The problem
A browser tab is easy to lose and hard for IT to govern. Firms standardizing on EdgeLex want a real application: installed, signed, updated on the firm's terms, and wired into native Word workflows.
The installed workspace
Commanded. Round-tripped. Installed.
The full platform as a native app — same governance, same record, plus the things only an installed app can do. Every screen below is the real product.
01 · Commanded
The cockpit, installed.
The desktop opens on the morning already triaged: Lex's sweep of what needs you, the overdue count that won't flatter you, active matters and the Projects tree one click deep, and slash commands that route a turn to filing, deadline, draft, email, or billing — all under the same governed routing chip as the web.
The same Lex, everywhere →+ New Chat

Word is a first-class citizen, not an export path.
Open any version in native Microsoft Word, edit, and save back onto the same version chain — checkout, verified baselines, and the audit trail intact, with frozen versions staying frozen. The document never leaves governance to visit the tool lawyers actually draft in.

Version history
Sign-in runs in the system browser; tokens live in OS-encrypted storage. One binary, governed Word round-trip, signed updates.
03 · Installed
Built like software your IT team can sign off on.
One signed binary for Windows and macOS with verified updates and a relaunch prompt — no silent installs. Sign-in runs in the system browser against the firm's identity realm, tokens live in OS-encrypted storage, and desktop notifications are content-free by design. The installed app is a governance surface, not an exception to it.
The architecture behind it →EdgeLex Desktopone binary · Windows & macOS↻ Relaunch with update
Signed updates — Every release is signed; the app verifies before it relaunches — no silent binaries.
Sign-in via the system browser — Authentication runs in your default browser against the firm's identity realm — the app never sees your password.
Tokens in OS-encrypted storage — Session credentials live in the operating system's encrypted store, not in files.
Native, content-free notifications — Desktop notifications tell you something needs you — never what it is.
Governed Word round-trip — Open in Word, edit natively, save back to the same version chain — checkout, baseline verification, and audit intact.
The difference
Native where it matters. Governed everywhere.
Most legal software makes you choose: a browser tab under IT’s control, or native power outside it. EdgeLex Desktop refuses the trade — real Word, real notifications, real OS integration, riding the same identity realm, the same version chain, and the same audit trail as every other surface.
And in your pocket →One signed binary
Windows and macOS, verified updates, relaunch on your click — no silent installs.
OS-grade credential care
System-browser sign-in; tokens in the OS encrypted store, never in files.
The Word bridge
Native drafting on the governed version chain — the feature that ends the export-and-pray workflow.
Capabilities
What it does
The whole workspace, one binary
Not a mail client with a logo — the entire authenticated EdgeLex workspace (Lex, matters, documents, mail, calendar, meetings, billing, admin) in one installed application.
Native OS security
Sign-in runs through the system browser with PKCE; refresh tokens live in OS-encrypted storage; the app window itself never holds long-lived credentials.
A hardened shell
Context isolation, sandboxing, no Node access from the UI, and a narrow schema-validated bridge — the desktop wrapper adds surface area for IT, not for attackers.
Governed Word workflows
From a document's version history, open a specific version in EdgeDocs or in native Microsoft Word — the desktop app carries the DMS-first launch flow end to end.
Updates on the firm's terms
A built-in Update Center with signed releases, stable and pilot channels, and one-click relaunch — with rollback if a release misbehaves.
Fits your deployment
Per-deployment signed configuration targets EdgeLex Cloud, a dedicated private deployment, or on-premises — the same binary, pointed at your infrastructure.
In your control
IT gets a signed, centrally-updated application with native credential storage — and the same governed backend as every other surface.
