Compare clauses across two drafts

For ChatGPT

As a legal secretary, compare these two versions of [clause type — indemnification, IP assignment, governing law, etc.].

[paste]

Version B:

Email to opposing counsel

For Claude

Draft an email a legal secretary would send to opposing counsel about [issue]. Tone: professional, firm, non-adversarial unless context requires otherwise.

Avoid prose that could be screenshotted out of context.
