What prompts get reliable contract review out of ChatGPT or Claude?
Treat the model like a sharp junior associate: give it a role, the jurisdiction, your risk appetite, and a required output format, then work clause by clause instead of asking 'is this contract OK'. Ask for risk tables, plain-English summaries, market-standard comparisons, and specific negotiation asks. Verify anything that sounds like a legal citation, and never send AI output anywhere important unreviewed.
