# Overview of the Word Add-In
What the Jurisphere Word Add-In does, its four core capabilities, and how to decide which one to reach for.
The Jurisphere Word Add-In brings Jurisphere directly into your Microsoft Word application. A panel on the right side of your Word document lets you review, draft, run Skills, and apply Review Playbooks, all without switching to a browser, re-uploading your file, or losing your place in the document.
## Capabilities
Review your document
**Query your document the way you would on the web Ask Juris tool** **-**
Analyze clauses, summarize key terms, and identify risks or obligations. \
Ask follow-up questions to dig deeper, so each query builds on the last.
Draft & Edit
**Generate edits to revise your document -**
Each edit is categorized such as *insertion*, *deletion*, *rewrite*, or *replacement.* It comes with a short summary explaining the change. Review each suggestion, then accept or dismiss it with full control over your document.
Skills
**Run pre-built, one-click legal skills directly on your open document -**
Skills are built and approved by expert lawyers for specific, repeatable tasks — contract reviews, clause standardization, compliance checks — so you don't have to re-prompt from scratch every time.
Review Playbooks
**Apply your team's clause-by-clause review standards automatically -**
A Review Playbook captures your ideal position, acceptable fallbacks, and language that should always be flagged. It is created once on the web platform, then reused across every matter from inside Word.

## What you can do
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
### Open the panel and set your scope
Click **Ask questions or make changes to the document** in the Word ribbon. Choose **Whole Document** for broad questions, or highlight text first for **Selection Only**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Ask, draft, run a pre-built skill, or run a Review Playbook
Type your instruction in plain language, or pick a pre-built skills below the prompt box. Press **Tab** to trigger [Prompt Enhancement](/jurisphere-word-add-in/help-section/errors-and-faqs/prompt-enhancement.md) if you're not sure how to phrase the task.
Once you’ve created a Review Playbook, you can find it under the “**Review Playbooks**” section in the Word add-in. Simply open the document you want to review and run the review playbook on it.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Review what comes back
Responses include inline citations linking straight back to the relevant part of your document, click one to jump there and verify.
Suggested edits arrive individually, each with **Show in Document**, **Apply**, **Apply with Comment** and **Dismiss**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Iterate by asking a follow-up
Jurisphere keeps the full context of the conversation, so "make it mutual" or "now add a carve-out for fraud" builds on what came before rather than starting over.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://help.jurisphere.ai/jurisphere-word-add-in/getting-started/overview-of-the-word-add-in.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
