What is Lex?

Lex is a browser-based word processor with AI editing built in. Ask Lex is a chat panel that gives feedback on a draft using an AI model the writer picks, and Checks marks line-level edits for brevity, grammar and readability inside the document. Documents can be shared by link for live co-editing and comments, and the free plan covers writing and collaboration with daily limits on AI use.

Lex has a free plan. Paid plans start at $14.99 per month, billed yearly ($179.88). See every plan

Key features

Ask Lex
A chat panel for feedback, rewrites and brainstorming on the open document. Highlighting text, or tagging @Lex in a comment, asks about one passage. The AI model can be switched.
Checks
Runs line edits for brevity, grammar, readability and more, shown as highlights in the document. Clicking one shows the suggested edit and the reason for it.
Custom prompts and context
Saved prompts can be reused in Ask Lex and Checks and shared with others. Style guides and knowledge bases give the AI a voice to follow and background to draw on.
Versions and Rewind
Versions are named save points for trying another approach. Rewind is a timeline at the top of a document for scrubbing through past changes and restoring an earlier state.
Live collaboration and comments
A shared link gives edit or view-only access, with co-editing in real time and comment threads. Lex Teams is a paid add-on for unlimited group use of shared folders.
Export and API
Documents export to Word, PDF, Markdown, HTML and LaTeX, and an API can create, list and update documents with a key generated in settings.
