Algorithm - Classic McEliece - Achieves Global ISO Standardization to Protect the World From Quantum Cyber Attack15.7.2026 11:00:00 EEST | Press release

It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s algorithm - a catastrophic event commonly known as Q-Day. Even before such a cryptographically relevant quantum computer emerges it is known that adversaries are stealing encrypted data now, which can be decrypted later - also known as Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL). Google’s recent use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimise Shor’s algorithm reduces the number of physical qubits required to break today’s encryption, therefore shortening the timeline to Q-Day. This has led prominent experts to estimate today’s encryption may be broken as-soon-as the next three years. It’s against this backdrop that the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) has included the Classic McEliece algorithm as part of its standard for Asymmetric Ciphers (ISO/IEC 18033-2). Organisations from ISO’s 177 member states can now upgrade to Classic McEliece using an international s
