Abstract
Aspects discussed herein may relate to using machine learning models as part of methods and techniques for ingesting, creating, storing, editing, and managing a document. The document may be a legal contract that includes one or more clauses. Among other things, one or more machine learning models may be configured to recognize clauses and/or classifications, or types, of clauses. For example, the one or more generative language models may be used to generate one or more recommended edits to a clause, generate one or more suggested clauses that are missing from the contract, and/or generate one or more suggested locations where a clause may be inserted into or moved within the contract.
