Reviewing contracts is rarely a solo task. And one of the biggest headaches for collaborative teams is losing track of who said what, and why.
Whether you’re updating clauses, aligning on legal language, or double-checking compliance risks, there are usually multiple stakeholders involved: in-house counsel, external advisors, finance, or procurement.
Collecting feedback often turns into a messy mix of emails, Word docs, tracked changes, and Slack threads, without any real context.
Tools like Google Docs or spreadsheets might seem handy, but they rarely show the full picture. And when important info is scattered across PDFs, emails, and legal websites, it’s hard to keep everyone aligned.
With Collabwriting, you can quickly capture, refine, and organize what you need, and where you need it.
Keep your team in sync
Ever needed just a few key sentences from a massive PDF - but ended up sending your colleague the whole document with a message:
’’Page 15, second paragraph under the graph on the left…’’ ?
With Collabwriting, you can highlight exactly what matters, leave comments, and keep everything organized - all in one place, with context.
Click on Collabwriting's extension icon in the top right
The ’’Open in Collabwriting’’ button will appear
Click on it
The PDF will open in a new window, where you can create highlights and leave notes
Even better?
You can combine snippets from online PDFs and uploaded ones, websites, and YouTube videos under one Topic - so all your insights stay connected, clear, and easy to act on.
Only need to share a few key points - not the whole PDF?
Just send them a Cowrite link with all your saved snippets. If they need more context, they can easily locate the exact spot in the original document.
Or @mention them directly under any snippet via Slack or email - they’ll get notified right away, with everything they need in one place.
Structure your sources
Your and your team's insights are too valuable to lose.
Collabwriting helps you keep everything organized and easy to find - with structure, context, and control.
Workspaces give your entire legal team a shared space to manage insights across ongoing matters or practice areas.
Clusters let you group Topics by case, regulation, client, or jurisdiction. Assign access at the cluster level to keep sensitive work organized and properly scoped.
Topics are where you save specific highlights from legal documents, rulings, and webpages. Invite colleagues, clients, or subject-matter experts to review and comment with View, Comment, or Edit permissions.
With #tags, you can easily categorize and retrieve key insights, whether it's #GDPR, #IP, or #compliance. Add them directly to a snippet or include them in a comment - they’ll be searchable either way.
Make knowledge reusable
Every snippet you save in Collabwriting is searchable, shareable, and connected to its original source.
Use it again in a different case, share it with a colleague, or reference it in a new document - without starting from scratch.
Exporting options:
Copy to: Create an exact duplicate of a Topic, including all comments if you want, and even save it to a different workspace.
Copy snippets: Copy all snippets from a Topic (comments included) and paste them directly into apps like Google Docs, Word, Notion, or any other editor you use.
Download CSV: Export your entire Topic as a CSV file. Open it easily in Google Sheets, Excel, or any data-friendly app to organize or analyze your snippets.
Print: Save all snippets and comments as a PDF or send them straight to your printer for a hard copy.
Drag & Drop: Quickly drag snippets directly from Collabwriting into apps like Gmail, Notion, or Google Docs for easy sharing and editing without extra steps.
📌 Work better together - on contracts, compliance, and everything in between.
