No. LockDocOS uses non-AI, pattern-matching technology to identify contract files attached to your emails. It does not read, interpret, or analyze the content of your email messages.

Your contracts and documents remain yours. We do not read, access, or use them without the owner’s explicit authorization, and they can be retrieved at any time.

No. LockDocOS is a standalone contract lifecycle management platform, not a Microsoft Word add-in or plugin.

Those contracts can be edited, reviewed, commented on, signed, and managed directly in LockDocOS without installing a Word extension.

Keeping external collaboration within LockDocOS also ensures that edits, reviews, comments, approvals, and signatures remain centralized and fully traceable throughout the contract process.
