As LexisNexis unveils Lexis+ with Protégé in the United States, the company marks a significant transition by phasing out Lexis+ AI, which it now labels its “first-generation AI experience”. This newly launched platform ushers in a comprehensive suite of AI workflow capabilities, aimed at revolutionizing the way legal professionals operate. The move follows an earlier commercial preview rolled out in January.
The introduction of Lexis+ with Protégé is not merely a rebranding of its predecessor, but a significant enhancement that consolidates multiple functionalities into a single interface. The platform integrates LexisNexis’s extensive legal content library, with the reliable Shepard’s Citations for output verification, and is bolstered with various general AI models from Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI. This strategic consolidation allows attorneys to manage tasks through one conversational prompt box, streamlining their workflow.
Lexis+ with Protégé debuts with over 300 workflows, with a capacity for customizing these processes to fit individual or organization-specific needs. Professionals have the option to create their workflows through a no-code builder, turning institutional knowledge and preferred standards into repeatable processes. This integration is further supported by a “white glove” service, offering personalized assistance in building and migrating workflows.
As Sean Fitzpatrick, CEO global legal at LexisNexis Legal & Professional, articulates, this platform offers an all-in-one environment. By bridging comprehensive legal content, trusted workflows, and AI model integrations, Protégé aims to provide legal teams with validated, consistent outputs across various tasks.
The platform is constructed on an extensive living legal knowledge graph, updated with over 4 million documents daily, ensuring it remains a competitive offering in the legal domain. Additional functionality, including practice-area-specific tools and agentic workflow capabilities, remains in development and is anticipated in future updates.
Set against the backdrop of a legal AI market striving to deliver end-to-end solutions, LexisNexis’s latest offering stands distinct with Shepard’s citations backing its AI performances, addressing prevalent hesitations about AI accuracy in legal applications. For further details, visit LexisNexis.
