AI legal drafting software FAQs

Do I need Clio Work to use Clio for Word?

Yes. Clio for Word brings the power of Clio Work into Microsoft Word, and it draws on your matters in Clio Manage. That's why every draft is shaped by real client history and case activity, not a blank prompt. Get a demo.

Does Clio for Word edit my document automatically?

No. Every suggestion lands as a redline through Track Changes, so nothing moves until you say so. Clio Work reads your live file, proposes edits, and stays in sync as you work, but you approve every change. Get a demo.

Does Clio for Word use my data to train AI models?

No. Your client data stays inside Clio's secure environment. It's never shared, never used to train AI models, and never leaves infrastructure certified to SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA standards. Confidentiality is never a question.

Can Clio for Word review documents it didn't create?

Yes. Open any document, clean or heavily redlined, and ask Clio Work to surface legal, structural, and persuasive risks before they become problems. It resolves open comments and flags inconsistencies, wherever the file came from. Get a demo.

How is Clio for Word different from other Word AI add-ins?

Most Word AI add-ins work in isolation, prompting from a blank slate. Clio for Word is grounded in your firm's live matter data, client history, and case activity, so the output is anything but generic. It's shaped by the context you bring to every matter. Get a demo.
