Step 2: Accessing the Vincent Interface

Once you are logged into the main vLex platform, there are two easy ways to open Vincent:

  2. The Top-Right Button: Click on the large blue Vincent button located in the top right corner of the screen, next to your profile icon.

Step 3: Navigating the Main Screen

Both options will take you to the main Vincent landing page. Here is a quick tour of what you will see:

  • Workflow Library (Center): This is the heart of Vincent. In the center of the screen, you will find the library of all available workflows, such as Ask a Research Question or Analyze a Contract.

  • History Panel (Left): Your previous conversations and analyses are stored here. You can click on any past item to view the results without having to run the search again.

  • Question Bar (Top): At the top, you will see the main input box where you can type a question or start a workflow.

The main Vincent screen gives you access to the workflow library and your history.

Best Practices & Pro Tips

  • Start with a Workflow: The easiest way to get started is to choose one of the pre-built workflows from the central library.

  • Use Your History: Your history panel is a great way to save time. If you need to refer back to a previous analysis, always check your history first.
