Trust, security & AI limits

Useful AI with visible limits

Outlex is built for legal workflows where accuracy, confidentiality, and accountability matter. Here is what the system does, what lawyers review, and what customers should verify.

I - Data

Trust starts with explicit limits.

The page keeps data controls as checkable points, not a generic promise.

Lexi limitsNo magic
What the AI does — and where it stops.
AI outputs are probabilistic and may be incomplete or wrong.
Lexi provides legal information, drafting support, workflow support, and risk flags.
AI-assisted features are identified in-product and in supported exports when provenance is known.
AI output is not legal advice until a qualified lawyer signs off on your specific situation.
High-risk or uncertain items should be escalated to a lawyer — the product surfaces escalation in one click.
Data

How we handle data

EU hosting, encryption in transit, and a subprocessor list you can request.

Sources

Source citations

Lexi cites sources where they exist and says when coverage is partial.

Lawyers

Human lawyer review

A lawyer steps in on request, on low confidence, or for paid add-ons.

Responsibility

Binding legal advice remains human.

01
When a lawyer steps inWhen you click “Have a lawyer confirm this,” when Lexi is low-confidence on a high-impact item, or for any transaction add-on.
02
Context the lawyer receivesThe chat thread, the document, Lexi’s analysis, and any flagged sources — no re-briefing call.
03
Who provides human supportHuman Legal Support is provided by appropriately qualified Professionals, depending on the jurisdiction, matter, scope, and applicable law. Human Legal Support is a Portugal-only add-on.
04
Responsibility modelAI output is workflow support provided by Outlex AI, Lda. Binding legal advice is given by the licensed lawyer reviewing the matter, under their own professional responsibility and insurance.

Data

Controls customers can verify.

We do not claim documents never leave the EU as an absolute. Some subprocessors may operate outside the EU under contractual safeguards — full list in the DPA pack.

06Subprocessor list shared with contracted customers and kept up to date.
Sources

Citations reduce risk, but do not replace judgment.

We do not claim every answer cites a primary source. Coverage depends on the topic, jurisdiction, and the materials available to the system.

01Lexi cites available primary or official sources where relevant — DRE, DGSI, EUR-Lex, plus other national statutes, EU regulations, and official guidance.
02Customers can inspect each citation and follow it back to the source.
03Citations reduce risk but do not remove the need for professional judgment.
Verifiable Grounding

A legal perimeter built from official state gazettes.

Lexi cites official publications from Portugal, England & Wales and the EU where they are available.

How to verify

AI promises should be easy to check.

This page gives the plain-English version for buyers. When your legal, security, or investor team needs the details, these links take them to the app pages and documents they can review.

01Lexi labels AI-assisted work in the product and in supported exports when provenance is known.
02Providers and subprocessors are documented on legal pages customers can review.
03We avoid blanket “AI Act compliant” claims; we show the controls, limits, and review paths instead.
