Frequently asked questions

What is GenieAI?

GenieAI is a secure, AI-powered legal platform for drafting, reviewing, and managing contracts. It combines lawyer-trained AI with enterprise-grade security, real-time collaboration, and Microsoft Word compatibility. You can try GenieAI for free - no credit card required.

What should I consider when choosing legal AI software?

Look at security and data handling, how accurate the AI is on real legal work, how well it fits your existing workflow (Word, collaboration), the breadth of features beyond a single task, and total cost. The best way to judge fit is to trial the tools - you can start with GenieAI for free.

Can Google Gemini handle the full contract lifecycle the way GenieAI does?

Google Gemini is a powerful general-purpose AI and can help with tasks like drafting or editing text, but it lacks the specialized legal infrastructure that GenieAI provides - including dedicated contract review with clause-level risk assessment, negotiation support, workflow and approval management, and a structured template and clause library. For teams that need to manage contracts from first draft through to execution and reporting, GenieAI is purpose-built for that workflow in a way Gemini is not. Try GenieAI free

If my team already uses Google Workspace, does that make Google Gemini a better fit than GenieAI for legal work?

Google Gemini does integrate natively with Google Drive and Google Docs, which is a genuine advantage if your team lives entirely within the Google ecosystem. However, GenieAI offers real-time collaboration, Microsoft Word import and export, complex legal styling and formatting, and legal research assistance within the document editor - features that matter far more for professional legal contracting than which cloud storage platform you use.
