Lavender: Scores a sales email before you send it and shows how to make it shorter and more personal.

Spellbook: Lawyer's assistant in Word: tracked-change edits, missing clauses and risks.

The score is tuned to English-language emails for the US market and is unreliable for other languages
The extension reads the mailbox it runs in: turn it off in a mailbox with confidential correspondence
A high score does not guarantee a reply: track your reply rate yourself

Spellbook takes market standards from common law practice: edit clauses on jurisdiction, penalties and currency for your governing law yourself
Review every tracked change before accepting: a bulk "accept all" brings the other side's positions into the contract
Contracts with real parties are processed in the cloud: check the vendor's confidentiality terms before the first client contract
