What is a Project?
A Project is a persistent workspace in LexHub that groups all work related to a specific matter, client, or transaction in one place. It brings together your chats, reviews, and documents so that work that starts ad-hoc becomes organised and easy to pick up again.
Projects are particularly useful when you are working on something over a longer period of time, collaborating with colleagues, or simply want to keep related work together rather than spread across your chat history.
When to use a Project
You don't need a Project for every task in LexHub. For quick, one-off questions or single document analyses, the Assistant works well on its own. Consider creating a Project when:
You are working on a matter that spans multiple conversations or documents
You want to share related work with a colleague in one place
You need to group chats and reviews around a specific client or transaction
You want to be able to return to a body of work easily over time
Creating a Project
Step 1: Create a new Project Go to Projects in the main navigation and click Create project. Give your Project a clear name that reflects the matter or client it relates to — for example, "Acquisition – Company X" or "Employment Contract Review – Q2."
Step 2: Start working inside the Project Once created, you can open the Project and begin working directly within it. Any chats or reviews you start inside the Project are automatically associated with it.
Step 3: Move existing work into the Project If you have already started a relevant chat or review outside the Project, you can move it in. From any chat, select Move chat to project and choose the relevant Project. The same applies to reviews.
What you can do inside a Project
Chat Start a conversation with the Assistant directly within the Project. The chat works exactly like the main Assistant, with full access to file uploads, Dossier selection, legal sources, Workflows, and the Prompt library. Chats started inside a Project are saved there automatically.
Reviews Create or move Reviews into a Project to keep structured document analyses alongside related conversations. This is useful when a matter involves both ad-hoc questions and structured multi-document analysis.
Managing your Projects
Once a Project is created, you have several options for keeping your workspace organised:
Rename Update the Project name at any time to reflect how the matter has evolved. Go to the Project and select Rename from the project actions menu.
Mark as favourite Pin frequently used Projects to the top of your list by marking them as a favourite. This makes it easy to access active matters quickly.
Share Share a Project with one or more colleagues to give them access to the chats and reviews inside it. Go to the Project and select Share.
Archive When a matter is concluded but you want to retain the work for reference, archive the Project. Archived Projects are no longer shown in your main list but remain accessible if you need them later.
Delete If a Project is no longer needed, you can delete it permanently. Note that deleting a Project removes all associated work. This action cannot be undone.
Tips for getting the most out of Projects
Name Projects clearly from the start. A consistent naming convention — such as matter type, client name, and date — makes it easy to find work later and keeps your workspace tidy.
Move chats early. If a conversation in the Assistant becomes part of a larger matter, move it to the relevant Project before it gets buried in your history.
Use Projects alongside Dossiers. A Project organises your work; a Dossier organises your documents. Used together, they give you a complete, matter-specific workspace where both your conversations and your source documents are in the right place.
Archive, don't delete. Unless you are certain you will never need the work again, archiving is safer than deleting. Archived Projects preserve everything while keeping your active workspace clean.
