Cedarlock Lex

Cedarlock Lex is an on-premises AI document search appliance designed for internal legal workflows where confidentiality, cited answers, and control over client files matter.

Ask questions across PDFs, scanned documents, correspondence, estate files, probate records, contracts, and internal notes. Lex searches the firm's on-site document set and returns grounded answers with source references for professional review.
