Use Cases
These are some ways you can ask Copilot questions
Not only can you ask Copilot questions that require advanced pattern-matching, but also questions that require mathematical analysis of results from such queries. The following examples demonstrate some of these capabilities.
Direct Question
You can ask Copilot direct questions about a document:
- Does this contract have an arbitration clause?
- What is the governing jurisdiction for this agreement?
Counts
Copilot can count the number of records matching specific criteria:
- How many agreements do we have with this vendor?
- How many contracts expire this quarter?
Copilot can answer questions that require simple mathematical analyses, such as sums and differences, averages and means, and minimum and maximum values.
Sums
- What is the total contract value for all MSAs with this customer?
- What is the total approved amount for all invoices with a "completed" status?
Differences
How much of a price break did this customer get from FY 2024 to FY 2025?Averages
- What is the average deal size for new contracts signed this year?
- Show me the average discount rate for new deals that reach completion.
Maximum
What is the largest legal claim limit in any of our existing vendor contracts?Minimum
- What is the shortest termination notice period across all our standard MSA templates?
- What is the best per-unit price we have given this customer?
You can also ask Copilot to group records by one or more characteristics:
Grouping
- Show the count of agreements, grouped by vendor.
- Show the average contract value by sales region.
