🔧 Improvements

• The Files page now lists folders and files together, with tags in their own column.

🔧 Improvements

• The agent now drafts and reviews leases, investment documents and data processing agreements, checking each against a playbook of legal standards for that type of document.

• The template library no longer shows the same template more than once.

🐞 Fixes

• Template category pages now remember whether you chose list or grid view.

✨ New Features

🏠 What needs you, the moment you sign in.

The first screen after you sign in greets you and says what is waiting: contracts expiring soon, documents pending signature, and anything on your list to deal with. Each is a link. Recent files, chats and contacts sit underneath, with the composer ready when you want to start something.

✍️ Choose how the agent's changes land.

When the agent proposes an edit you can apply it as a tracked change, as a direct edit, or turn it into a comment. If it has already made the change, the card asks whether to keep it, so the decision is always yours.

🔧 Improvements

• The editor toolbar is regrouped: lists, alignment and text styles each sit in one group, with the rest under More options.
• Memory is now called Knowledge, and your contacts live alongside it.

• Documents the agent creates for you arrive finished, whichever mode you are in, rather than as a set of changes to accept.
• The safety check no longer stops ordinary legal work.
• Scanned PDFs open after you upload them.

✨ New Features

🤖 A new AI agent

⚡ More hands on the job

The agent now puts several specialists on your work at once, so the bigger jobs come back sooner.

🧩 Ready for what's next

The new foundation is built to take on new tools, so the agent can handle more of your legal work as we add them.

• Dismiss notifications from the feed, and jump straight to the comment thread behind one.
• Contacts now live on a single page, and your dashboard opens on your recent files.

• Import files straight from Google Drive.

• Starter prompts now match your jurisdiction.
• "Help me decide" opens a guided wizard when you're not sure which document you need.
• Added a press releases section, and made GitLaw pages render properly for search engines and AI assistants.

🐞 Fixes

• The notification badge now only counts alerts that have something to show.
• Documents waiting on a signature show that status in the document info panel.
• Fixed nested folder listings, template scrolling, and toolbar focus.

🏢 Everyone gets an organisation

Every GitLaw account is now an organisation from day one - a team of one until you invite someone. Keep separate organisations for your personal life and each business, so your files and context stay apart. No separate accounts, no migration. Read the announcement.

🤝 Sharing is always free

Share a file, folder, or matter with anyone at another organisation - they work from their own account, with their own credits, and are never billed to you. On every plan, including Free.

💳 Simpler pricing

Two self-serve plans - Free and Pro (priced per seat) - plus a sales-led Enterprise. Mix free and paid members in one organisation, and top up AI credits when you need to (top-ups roll over). Already subscribed? You keep the rate you signed up on. See what's changing.

📚 New help articles

Fresh guides on organisations, roles, the new pricing, AI credits & top-ups, and who can see what. Browse the knowledge base.
