Word Add-in
Judicio for Word puts the full drafting-and-review toolkit inside Microsoft Word — on Windows, Mac, and Word on the web. Every AI edit lands as a native tracked change you accept or reject, and every answer is grounded in the document in front of you.
At a glance
- Install: free, from AppSource (search "Judicio" in Word's add-in store)
- Sign in: your existing Judicio account (with a pairing-code fallback)
- What you get: drafting, rewriting, redlining, playbook review, document Q&A, legal research with footnotes, benchmarking, translation, anonymisation, and more — about twenty panels
- Credits: actions charge your normal Judicio credit balance — the fixed costs are listed below, and the pane shows what each run charged
Install from AppSource
- In Word, go to Home → Add-ins (in older Word versions: Insert → Get Add-ins).
- Choose Store (or More Add-ins) and search for "Judicio".
- Click Add. A Judicio group appears on the ribbon with an Open Judicio button.
- Click Open Judicio to open the task pane.
The same listing works in Word for Windows, Word for Mac, and Word on the web.
Sign in
- Open the task pane and click Sign in. A Judicio sign-in window opens.
- Sign in with your existing Judicio account (the same one you use at app.judicio.ai).
- The pane unlocks and shows your credit balance in the header.
If the sign-in window doesn't complete (pairing code)
Some environments — Word on the web and certain Mac setups — block the sign-in window from finishing. Use the pairing fallback:
- In the task pane, choose Use a pairing code instead. The pane displays a short code (letters and digits, e.g.
ABCD-2345— dashes and spaces don't matter) and a link to the pairing page. - Click the link — it opens app.judicio.ai/settings/add-ins/pair in your browser with the code already filled in (sign in if prompted). Or go there yourself and type the code.
- Confirm the code. The task pane signs itself in within a few seconds.
The code expires after five minutes; just request a new one if it does.
What's in the pane
The home menu groups the tools; each opens its own panel. Names below are as they appear in the pane.
Draft and rewrite
| Panel | What it does |
|---|---|
| Draft from prompt | Generate a clause or a full agreement from a plain-language brief — starting blank or from one of your drafting templates — inserted at your cursor |
| Rewrite selection | Rewrite the selected text — stronger, softer, shorter, or plain English |
| Explain this clause | Plain-English explanation of the selected clause, with a risk note |
Review and redline
| Panel | What it does |
|---|---|
| AI redline selection | Tracked-changes edits on the selected clause |
| Whole-document redline | A full-document redline applied as native tracked changes |
| Playbook review | Check the document against one of your review templates (playbooks) — deviations and missing clauses, flagged in place |
| Detect untracked edits | Compare the open document against a prior version and surface every unmarked change as a redline |
| Summarize edits | Turn the document's tracked changes into a negotiation memo |
Ask and research
| Panel | What it does |
|---|---|
| Document Q&A | Chat about the open contract, with citations back into the text |
| Legal research | Research the law and insert authorities as footnotes with verifiable citations |
| Compare to market | Benchmark a clause against a market corpus of comparable clauses |
| Find firm precedent | Retrieve your firm's own exemplar clauses for the point you're drafting |
| Triple-grounded citations | Ground a proposition against firm knowledge, market practice, and the law — with confidence levels |
Language and hygiene
| Panel | What it does |
|---|---|
| Translate | Translate the document or a selection, preserving formatting |
| Anonymize / redact | Find personal data and redact it under Track Changes |
| Structure check | Defined terms, cross-references, and numbering issues — free |
Library and templates
| Panel | What it does |
|---|---|
| Convert to template | Turn the open document into a reusable, placeholdered drafting template |
| Save to Judicio | Upload the document back to your File Library |
| Deal set review | Review a set of related contracts together, cross-document |
Credits
Word-specific actions have fixed costs:
| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
| Rewrite selection | 2 |
| Explain this clause | 2 |
| Summarize edits | 2 |
| Anonymize / redact | 3 |
| Proofread pass (optional add-on) | 3 |
| Find firm precedent | 4 |
| Triple-grounded citations | 5 |
| Detect untracked edits (compare versions) | 5 |

The remaining panels — Draft from prompt, Document Q&A, Playbook review, Translate, Legal research, and Deal set review — run through the same features as the web app and are billed at those features' standard rates. See Credits Explained.
Your organisation's admin may have adjusted individual prices; the pane shows the amount actually charged after each run.
Troubleshooting
- The add-in doesn't appear in the store. Your Microsoft 365 admin may restrict store add-ins. Ask them to allow Judicio or deploy it centrally (Microsoft 365 admin center → Integrated Apps).
- Sign-in window opens and nothing happens. Use the pairing code instead.
- "No active seat" after signing in. Your account exists but isn't on an active Judicio plan or seat — see Team Management or contact your admin.
- A panel says it needs a workspace folder. Some panels (Q&A, Playbook review, Translate) stage the document in your File Library first; if your deployment hasn't configured the staging folder, the panel explains this instead of running. Contact support if you see it in production.
