The workflow is delicate by design
Privilege determinations and work-product judgments are human legal conclusions. AI can assist with organization, candidate flagging, and draft log rows. It should not decide privilege without lawyer review.
Where private AI helps
On controlled infrastructure, models can cluster communications, draft candidate privilege log entries for attorney review, and surface anomalies while keeping the corpus inside the firm's custody boundary.
- Human sign-off on every privilege call
- Exportable logs for production
- No training on client data by third parties
What to refuse
Refuse any workflow that requires uploading a privilege set to an unapproved consumer chatbot. A vendor that cannot meet the firm's custody requirements should not receive the corpus.

We can map candidate flagging, attorney sign-off, export, and audit requirements.
