The examples below are written to be adapted. For each one, the recommended mode is indicated — the mode is selected in the input bar before sending. ### Legal research (Classic mode, Smart) "A tenant of commercial premises in the canton of Vaud has not paid rent for two months. The landlord wants to terminate the lease. What is the procedure to follow, what notice periods apply, and what formal requirements must the termination meet to be valid?" Remember to select Vaud in the canton filter. ### Analysing an attached document (Free mode) "Analyse art. 7 of the attached contract. Identify the obligations it places on each party, flag any clause that would be problematic under Swiss law, and tell me what is missing compared with standard market practice." Targeting a specific article rather than asking for a general review gives a far more precise result. ### Comparing your document against the law (Free mode) "Here is a draft employment contract. Check whether the non-competition clause and the notice periods comply with the CO, and list every point that would need to be amended. Present it as a table: clause, problem identified, provision concerned, suggested correction." ### Drafting a letter or a formal notice (Drafting mode) "Draft a formal notice to a client who has not settled an invoice of CHF 12,000 issued on 3 June, payable within 30 days. Two reminders have already been sent. Set a final deadline of 10 days and announce legal proceedings failing payment. Formal tone, in French." ### Drafting a contract (Drafting mode) "Draft a service agreement between a Geneva-based consulting company and a corporate client, covering a sixmonth engagement, with clauses on confidentiality, intellectual property, liability limitation and termination. Governed by Swiss law, forum in Geneva." ### Testing a strategy (Brainstorm mode) "I am acting for the defendant in the dispute described above. What arguments could the opposing party rely on, what are the weaknesses in my position, and which alternative angles should I consider before settling on a line of defence?" ### Imposing an output format (Free mode) "Give me a three-point note, no more than one page, summarising the applicable legal framework, the risks for my client, and my recommendation. Written so it can be sent to a non-lawyer." ### Chaining several prompts (Free mode) A productive pattern: start in Classic mode with your research question, then switch to Free mode in the same conversation to ask "Turn that analysis into an email to my client, in plain language, around fifteen lines." The mode change applies from your next message, and the conversation keeps the context of the research it already produced.  - [General](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Silo Functionnality](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#silo-functionnality) - [Translator Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#translator-agent) - [Anonymizer Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#anonymizer-agent) - [Document Comparison Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#document-comparison-agent) - [Meeting Minutes Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#meeting-minutes-agent) - [Silex Chat](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#silex-chat) - [Account, Organisation & Billing](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/general?hsLang=en#account-organisation-billing) - [Getting started](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Silo Functionnality](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#silo-functionnality) - [Translator Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#translator-agent) - [Anonymizer Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#anonymizer-agent) - [Document Comparison Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#document-comparison-agent) - [Meeting Minutes Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#meeting-minutes-agent) - [Silex Chat](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#silex-chat) - [Account, Organisation & Billing](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#account-organisation-billing) - [Integrations](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Silo Functionnality](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en#silo-functionnality) - [Silex Chat](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en#silex-chat) - [Plans & Billing](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Translator Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#translator-agent) - [Anonymizer Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#anonymizer-agent) - [Document Comparison Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#document-comparison-agent) - [Meeting Minutes Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#meeting-minutes-agent) - [Silex Chat](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#silex-chat) - [Account, Organisation & Billing](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/plans-billing?hsLang=en#account-organisation-billing) - [Security & privacy](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Silo Functionnality](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#silo-functionnality) - [Translator Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#translator-agent) - [Document Comparison Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#document-comparison-agent) - [Meeting Minutes Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#meeting-minutes-agent) - [Silex Chat](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#silex-chat) - [Account, Organisation & Billing](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/security-privacy?hsLang=en#account-organisation-billing) - [Troubleshooting](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Silo Functionnality](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#silo-functionnality) - [Translator Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#translator-agent) - [Anonymizer Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#anonymizer-agent) - [Document Comparison Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#document-comparison-agent) - [Meeting Minutes Agent](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#meeting-minutes-agent) - [Silex Chat](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#silex-chat) - [Account, Organisation & Billing](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#account-organisation-billing) [![logo-KB](https://help.silex.legal/hubfs/logo-KB.svg "logo-KB")](https://help.silex.legal/en/knowledge-base?hsLang=en)  support@silex.legal Copyright © 2026, Silex - Ex Nunc Intelligence SA
