Generating Tables

Alexi creates structured tables for summarizing, comparing, or organizing information. Tables transform complex data into clear, actionable formats, acting as a "visual summary."

How to generate a table:

1. Be explicit about table structure
   
   • Specify the columns and rows you want.
   • Example: “Generate a table comparing termination clauses in ContractA.docx and ContractB.docx. Columns: Contract Name, Notice Period, Severance Requirements, Governing Law.”
2. Clarify scope
   
   • Only include the clauses, sections, or items you care about.
   • Example: “Focus on indemnity and liability clauses only.”
3. Specify format
   
   • Ask Alexi to format tables for Word, Excel, or PowerPoint so they are ready to use.
   • Example: “Create a table comparing confidentiality clauses across three contracts.”

Best practices for table generation

• Reference documents precisely: Always name the file(s) or section(s) to include.
• Break down complex documents: For large contracts, consider creating multiple smaller tables per section.
• Combine analysis with structure: You can ask Alexi not just to extract clauses but also to summarize risk, compliance issues, or differences.
• Check Activity Log: Verify that Alexi pulled the correct sections before finalizing the table.

Try It Now

1. Upload two or more contracts.
2. Ask Alexi to generate a table comparing a specific clause:
   
   • Example: “Create a table comparing termination clauses in ContractA.pdf and ContractB.pdf. Include columns: Contract Name, Notice Period, Severance, Governing Law.”
3. Review the table and copy it into Word or Excel.

Why this matters

• Clarity: Tables make complex information digestible and easy to compare.
• Efficiency: Quickly review differences across multiple contracts or sections.
• Accuracy: Structured tables reduce the risk of overlooking key clauses or data points.
• Professional output: Tables can be copied directly into client reports or internal memos.
