1. **Creation**\
   Create a contract using an allibee template or upload your company’s own contract.
2. **Request**\
   Request a legal review for the drafted contract.
3. **Legal Review**\
   A legal manager reviews the contract terms.\
   With allibee’s Legal AI, it’s possible to review, edit, add memos, and exchange opinions.
4. **Internal Approval**\
   Once reviewed, the contract moves through an electronic approval system.\
   If electronic approval is not required, this step can be skipped.
5. **Signing**\
   Finalize the contract with the counterparty through an e-signature.\
   If a physical signature is needed, the e-signature step can be skipped.
6. **Completion**\
   The system securely stores the executed contract and lets you find it easily using the search feature.

### Contract Participation Workflow by Member
