How I Use AI in Zoho Contracts to Save Hours on Client Agreements

09.09.25 06:10 PM

If you're running a small business, then you’re probably wearing more hats than you ever imagined: sales rep, admin assistant, legal counsel, and—somehow—HR too. One of the most annoying tasks that kept stealing my time? Writing client contracts.

I used to waste hours Googling sample agreements, copying old text, and tweaking things that never quite sounded right. And honestly, I still wasn’t sure if they were legally solid.

That’s why I was so excited when I discovered the OpenAI integration inside Zoho Contracts.

What It Does

When you create a contract in Zoho Contracts, there’s now an “AI Assistant” right inside the editor. Just click the button and it can:
  • Draft full contract text
  • Suggest relevant clauses based on your context
  • Review what you’ve written and flag potential issues

It’s like having a legal-minded writing assistant without the $300/hour invoice.

How I Use It in Real Life

My favorite trick? I use the AI assistant to outline key obligations in my service contracts—then use that info to build out a project timeline in Zoho Projects. That means I’m not just saving time drafting contracts, I’m also streamlining the entire onboarding workflow.

Why It Matters for Small Businesses

Let’s be honest—if you’re a solopreneur or small team, you don’t have time to reinvent the wheel for every client. And you definitely don’t want to sound unprofessional or miss important legal details. AI helps you get it right the first time, without the guesswork.

Bottom Line

AI in Zoho Contracts gives you a head start on writing great client agreements—so you can get back to doing the work you love.
