Table Fundamentals: Key Features and Benefits

Tables in Robin’s Legal Intelligence Platform provides a fast, structured way to extract key information from contracts at scale. Instead of manually reviewing lengthy agreements, users can generate structured insights in minutes, helping streamline due diligence, compliance checks, risk assessments, and more.

What Are Robin Tables?

Tables are customizable, AI-powered contract analysis. Instead of reading documents line by line, you can use tables to:

• Extract key data points and obligations across one or many contracts
• Summarize and compare terms, risks, or compliance issues quickly
• Categorize information for audits, reviews, and business decision-making

Key Benefits

• Speed & Efficiency: Generate insights in minutes—not hours.
• Scalability: Analyze a single document or large datasets at once with ease.
• Customization: Use ready-made templates or tailor them to specific contract needs.
• Accuracy & Transparency: Verify outputs with clickable citations linking directly to the original contract.

How to Build a Table

1. Select a Table Type

• Template: Start with a pre-built template designed for common use cases (e.g., Due Diligence, MSA Risk Review).
• Customize a Template: Adjust existing templates to add, remove, or edit prompts based on your needs.
• Create from a Template from scratch:  Build your own by selecting topics and adding tailored prompts.

2. Add Prompts & Prompt Names

• Prompts guide the AI to extract relevant contract insights (e.g., “Does the contract require notice before termination?”).
• Prompt Names are sections within your table (e.g., Indemnities, Renewal Clauses, Payment Terms).

3. Choose the right Answer Formats

Robin AI provides multiple answer formats to ensure results are formatted correctly:

• Text (Summary): For short, cited overviews (e.g., explanation of rights or obligations).
• Text (Word or Phrase): For quick references or terms.
• Yes/No: For clear, binary answers.
• Date, Number, Currency, Duration, Percentage: To capture specifics.
• Select/Multi-Select: For standardized responses from a list.

Tip: Use structured answer types when comparing data at scale; use text for more nuanced answers.

4. Preview Answers to refine your prompts

Before running the full table, preview answers in real-time to:

• Adjust prompts for clarity.
• Test different answer formats to ensure the best output format.
• Reduce trial and error when refining tables.

5. Generate and Review the Table

• Run your table on single or multiple contracts.
• Verify outputs with citations linking directly to contract clauses.
• Share reports with internal teams for review and collaboration.

Best Practices

• Write clear, direct prompts Write your prompt as if you were instructing a junior lawyer, your intended output should be clear.
• Leverage answer previews - Iteratively refine your prompts and answer formats before running the full able to improve accuracy and relevance.
• Choose the Right Answer Format – Select structured outputs (Yes/No, numeric values, select options) when sorting and filtering data at scale.
• Verify Results Using Citations - Clickable links help confirm that extracted answers match the original contract language.
• Customize Templates for Repeated Use – Modify prompt set templates to fit your specific contract workflows and ensure consistency across reviews.
• Export to Excel for large-scale projects. Filter and sort results to speed up contract review.
