Big things are on the horizon, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! While we’re gearing up for some major feature rollouts in the coming weeks, we couldn’t resist giving you a little teaser of what’s to come. So today, we’re excited to announce the release of DraftCheck v2.9! This update may be a point release, but it’s packed…
Legal documents often contain important contact information and references to external resources, such as email addresses and web links. Keeping track of these details can be challenging, especially when they are scattered throughout a lengthy document. DraftCheck, an add-in for Microsoft Word and browser extension for Google Docs, simplifies this process with its email and…
