LexisNexis Southeast Asia wins at Singapore Business Review Technology Excellence Awards 2026

Protégé enhances legal research and drafting through AI-driven workflows.

LexisNexis Southeast Asia won AI - Legal in the Singapore Business Review Technology Excellence Awards 2026 for its personalised AI assistant, Protégé.

Protégé combines agentic, generative, and conversational AI capabilities to support legal professionals across research, analysis, drafting, and review. Commercially available in Singapore since October 2025, it reflects the growing adoption of AI-assisted workflows in the legal sector.

The platform executes multi-step legal tasks within a single interaction, including interpreting complex queries, retrieving relevant case law and legislation, generating structured outputs, and reviewing responses for consistency. This reduces reliance on multiple tools and manual handoffs across workflows.

Grounded in LexisNexis legal content, including Singapore legislation, case law, and commentary, Protégé delivers outputs backed by verified authorities. It also includes citation validation features to support source verification and accuracy.
Embedded within Lexis+, the assistant adapts to user preferences, firm-approved templates, and prior work, helping legal teams maintain consistency and streamline document creation.

Early adoption in Singapore indicates productivity gains, with legal professionals reportedly retrieving relevant insights in minutes rather than hours. Draft documents such as memos and summaries can be generated in under a minute, whilst longer documents can be processed in seconds.

The system supports natural-language queries, reducing reliance on traditional Boolean search and lowering the learning curve for junior and non-specialist users. It also offers a dual-mode interface, allowing users to switch between legal AI and general AI depending on task requirements.

Security remains a priority, with enterprise-grade safeguards including encryption of data in transit and at rest to support confidentiality in legal environments.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
