# Legal Tools

> Purpose-built tools for the work lawyers do every day - contract review, NDA triage, risk assessment, redlining, and more

Vaquill ships a suite of legal tools - each one purpose-built for a specific workflow that recurs in legal practice. Pick a tool from this overview, or activate one in chat by describing what you need ("triage this NDA", "redline this against our playbook", "compare these two leases").

For structured playbooks that combine tools and your firm's standards, see [Skills](/docs/guides/skills). For autonomous multi-tool research, see [Agent Mode](/docs/guides/agent-mode).
