We’re excited to announce the launch of our new, cutting-edge On-Demand course: Best AI and Other Software for Contract Professionals. Fresh off a successful inaugural launch as a live webinar in May, David Tollen’s content is not to be missed by professionals working with contracts involving technology – especially AI. And isn’t that just about all of us now (like it or not)?
In just over an hour, David digs into the state of the industry: How is generative AI doing with contract drafting and negotiating? What problems does it solve, what new risks does it create? Which AI should we consider using for contracting – and how? And the course isn’t just about gen-AI; David addresses other vital contracting tools. All based on his experiments with up-to-the minute software offerings.

What else to know about the course:
- David shares impartial observations and practical tips. It is not a sales pitch for particular software, and was not sponsored by any vendor.
- Enroll and receive access to (a) the recently recorded On-Demand content for 100 days, so you can start, pause, and revisit on your schedule, (b) the slides, and (c) a certificate of attendance.
- For lawyers licensed in California – this course even satisfies the one hour CLE subfield: Technology in the Practice of Law.
Topics include:
- The key gen-AI contract drafting and review tools
- Other artificial intelligence options, like benchmarking and applications of agentic AI
- Recommendations on the best of those tools and how to use them
- Open source and standards-based contracting
- AI’s future and its impact on our careers
- And more …
Not sure? We know your time and training dollars are valuable. Feel free to check out a complimentary sample lesson here. And you can read David’s blogs, including what he learned while preparing for this course, here:
- Alert: Your Contract Drafting AI Could Do More Harm Than Good Because of Bad “Playbooks”
- The Patterns of Errors From AI Contracting Systems
- What’s agentic AI, and how does it compare to typical gen-AI for contracting?
- “Social Loafing” and the Problem It Creates for Contracting AI
Still on the fence? Here’s what some recent Best AI trainees had to say about their experience:
“Very useful and insightful training.”
“[G]ood framing of what to consider when evaluating AI contract tools. Very helpful to have names of tools and comments on what they do.”
We hope to see you at Best AI and other Software for Contract Professionals soon!
