While drafting a document in Lexlegis, you can choose to follow an AI Rulebook. AI Rulebooks act as authoritative drafting guidelines that help ensure your document aligns with internal standards, jurisdictional requirements, and best practices.
1. What This Step Does
This step allows you to apply one or more AI Rulebooks to guide how the draft is generated.
When an AI Rulebook is selected, Lexlegis uses it to:
- Control drafting standards and structure
- Enforce mandatory inclusions or exclusions
- Maintain consistency in tone, terminology, and style
- Align the draft with internal or jurisdiction-specific rules
AI Rulebooks influence how the draft is written, not which template is used.
2. What Is an AI Rulebook?
An AI Rulebook is a curated set of drafting rules, policies, or instructions stored in your Library.
Rulebooks typically contain:
- Internal legal or compliance standards
- Jurisdiction-specific drafting rules
- Approved language guidance
- Do’s and don’ts for legal drafting
They are designed to be reusable across multiple drafts.
3. Selecting an AI Rulebook
From this step, you can browse and select AI Rulebooks already available in your Library.
3.1 How Selection Works
- Rulebooks are organised into folders
- You can search for a Rulebook by name
- One or more Rulebooks can be selected
- Selected Rulebooks are treated as binding drafting guidance
Only the Rulebooks you select here are applied during drafting.
4. When to Use an AI Rulebook
Use an AI Rulebook when:
- Drafting documents governed by internal policies
- Working across multiple jurisdictions
- Ensuring consistency across teams or matters
- Reducing review cycles caused by policy misalignment
If no AI Rulebook is selected, Lexlegis drafts using general legal best practices and the inputs provided in earlier steps.
5. Best Practices
- Select only relevant Rulebooks to avoid conflicting instructions
- Match the Rulebook to the governing jurisdiction of the document
- Combine AI Rulebooks with clause selection for higher precision
- Review and update Rulebooks periodically in the Library
Well-maintained Rulebooks significantly improve draft consistency and reduce manual rework.
6. What Happens Next
After selecting an AI Rulebook, you proceed to the final configuration step: Adding Special Instructions to a Draft
This allows you to specify tone, audience, urgency, or formatting preferences before the draft is generated.
Once completed, Lexlegis generates the draft using:
- The selected template
- Any extracted document data
- Selected clauses
- Applied AI Rulebook guidance
