Acquired by Clio on Jun 30, 2025
Vincent AI from vLex is a global AI legal workflow tool. It's useful for drafting legal documents, replying to transactional drafts, creating litigation pleadings, or conducting AI-enhanced legal research and drafting. Vincent is also the only global tool, powered by the law of the United States, UK, Ireland, European Union, Spain, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Singapore, and New Zealand, all in one platform, with new countries being added all the time. That's why the American Association of Law Libraries has named Vincent AI the 2024 New Product of the Year, the first generative AI tool to win the honor.
Vincent's AI is the most capable, verifiable, and global AI legal workflow tool. The toolbox currently includes the following legal skills:
Answer Legal Questions
Ask Vincent AI any legal research question and it will provide answers with full citations, linked through to primary and secondary sources held on vLex’s global database of authoritative legal information. Vincent offers full transparency; lawyers can see exactly which sources it uses to arrive at an answer and verify the results for themselves.
Document Analysis
Vincent’s new document analysis capabilities go beyond information retrieval. Just upload any legal document and Vincent AI will carry out a range of sophisticated legal reasoning-related actions in response to a set of carefully designed prompts – anything from creating timelines of facts, through to generating defenses to claims.
Build an Argument
Vincent AI harnesses the power of Generative AI to analyze legal documents and use this knowledge to build arguments, including anticipating the claims that opposing counsel will make and automatically creating counter-arguments. Lawyers can use this information as the basis of legal briefs, client letters, or any other legal communication.
Compare Jurisdictions
Comparing the law between different jurisdictions is one of the most time-consuming tasks for lawyers. Vincent AI makes it easy by drawing from vLex’s vast repository of trusted and authoritative legal information from more than 100 countries and across 200 jurisdictions, including all US states.
50-State Survey Made Easy
With Vincent AI, you can compare laws on a particular topic across different states –including related federal content – to help provide a foundation for your 50-state survey with ease.
Find Related Documents
Vincent Ai can locate a document and also automatically find semantically related documents that might have been overlooked in a manual search. Legal professionals can be sure that they are aware of both key documents, and those that can give them an extra edge when it comes to building their case.
Case Analysis
Vincent AI can read cases, extract legal issues and other key information, and automatically produce summarized headnotes - helping legal professionals save time and quickly determine whether a case is relevant without having to read each judgment.
The platform upgraded in September 2024 and added the following skills:
Analyze a Contract
Allows users to identify non-market provisions, create consistency among definitions, identify risks, create closing checklists, catalog post-closing obligations, and flag unfavorable language.
Analyze a Deposition
Allows users to summarize testimony, extract key facts, formulate follow-up questions and objections, and create timelines.
Ask a Research Question
Allows users to draft a research memo in response to legal questions in the 13 jurisdictions vLex covers, including direct citations and links to verified sources, incorporating Fastcase’s Cert citator for U.S. research.
Build an Argument
Allows users to research and draft arguments in support of or against specific propositions, based on precedent in a given jurisdiction.
Compare Documents
Allows users to upload multiple documents and identify differences in table format.
Compare Law in Different Jurisdictions
Allows users to compare governing law across different U.S. states or between different countries.
Find Related Authorities
Allows users to upload a document and find primary and secondary related authorities from vLex.
Redline Analysis
Allows users to review document redlines to summarize changes, determine their likely impact, and develop a relevant negotiation strategy.
The Winter 2025 Release, vLex announced six new litigation-focused Vincent AI workflows with sophisticated data analytics capabilities powered by Generative AI and the U.S. state and federal court records in Docket Alarm.
The available workflows include:
Profile a Lawyer:
Analyze motion success rates, typical roles in litigation, case duration trends, and notable cases
Profile a Law Firm:
Review firm expertise, major clients, and practice strengths
Profile a Party:
Examine settlement patterns, jurisdiction preferences, and outside counsel relationships
Profile a Judge:
Study judicial preferences, reversal rates, decision patterns, and expert witness history
Docket Research:
Conduct natural language searches across Docket Alarm’s 850M+ court records
Find Litigation Precedents:
Uncover winning motions, briefs, and orders instantly
Additionally, the Build an Argument workflow was upgraded to allow facts from client matters to be combined with data from relevant legal authorities. This workflow enables faster development of persuasive, case-specific arguments with direct links to citations. Vincent AI also provides recommendations on the strongest arguments based on the facts of a case with detailed analyses on why certain positions may hold more merit.
VLex added Hong Kong, Italy, Peru, and Ecuador to the listing of country and region specific workflows, joining Brazil, France, and Portugal.
The Spring 2025 Release Added the following features and functions:
Workflow Engine
The Vincent Workflow Engine is a proprietary agentic AI framework developed by vLex to support structured legal task execution within its Vincent platform. Designed to integrate a suite of specialized agents, the Workflow Engine enables the platform to select and apply appropriate tools for each stage of a legal workflow. Rather than relying on open-ended prompting, it guides users through defined, step-by-step procedures, helping ensure consistency and reliability in complex legal processes. This approach combines the adaptability of conversational AI with the predictability of expert-designed workflows, offering legal professionals a system that balances flexibility with procedural rigor.
Studio
Studio is a no-code workflow creation tool developed by vLex that enables law firms and legal departments to design custom legal workflows using Vincent’s AI capabilities and vLex’s structured legal data. Introduced in the Winter ’25 release and currently in beta, Studio allows users to build workflows in minutes through a guided interface, without the need for programming. These workflows can be shared across teams or organizations and integrated alongside prebuilt vLex workflows within the Vincent platform. Developed in collaboration with legal professionals, Studio is designed to support flexible, user-driven innovation in legal process automation. Enterprise Vincent subscribers can request early access to the beta version.
Tables
Tables is a feature within the Vincent platform that enables users to analyze large volumes of documents or detailed content within individual files. It allows legal professionals to extract key data points, compare clauses, and identify inconsistencies directly within their secure workspace. Users can define specific criteria for comparison or rely on Vincent to automatically highlight differences. The tool supports interactive analysis by enabling follow-up questions, deeper examination of individual data points, and integration with legal research—all within a single chat interface. Tables is designed to support a range of legal tasks, including transactional reviews, litigation analysis, compliance audits, and internal knowledge management.
General Assist
General Assist is a feature within the Vincent platform that extends its capabilities beyond legal tasks to support a wide range of business-oriented activities. Users can draft emails, summarize conversations, generate ideas, and prepare presentations—all within the same secure interface used for legal workflows. By maintaining conversation context and operating within Vincent’s ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliant environment, General Assist allows legal professionals to address both legal and business needs without switching tools or compromising data security. It leverages the same underlying language models as Vincent’s legal features, offering a flexible, all-in-one workspace for professional communication and productivity.
Funding Information:
vLex has raised a total of €4M ($4.2M) in funding over 4 rounds. Their latest undisclosed funding amount was raised in April 2023 from a Debt Financing round from Oakley Capital.
