AI agent for legal operations managers
Manager Decision Brief Agent
Decision briefs where options are comparable and assumptions visible.
What it does
Decision requests often reach managers with options that cannot be compared and with hidden assumptions. When a decision request arrives, this agent maps the criteria that matter for the choice. It checks the evidence for each option, starting with the facts that could change the outcome. It makes options comparable, for example by using the same cost period and timeline for each. Where data is missing, it states the gap rather than filling it. Unsupported assumptions are listed explicitly. It writes a decision brief and the manager decides. Edge case: one vendor quote is annual and another is monthly with a setup fee, so the agent normalizes both to three-year cost.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
