Pitfalls to watch at work
Claude
- On the free and personal paid plans, check Settings, Privacy: training on chats should be off before a work document goes in
- Contracts and correspondence go in only with parties, amounts and details anonymized: [Buyer], [Supplier], [amount]
- The limit is measured by conversation size rather than message count: a long chat with a large file uses up the quota in a few questions, so open a separate chat for each document
Humata
- A contract archive with parties and amounts in a third-party cloud needs a data processing agreement: without one, upload anonymized or public documents
- The limit is counted in pages and large scans burn through it fast: upload one file first and check the quality
- An answer across hundreds of documents may mix up terms from different contracts: check which file the highlighted passage comes from
