Overview
Legistify Codex is an AI-powered workspace designed to help legal and business teams work faster with contracts.
With Codex, you can ask questions, draft agreements, analyse risks, and extract insights from contracts using natural language prompts.
Instead of switching between multiple tools, Codex allows you to perform drafting, contract review, compliance checks, and obligation tracking from one place within the platform.

To start using Codex:
1. Open the Contract Management Tool.
2. From the left navigation panel, click Codex.
3. The Codex workspace will open where you can enter prompts and interact with the AI assistant.
You will see a prompt field labeled “Enter a prompt for Codex”, where you can type your request or question.

Drafting & Clauses
Examples include:

Codex can help review contracts and identify potential issues.
Examples include:
Summarise the key commercial and legal terms of this contract

This allows you to quickly understand the key elements of a contract.

These insights help legal teams assess risk more efficiently.
