Agentic Playbook Creation in Assistant

What’s New

Playbook managers can now create, upload, and edit playbooks directly through Harvey Assistant. This update introduces a more flexible, conversational approach to building and maintaining playbooks, reducing the need for manual, form-based workflows. You can now:

• Create and edit playbooks conversationally, with guidance in Assistant
• View a live side-by-side panel during creation to track rules and structure in real time
• Use playbooks as a knowledge source in Assistant for context-aware guidance
• Switch seamlessly between Assistant and the standard editor for manual adjustments and governance

Why It Matters

This release enables your teams to generate high-quality, precise first drafts more quickly and iterate on positions with less effort.

How to Use

Creating and Editing Playbooks with Assistant

Begin in Assistant by describing in natural language the new playbook or updates you’d like to make, or, engage Assistant while editing Playbooks in Settings.

For full how-to steps, refer to Create a Playbook.

Using a Playbook as a Source

When selecting a source in Assistant, you can now add a Playbook.

This can be useful for checking positions (e.g., “What’s our fallback on liability caps?”), or receiving AI guidance on how to understand positions and adjust rules, based on the Playbook.
