# Clausebook Help Center | LeasePilot [Help index](/resources/help#step-throughs)03 · Draft Step-through # Clausebook Your fallback language, organized inside the document, one click to insert. Workflow Draft Format Reference Read time 3 min Walkthrough in production We’re still drafting this one. For a live walkthrough on your forms, ask the team that built your platform. The fallback language your team has refined over years of deals — preferred carve-outs, alternate definitions, the version of an indemnity that's been winning negotiations for a decade — usually lives in a folder a senior associate has been maintaining by hand. When a deal needs it, someone has to find the right file, copy the right version, and paste it into the right spot. Clausebook puts that library inside the document panel, so insertion is one click instead of a hunt. ## 01What's in your clausebook Your encoded form covers the language that belongs in _every_ draft. Clausebook covers the language that belongs in _some_ drafts: fallback positions, alternate carve-outs, optional riders, the version of a clause you reach for when a counterparty pushes back. It's where you keep the multiple versions of the same provision that real negotiations require — a tighter assignment clause, a looser one, and the one you actually expect to land on. Clauses live in folders so the structure can mirror the way your team thinks about provisions. If your team maintains more than one clausebook (often one per form, though you can structure it however helps), the dropdown at the top of the panel switches between them. ## 02Inserting a clause Two ways to find what you're looking for: 1. i.**Browse the tree.** Expand a folder, find the clause, click it. The selected clause expands inline with a _Description_ note and the full _Clause Preview_ below it. 2. ii.**Fuzzy search.** Type into the **Search Clauses or Folders** box. Matches happen across folder names and clause text, so you can find a clause by what's in it, not just what it's called. Once the right clause is in front of you, place the caret in the document where you want the language to land, click **Insert**, and it's there. The clause carries the formatting it was saved with. > Note**Star the clauses you reach for repeatedly.** The star next to each clause and folder marks favorites — small on a quiet day, useful on a busy one when you're inserting the same fallback ten times. ## 03Maintaining your clausebook Clausebook is self-onboarding. Your team adds clauses, renames them, restructures folders, and retires what's no longer used, all without help from us. Most teams populate their clausebook themselves; if you'd rather we help (pull in a folder structure from a network drive, dedupe versions, suggest a hierarchy), your implementation team will do that with you. After that, the library is yours to keep current. > Note**Encoded form vs. clausebook.** Language that belongs in _every_ draft of a given form is encoded into the form itself; updates to that language are made by a [Form Manager](/resources/help/demos/forms) for static prose, or by your implementation team for anything tied to conditional logic. Language that belongs in _some_ drafts goes in the clausebook, where any drafter can reach for it. * * * For prose that doesn't fit either path — a one-off paragraph negotiated for a single deal — see [text editing](/resources/help/demos/text-editing). To draft _new_ language with AI assistance instead of inserting saved language, see [Autopilot](/resources/help/demos/autopilot-intro).
