Editor Mode

The Challenge

Legal professionals spend significant time switching between Word and external AI tools, losing context and momentum in their document workflows. Traditional legal drafting requires constant reference checking, terminology verification, and style consistency—tasks that interrupt the natural flow of legal writing.

How to Unplex

Unplex's Editor Mode transforms Microsoft Word into an intelligent legal drafting environment. Rather than building another standalone application, we embedded our AI directly into the tool lawyers already use for 90% of their document work.

Technical Implementation:

  • Native Office Add-In Architecture: Built using Microsoft's Office.js framework for seamless integration
  • Real-time Processing: AI assistance processes text as you type, without interrupting workflow
  • Context Preservation: Maintains document structure, formatting, and legal citations
  • Secure: All processing happens through encrypted channels with Microsoft Azure

Key Capabilities:

  • Contextual AI Chat: Access legal AI assistance without leaving Word
  • Inline Editing: AI suggestions appear directly in the Add-in as revision proposals
  • Document-Aware Responses: AI understands your entire document context
  • Multi-Language Agnostic: Works in any language

Legal professionals can now:

  1. Ask Questions Naturally: "What's the standard force majeure clause for this jurisdiction?"
  2. Request Edits Inline: "Make this paragraph more concise while maintaining legal precision"
  3. Get Instant Revisions

Performance Impact

  • 68% reduction in document drafting time
  • Eliminate context switching between Word and external tools
  • Maintain document formatting throughout AI assistance
  • Preserve legal citations and cross-references

Looking Ahead

We're continuously improving Editor Mode with enhanced legal reasoning capabilities, expanded jurisdiction support, and deeper Microsoft ecosystem integration. Our goal is making AI assistance feel as natural as spell-check in professional legal writing.
