Built-in workflows

Twenty-five workflows ship with Vaquill. Each one is a maintained pipeline with its own document slots, typed input form, orchestration, and fixed artifact set. You do not configure them; you feed them and collect the output. They split into two gallery categories, In-House and Litigation, and are further grouped here by the job they do.

How to read a workflow page

Every page follows the same shape:

What it is for

The specific scenario the workflow was built around.

What you need

Its document slots: which roles, how many documents each accepts, and whether the slot is required.

Inputs

Every field on the launcher form, its type, whether it is required, its options, and what changing it actually does to the output.

How it runs

The pipeline stages, named the same way the live progress view names them.

What you get

Every artifact, its format, and its contents.

What it will not do

The explicit limitations. Read this before you decide the workflow is the right tool.

Two shared pipeline shapes

Most workflows are one of two patterns, which is worth knowing because it tells you how they scale.

Matrix review

prepare → extract → wait for extraction → normalize and score → synthesize → renderBuilds an extraction matrix over the document set, answers every cell, scores each document, then synthesizes across the portfolio and verifies that synthesis. Scales to hundreds of documents.

Drafting

prepare → generate → exportGathers context from the reference documents and your form answers, generates the instrument, and exports DOCX. Fast, single-output, jurisdiction-aware.

The remaining workflows, including the agentic ones and the jurisdiction comparison, have bespoke pipelines documented on their own pages.

Cost and scale

Workflow runs are not billed per run. There is no per-run charge, no credit deduction, and no separate workflow quota. Every workflow here is covered by your subscription, so running M&A Due Diligence across a 200-document data room costs the same as running Document Triage on one file. See Plans, trial, and limits. What does vary is time, and that is worth planning around.

Portfolio size	What to expect
1-10 documents	The low end of the runtime range on each page. Fine to wait for.
10-50 documents	The high end of the range. Launch it and come back.
50-200+ documents	Use a workflow built for it. Six run on a dedicated queue with a two-hour ceiling: Compliance Scan Agent, Matter Triage Agent, Obligations Tracker, Deposition Analyzer, Privilege Log Builder, and M&A Due Diligence.

Three levers control noise and runtime on large sets:

Materiality thresholds. M&A Due Diligence and Obligations Tracker summarize below-threshold findings in aggregate instead of itemizing them.
Focus areas. M&A Due Diligence runs five domain specialists by default; picking a subset skips the rest entirely.
Regime scoping. Compliance Scan Agent sweeps every applicable regime unless you narrow it.

A run in flight when a trial lapses will not finish. Start long-running workflows with time to spare.

Jurisdiction

Most workflows are US-only. A handful, listed on their own pages, accept any jurisdiction. Nothing in the catalogue is India-specific: the corpus and the drafting defaults are US.
