TL;DR
What did @anessasantoslaw use Perplexity for?
A lawyer described a client dispute to Perplexity and got a full settlement and release draft, then had it draft a 31-page equipment purchase agreement and compared both with templates built over 23 years. They report a 7-page settlement draft they did not need to change and a 31-page purchase agreement with an exhibit, both of which they found accurate after careful review.
What they did
They explained an ongoing client dispute and asked Perplexity for a settlement and release agreement, then described an equipment purchase agreement for another client. They reviewed each draft against their own templates and standard legal forms.
How it went
They report a 7-page settlement draft they did not need to change and a 31-page purchase agreement with an exhibit, both of which they found accurate after careful review.
