Quillio + Microsoft Word

Legal AI inside the tool where drafting already happens.

Word is where most drafting, reviewing, and redlining still happens. A Quillio Word add-in is in development; today, Quillio works with Word via file upload.

In short

Quillio is building a direct Word add-in — here is what it will do when available, and what you can do today. Status: coming soon. Today, lawyers can upload a .docx file from Word into Quillio, run document review, redline analysis, drafting, or research, and paste the AI output back into Word. The direct Word add-in will bring Quillio into a side panel in Word so the review happens without leaving the document.

What it does

Quillio inside Microsoft Word

The Quillio Word add-in will put a side panel into Microsoft Word with the core Quillio capabilities (review, draft, research, redline) applied to whatever document is open. Selected text can be sent to Quillio; the AI output can be inserted or tracked as a change. Today the same workflow runs through Quillio in a browser — upload the .docx, get the output, paste back.

Capabilities

What you can do

Document review on the open file

Run a risk and clarity review on the Word document currently open. Today via upload; add-in panel planned.

Redline analysis

Compare two versions of a Word document (yours and the counterparty's) and get a plain-English summary of the tracked changes.

Drafting in place

Select a paragraph and ask Quillio to refine, expand, or rewrite it. Insert the AI version back as a tracked change.

Research alongside the draft

Ask a research question from inside the document — Quillio understands what the document is about and scopes the answer accordingly.

Plain-English client version

Generate a plain-English client-facing version of a legal document without leaving Word.

Data flow and security

Data flow

Today, .docx files are uploaded to Quillio manually. Processing happens on Quillio's Australian-hosted infrastructure. When the Word add-in ships, document text and selections will flow from Word to Quillio over an authenticated, encrypted connection, with AI outputs returned to the Word panel for insert or comment.

Security

Microsoft Corporation holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and a broad set of enterprise certifications for Microsoft 365 and Word. Quillio holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 on Australian-hosted infrastructure. The planned add-in will use Microsoft's standard add-in authentication flow and TLS for data in transit.

Who uses it: Any Australian law firm that drafts in Word — which is effectively every firm. Most useful for lawyers who spend significant time in Word on commercial agreements, pleadings, opinions, and client advice.
