Vaquill AI for Word

A Microsoft Word add-in (task pane) that brings Vaquill AI contract review, grounded redlining, drafting, and US legal research into Word. It works on the document you already have open, and it writes results back as native Word tracked changes, comments, and content controls. There is no separate upload step: the open document is the subject.

Today the hosted add-in is a thin client. It reads the open document through the Office JavaScript API, calls the Vaquill AI backend, and applies the results back into the document. The legal intelligence (the corpus, the grounding checks, the playbooks) lives in the backend.

Community edition (in progress). A standalone, self-hostable bring-your-own-key (BYOK) version is under active development. It will let you run the add-in against your own model and infrastructure, without the hosted backend.
