How Does Lexagle's Legal AI Product Empower Legal Teams?

Designed by legal counsels and engineers, Lexie operates on precision, legal-first training, enterprise-grade security, user intuitiveness, and adaptability to learn from interactions.
What sets Lexagle apart is its specialised design, avoiding generic language models by training on client-specific contracts and data.

Lexie AI powers smart contract automation and provides comprehensive AI-powered legaltech capabilities. Some of its key capabilities include:
- Intelligent Clause Recognition and Risk Flagging
Lexie AI's Document Integrity Checker continuously monitors all contracts, including PDFs and image files, highlighting clauses with unapproved revisions for seamless review.

This greatly reduces review time and helps improve compliance.
