LexisNexis Expands Lexis+ AI to French-Speaking Canadian Legal Professionals

Following the successful launch of the English Lexis+ AI solution in Canada, Lexis+ AI is now commercially available in French, becoming the first comprehensive bilingual Canadian legal generative AI solution available in Canada. Grounded in French-Canadian content, including practical guidance, Lexis+ AI delivers fully encrypted, secure interactions, and responses that are backed by verifiable linked legal citations.

Toronto, ON – September 4, 2024 – LexisNexis^® Legal & Professional, a leading global provider of legal information and analytics, today announced that Lexis+ AI, the legal generative AI solution, has launched in English and French for Canadian users. This follows the successful commercial launch of the English Lexis+ AI solution to the Canadian market on July 25, 2024, and previous launches in the USA, Australia, UK, and France.

Lexis+ AI delivers trusted responses in a familiar, easy-to-use interface that uses an extensively enhanced LexisNexis proprietary Retrieval Augmented Generation 2.0 (RAG 2.0) platform. Lexis+ AI responses are grounded in one of the world’s largest collections of authoritative and exclusive French-Canadian legal content including primary, secondary, analytical content and Practical Guidance modules.

Lexis+ AI provides direct links to underlying citable authority in its responses. This allows users to instantly validate results, reducing the risk of invented content, or hallucinations. Lexis+ AI automatically checks all linked citations against LexisNexis’ content to ensure they are valid.

The solution’s AI capabilities were built internally at LexisNexis with world-leading tech partnerships, enabling the company to rapidly introduce new features and technology and provide customers with a seamlessly integrated experience across the LexisNexis ecosystem.

Developed with input from leading legal professionals in Quebec and across Canada, Lexis+ AI has been developed to meet the day-to-day needs of lawyers. Lexis+ AI features conversational search, intelligent legal drafting, insightful summarization, and document upload capabilities, all supported by state-of-the-art encryption and privacy technology to keep sensitive data secure:

• Conversational search simplifies complex and time-consuming legal research by enabling users to conversationally interact with Lexis+ AI, explore new insights, and ask for adjusted and refined output.
• Document drafting instantly produces contract clauses and client communications from a simple user prompt.
• Summarization functionality delivers case summaries in seconds with more content and capabilities coming soon.
• Document upload capabilities enable users to rapidly analyze, summarize and extract key insights from legal documents.

Lexis+ AI offers industry-leading data security and attention to privacy. Uploaded documents are always purged at the end of each session and users can easily manage or delete their prompt conversation history.

The solution is continually improving, with LexisNexis legal subject matter experts regularly sampling hundreds of thousands of AI generated answers, to tune and educate the model. LexisNexis employs over 2,000 technologists, data scientists and subject matter experts to develop, test, and validate its solutions and deliver comprehensive, accurate information.

“This is an incredible milestone for the French-Canadian legal market. We take immense pride in expanding this ground-breaking legal solution to our French clients empowering them to thrive securely and confidently,” said Sam Puchala, President and General Manager of LexisNexis Canada. “The enthusiasm about Lexis+ AI underscores its game-changing potential, and we are thrilled to provide our clients with seamless access to our comprehensive legal resources and state-of-the-art AI capabilities, giving them a competitive edge like never before.”
