Cutting Legal Costs by 90%: Shahin Scales Faster with Legal-Grade™ AI

Enabling Fast Growth with Legal-Grade^TM AI 

As a rapidly scaling business in the electric mobility sector, Shahin’s lean legal team was overwhelmed by contract volumes. From NDAs to Lease and Agency Agreements, routine negotiations were taking weeks—forcing the company to outsource legal work at a high cost. 

To streamline operations and reduce legal expenses, Shahin turned to Luminance’s Legal-Grade^TM AI. 

Negotiating Faster with AI-Powered Reviews 

Shahin started by implementing Luminance’s Traffic Light Analysis (TLA), which automatically reviews incoming contracts and flags compliant (green) and non-compliant (red) language based on the company’s internal standards. When necessary, Luminance suggests approved alternative wording from Shahin’s precedent bank, which can be inserted with a click from within Microsoft Word. 

This means contracts like NDAs can now be reviewed and returned to counterparties within hours. The improved turnaround time has not only impressed Shahin’s business partners—it’s also reduced monthly outside counsel costs from 20,000 AED to just 20,000 AED annually. 

Answering Contract Questions Instantly with Ask Lumi 

With Ask Lumi, Luminance’s AI-powered chatbot, Shahin’s team can get instant answers to pressing legal questions—right within Word. Whether it’s “What are the liability provisions?” or “Who are the parties to this agreement?” Luminance provides legally accurate summaries on demand. 

Shahin’s COO now uses Ask Lumi live in meetings with the executive team to surface key contract details—no more Control+F searches or follow-up emails. He can simply ask for an executive summary, review key clauses, and deliver fast, informed decisions to leadership. 

Ask Lumi also goes beyond Q&A: when Luminance flags non-compliant clauses, the team can ask the AI to draft new language instantly, cutting the time spent searching for precedent wording and further reducing reliance on outside counsel. 

Freeing Up Resources to Focus on Growth 

By automating contract review and negotiation, Shahin has saved 200,000 AED annually and reallocated legal time to high-impact, strategic work. Luminance has become embedded in daily operations—supporting smarter, faster deal-making across the business.
