Wordsmith
Wordsmith is an Edinburgh-based legal AI platform built for in-house legal teams, marketed as a Slack-native legal copilot that lets non-legal staff self-serve compliant answers, templates, and contract reviews directly in the tools they already use. The product line includes the Wordsmith Assistant (a chat surface that answers routine legal questions, summarises documents, and runs contract review against organisation-specific Playbooks), Templates (parameterised DOCX/Markdown document generation with placeholder fields and fallback clause logic), Playbooks (codified review rules used to flag non-standard terms in NDAs, MSAs, DPAs and similar agreements and to propose pre-approved compromise positions), and a growing set of channel integrations centred on Slack, Microsoft Teams, Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft Word, Google Docs/Drive, SharePoint, OneDrive, Notion, Confluence, Dropbox, Salesforce, HubSpot, Attio, Ironclad, Juro, Asana, Monday.com, Jira, Linear, Granola, Google Sheets, and Excel, plus programmatic reach via an MCP server, Zapier, and n8n. Wordsmith exposes a public REST API documented at wordsmithai.mintlify.app with Bearer-token authentication and resources for Assistants (ask a question with optional file attachments, poll question status, list assistants available to the account), Files (presigned upload URLs for documents), Playbooks (list accessible review playbooks), Templates (list accessible templates), User (get-me for the authenticated user and organisation), plus signed Webhooks for asynchronous notifications. The company was founded in October 2023 by Ross McNairn (CEO, formerly Head of Product at Skyscanner and CPTO at TravelPerk), Robbie Falkenthal (COO), and Volodymyr Giginyak (CTO), is headquartered in Edinburgh with offices in London and New York, raised a $25M Series A from Index Ventures in June 2025 at a reported $100M valuation, and counts Trustpilot, Skyscanner, AutoTrader, Deliveroo, BT, Trip.com, Coursera, Canva, The Financial Times, Remote.com, Multiverse, and Docplanner among its customers. Pricing is published as an Individual plan at $450 per user per month and a custom Enterprise plan, with a 30-minute book-a-demo flow as the primary onboarding path. WORDSMITH is a registered trade mark of Wordsmith Law LLP and is used under licence by Wordsmith AI.
