How Customers Are Already Using Persi: The Top 5 Prompts Driving Value

Persi, PERSUIT’s new AI agent for outside counsel management, marks a major step forward in how legal teams evaluate, engage, and manage their law firms. But the most exciting part? Persi is already delivering real-world value. A select group of alpha customers has started to integrate Persi into their workflow—unlocking efficiencies, improving scoping accuracy, and accelerating decision-making across the matter lifecycle. 

As teams begin to explore Persi’s interface, several prompts have emerged as clear winners when it comes to delivering value. Below, we break down the top five most-used prompts and why they're resonating with customers.

1. Improved RFP Scoping

Prompt example:
“What assumptions should be included in this RFP?”

Why it's resonating: Scoping is an area where even seasoned teams can struggle with consistency. Persi brings together historical data, market benchmarks, and PERSUIT’s pricing intelligence to produce scopes that are both comprehensive and commercially informed. Alpha users are generating complete RFPs—including alternative fee model recommendations—in minutes, not hours.

2. Faster RFP Drafting

Prompt example:
“Please draft an RFP for the following scope of work: [scope details]. Suggest firms who can support it and the best pricing model for each phase.”

Why it's resonating: With one prompt, Persi drafts a full RFP and suggests the right firms and pricing models, saving teams hours of manual work.

3. Comprehensive Analytics & Tracking

Prompt example:
“What are our year-to-date RFP metrics?”

Why it's resonating: Instead of hunting through dashboards or manually pulling reports, customers simply ask Persi. Whether it's savings, diversity participation, cycle times, or firm performance data, Persi responds instantly. Legal teams are using this for internal reporting, quarterly business reviews, and strategic planning—all without needing to run a single export.

4. Business Rules & Governance

Prompt example:
“Please set up a business rule so that for all RFPs, at least one firm from our Global Panel or IP Panel must be invited.”

Why it's resonating: Persi helps legal teams encode their policies into the workflow—ensuring compliance without forcing users to memorize rules or navigate complicated settings. This prompt is especially popular among teams rolling out new panels or revisiting their firm strategy.

5. Precise Firm Selection

Prompt example:
“We need to engage local counsel in [Country] for a joint venture in [State/Region]. Which firms can handle this type of work?”

Why it's resonating: In-house teams often need quick insight into the right firms for unfamiliar regions or one-off cross-border matters. This prompt makes that easy by instantly surfacing which firms are qualified, where they’re located, and why they’re a good fit—without the time-consuming effort of searching through old files or tracking down historical knowledge.

As Persi continues to learn from customer workflows and incorporate more of your institutional knowledge, its value compounds—unlocking faster decisions, smarter matter management, and more consistent outcomes across the legal department.
