## How It Works

The Chamelio Slack app connects your contract repository, policies, and playbooks directly to Slack channels. Business teams get instant answers while legal maintains full control and visibility.

* **Smart Legal Intake** — Create custom Flows starting with Slack forms for submitting tickets and requests to the legal team. Each form routes to the appropriate workflow.
* **Conversational Legal Assistant** — Add Chamelio to any Slack channel and mention @chamelio to ask legal questions. The AI searches your repository, policies, and playbooks to answer in the conversation thread.

<Warning>
  The app uses Large Language Models (LLMs), which may occasionally generate inaccurate responses. Always verify critical legal information.
</Warning>
