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 approach to AI-powered drafting and editing differ from Conga's?
GenieAI was built from the ground up as an AI-native platform, offering lawyer-supported AI for contract drafting, clause-level editing, and even legal research directly inside the document editor - capabilities Conga has only begun to layer on through its Conga AI additions to an originally template-driven system. In practice, this means GenieAI users can ask Genie to suggest new clause text, adjust styling, or flag risk without leaving their workflow, whereas Conga still relies heavily on template-based document generation for its core drafting experience.

Where does Conga have an edge over GenieAI, and which teams should weigh that carefully?
Conga holds a genuine advantage in third-party integrations - particularly its deep Salesforce CRM connectivity and support for cloud storage providers like Google Drive and Dropbox, neither of which GenieAI currently offers. Sales-led organisations that run contract workflows directly out of Salesforce, or teams that depend on cloud storage integrations as a core part of their document management, should factor this into their evaluation before switching.
