NOT REALLY

why this verdict

Keep it — Anthropic has not replaced it

Anthropic's version overlaps, but does not finish the legal job, so this one is still worth keeping open.

A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
AI contract drafting making bespoke agreements cheap enough that standards seem unnecessary. Anthropic, June 25, 2025 — no announcement link recorded yet.
How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
Is there a free way to do it? paid only
3 replacements listed, all paid.
What the call is worth nothing to cancel
No paid entry tier tracked, so there is no subscription to cancel.
Reason composed from the fields above missing: announcement linked missing: free replacement listed recorded: two or more escape hatches

The backstory

Common Paper publishes free standard agreements for software sales, so a startup can send a cloud service agreement that a buyer's counsel recognises rather than a bespoke document that triggers a three-week redline. AI can draft a custom contract instantly, which sounds like it removes the need for standards. It does the opposite: the bottleneck was never drafting, it was the other side's lawyer reading it, and a recognised standard is the only thing that shortens that.
