Automating Legal Work with Zapier + Wordsmith

In this step-by-step tutorial, Elly Meenan, Legal Ops Engineer at Wordsmith AI, shows you how to build a simple automation in Zapier that connects Jira and Wordsmith.

You’ll learn how to:

• Set up a Zapier trigger to capture new legal requests from Jira
• Send those requests to Wordsmith to generate tailored responses
• Automatically publish answers back into Jira as comments
• Close tickets by updating their status to “Done”

This is a practical example of how legal teams can reduce repetitive work, respond faster, and integrate AI into existing workflows—without writing a single line of code.

This is for in-house legal teams, legal ops professionals, and anyone looking to experiment with low-code AI-powered automations.
