Imagine having the best lawyer you know, on their very best day, sitting right beside you – available instantly to explain, simplify, and answer your toughest contract questions.
That’s what we’re building with Plexus Counsel. And today, we’re giving you the first glimpse with a brand-new Beta feature, launching right inside your Document details page.
Why We Built This
Lawyers spend countless hours combing through contracts to answer the same fundamental questions:
What are the risks for my business?
What rights do we have to walk away?
Where might this clause create a problem down the track?
Until now, that’s meant scrolling, highlighting, and interpreting dozens of pages by hand. With Plexus Counsel, you can ask those questions directly of the document on your screen – and get clear, instant answers.
This is more than efficiency. It’s about empowering you and your business to make decisions faster, with less risk, and more confidence.
What You Can Do in the Beta
Ask your document a question — type in exactly what you want to know, or use one of our example prompts to get started.
Get back clear, concise answers — tailored to the specific contract you’re reviewing.
Trial it safely — every user in your organisation can try Counsel, with the option to run the Beta in a siloed environment.
What It Can’t Do (Yet)
We want to be transparent about where the tool is today:
Knowledge integration isn’t live yet. That means Counsel won’t (for now) reference your organisation’s playbooks, policies, or precedents.
It works at the document level only. You’ll be asking about the contract on screen, not comparing across agreements.
These capabilities are on our roadmap, and you’ll see them appear as we evolve Counsel.
Where We’re Headed
Our long-term vision is for every business user in your organisation to be able to ask plain-English questions about contracts and policies – and receive accurate, reliable answers.
That means less time chasing legal for routine questions, and more time for lawyers to focus on the high-value, high-impact work.
This Beta is the first step toward that vision.
How You Can Help Shape Counsel
Your feedback matters. Tell your Account Manager what works well, what feels unclear, and what you’d like to see next. Every insight helps us shape Counsel into the “pocket lawyer” you’ll rely on every day.
