LexisNexis launches newest version of generative artificial intelligence platform
LexisNexis launched the newest version of its generative artificial intelligence, Lexis+ AI, on Tuesday, offering users faster results and more resources. The second generation LexisNexis legal tool is expected to be available in early May.
Users will be able to have 10 contextual prompt conversations, which is double the number previously allowed. The new tool also provides AI-generated summaries of state and federal statutes and allows users to submit larger documents than previously allowed for analysis and summary. According to an April 23 press release, the limit is approximately 150 pages per document.
“Our vision is for every legal professional worldwide to have a virtual AI assistant that is specifically trained and customized to their needs,” said Sean Fitzpatrick, the CEO of LexisNexis North America, the U.K. and Ireland, in a press release. “We’re working with our customers every step of the way to rapidly deliver AI innovations that enable them to work at peak performance and unlock new opportunities that generate value for their organizations.”
Ninety-one percent of users who had access to the second generation tool report ease of use, compared with 86% of those using the first version, according to LexisNexis.
The original version was released in October, with the aim of providing comprehensive records faster than other legal generative AI options. Features include document uploading, summarization (including legal holdings, relevant facts, case outcomes and controlling law) and document drafting. The documents and information imputed are purged at the end of the session, and users can manage their prompt conversation history.
LexisNexis uses primary law, secondary sources, constitutions, court rules and practice guidance—depending on the user’s subscription.
