An example prompt for a contract tracker

Build a contract repository with renewal reminders for an in-house legal team. It needs: firms, departments and clients, counsel, requester and approver roles, document versions and comparison, templates and clause library, contract approval workflow and signing ceremony. Rule that must always hold: documents, search and audit queries join matter_members in RLS; admin role does not bypass confidential matters. Leave out for now: no AI legal advice or automated contract approval and no qualified electronic signatures in phase 1.

Replace the first sentence with your own idea. The list of needs stays useful whatever the niche, because it comes from what a contract tracker has to do.

• Build a clause library and approval flow for a small law firm. Start with firms, departments and clients and counsel, requester and approver roles, and add document versions and comparison once those work.
• Build a matter and obligations tracker for a procurement team. People should be able to draft quickly from approved language.

Forge AI picks a reference architecture from how you describe the app. These phrases point to a contract tracker: contract management, contract lifecycle, clm, legal operations, legal ops, matter management, law firm software and e-signature.

• Matter membership as the access gate in RLS.
• Approvals and signatures bind to a document version hash.
• Built-in simple e-signature before a provider integration.

This is a reference design for the category, not a promise that every item is generated today. Built-ins such as background jobs, file uploads and search are rolling out; email sent from your app is coming soon, so anything here that needs it is something you add yourself for now.

• OCR for scanned documents: adds a heavy batch runtime.
• Qualified/advanced e-signature provider: regulated trust service.
• AI clause extraction: needs review workflow and budget.
• Dedicated search engine: Postgres FTS suffices at launch.

How detailed should a prompt for a contract tracker be?

Name the users, the main objects, one rule that must always hold and one thing to leave out. The plan fills in the rest, and you can change it before generation.

Can I change the app after the first build?

Yes. Describe the change in plain English and Forge AI edits the app; the quality gate checks the code again.
