AI Powered Legal Drafting: Lexis+ AI® Transforms Blank Page to Draft

The In-House Counsel’s Drafting Dilemma

For in-house legal teams, every draft matters. Whether it’s a vendor contract, data-sharing agreement, or emerging technology policy, corporate counsel face the pressure of delivering fast, accurate documents while safeguarding the company against risk. Yet, starting from scratch often means juggling competing priorities: speed, precision, compliance and business alignment.

LexisNexis Protégé™ in Lexis+ AI® solves that challenge. This AI-powered platform helps in-house counsel go from blank page to a tailored first draft in seconds, while also identifying missing clauses and strengthening agreements with trusted LexisNexis legal intelligence.

From Blank Page to First Draft in Seconds

Imagine you’re tasked with drafting an AI Ethics Agreement or a new vendor onboarding contract. Instead of spending hours piecing together precedent documents, you enter a prompt:

“Draft an AI Ethics Agreement for <Company Name>, Inc. to establish guidelines for responsible development and deployment of artificial intelligence.”

Within seconds, Lexis+ AI generates a jurisdiction-specific, business-ready first draft. No more staring at a blank screen — you immediately have a starting point tailored to your needs.

Speed up internal turnaround times and deliver business-ready drafts without sacrificing legal accuracy.

Closing Gaps and Reducing Risk with “What’s Missing?”

For corporate counsel, overlooked clauses can create liability exposure. The “What’s Missing?” feature in Lexis+ AI reviews your draft and flags potential gaps — such as intellectual property ownership in a technology agreement.

Recommendations appear instantly, making it easy to insert missing provisions with confidence.

Reduce contract risk and protect the business by ensuring no critical provisions are overlooked.

Smarter IP Clause Drafting for Corporate Needs

  • Ownership of AI-generated content with clear attribution and compensation
  • Licensing and usage rights for employee and third-party contributions
  • Cross-border compliance where global operations introduce added complexity

Protect corporate assets with comprehensive, customizable IP provisions.
