YOUR CLIENT ALREADY REQUIRES THIS

Your client's guidelines require records of your AI use. Could you produce them tomorrow?

Where this stands today

This is already contractual and it is already enforceable. The Hartford's panel counsel guidelines, revised 20 April 2026, condition acceptance of any assignment on the firm's agreement to the AI terms, and that agreement survives the end of the relationship. The terms require the firm to keep records that allow AI usage to be reconstructed, to name the specific tool in the time entry itself, to permit an audit, and to indemnify the client for any breach.

The words that matter

"Maintain records (e.g., inputs, prompts, data and decisions) that allow for the recreation of generative AI usage" and "Permit The Hartford, or its third-party auditor, to audit Panel Counsel's use of generative AI and related billing."

What a record gives you

A reconstructable, auditable record is exactly what a receipt is, and it is made at the time rather than assembled when someone asks. It carries fingerprints and declarations, never your client's content, so it can be handed to an auditor without waiving anything.

Regulayer makes the record. Software on your own machine that signs, at the moment you finish, which tool you declared, which checks you ran and who reviewed the work. Your client, your insurer or the court checks it in seconds, free, with no account and no access to a word of your file.
