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.
How does GenieAI's contract drafting and review compare to Lex Mundi Libra?
GenieAI provides AI-native drafting, review, and document editing directly within the platform, so your team can work end-to-end without depending on external counsel for every task. Lex Mundi Libra, by contrast, routes drafting and review through its member firms rather than offering these as built-in platform capabilities - meaning turnaround times and tooling consistency depend on which firm handles your matter. If self-serve, technology-driven contracting is a priority, GenieAI is the more direct fit. Try GenieAI free
Which platform is better suited for teams that work primarily in Microsoft Word?
GenieAI supports importing and exporting Word documents with strong formatting fidelity, and includes full numbering support alongside AI-powered auto-styling - so teams can move between Word and the platform without losing document structure. Lex Mundi Libra has limited native Word integration, with document handling typically managed outside the platform itself, which can add friction for teams whose day-to-day work lives in Word.
