## Summary

Goodwin, a global law firm, has integrated its AI Governance Benchmark into **Claude for Legal**, part of Anthropic’s gallery of ready-to-use tools. The Benchmark helps legal teams identify gaps in their AI governance by asking a series of questions about their organization’s AI use. Based on Goodwin’s **AI Governance program**, it provides a quick assessment—taking about five minutes—and suggests priority areas for improvement, with optional follow-up support from the firm.

The tool is part of Goodwin’s broader push to accelerate AI adoption for clients while addressing regulatory and operational risks. The firm’s **AI Decision Desk**, an annual subscription service, offers real-time monitoring of AI regulations and enforcement, alongside tailored readiness materials. Goodwin’s **Regina OS** platform also underpins its efforts to modernize legal workflows with technology. The Benchmark is designed to help legal teams act faster without governance becoming a bottleneck, according to **Gary Sangha**, Director of AI Product and Platforms at Goodwin.

## Key points
