# Checked Law — IT / MSP deployment guide

One-page guide for deploying Checked Law to a law firm's Microsoft 365 tenant.

## What Checked Law is

A Word task pane add-in for legal document QA. Lawyers mark dates, citations, and claims; record approve/reject verdicts; and maintain a tamper-evident audit trail **inside the .docx file**.

**Important:** Document content is never sent to Checked Law servers. Only license verification calls (email + license status) reach our API.

## URLs to allowlist

| Purpose | URL |
|---------|-----|
| Add-in UI | `https://app.checkedlaw.com` |
| License API | `https://checkedlaw.com/api/*` |
| Marketing / support | `https://checkedlaw.com` |

## Permissions required

The manifest requests **ReadWriteDocument** — required to:

- Wrap selected text in content controls (marks)
- Store the audit trail in a custom XML part inside the .docx

No mailbox, calendar, or external network access to document content.

## Deployment steps (Microsoft 365 admin)

1. Obtain the production manifest from Checked Law (or download from `https://checkedlaw.com/manifest.xml`).
2. Sign in to **Microsoft 365 admin center** → **Settings** → **Integrated apps**.
3. Choose **Upload custom apps** → **Office Add-in** → upload `manifest.xml`.
4. Assign to a pilot security group first, then roll out firm-wide.
5. Users open Word → **Home** → **Checked Law**.

## Firm licensing

Firm licenses are activated by work email domain — no per-user license keys. After we enable your domain, lawyers enter their work email in the add-in and verify via a one-time email code.

## Updates

Application updates are deployed by Checked Law to `app.checkedlaw.com`. Users receive updates automatically when they reopen the task pane. IT redeployment is only needed if manifest permissions or URLs change.
