Draft non-compete agreements with the enforceability questions surfaced up front
Use Gixo when a restrictive covenant draft needs jurisdiction-aware scope, duration, step-down language, and non-solicitation structure that an employment counsel reviewer can actually defend.
An AI non-compete agreement generator is a drafting tool that produces restrictive covenant agreements with jurisdiction-aware scope, duration, and step-down structure built in. Gixo's version captures geographic and industry scope, step-down duration options, non-solicitation terms (customer and employee, with any other restriction, such as a supplier non-solicit, added through your own drafting instructions), and garden-leave/consideration language in one draft, under the governing-law jurisdiction you choose. The draft is written to treat non-compete enforceability as jurisdiction-specific and to recommend local law review, which matters most in states such as California, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, and Washington, where enforceability is restricted, so check that position with employment counsel before the document is signed. It does not decide enforceability itself — that call stays with qualified employment counsel — but it surfaces the risk and produces a reviewable first draft in minutes rather than hours or days.
What does a useful non-compete draft need?
The job is not to ask AI for a legal answer. The job is to prepare a draft or artifact that a qualified reviewer can actually work with.
Capture territory, industry vertical, customer segment, and competitor list so the scope is specific enough to defend in review.
Define primary restriction period, optional step-down phases, and fallback shorter durations so the draft holds up if a court trims scope.
Layer in customer non-solicit and employee non-solicit terms with distinct scopes and durations from the non-compete itself; any further restriction, such as a supplier non-solicit, is added through your own drafting instructions.
Capture garden-leave compensation, severance-linked restrictions, and bonus-clawback structure so the consideration question is on the page.
Set the governing-law jurisdiction during intake. The draft treats enforceability as jurisdiction-specific and recommends local law review, so counsel checks restricted jurisdictions such as California, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, and Washington early instead of after signature. Lex does not detect or rank those jurisdictions itself.
After the first draft, Lex can run a deterministic contract review: clause coverage against a versioned playbook, clause-conflict detection, and defined-term and cross-reference checks. Findings, tracked-change DOCX redlines, comments, review state, assignees, due dates, and version history all stay attached to the same document. A contract imported from Word can go back as that same DOCX, with the Lex edits shown as Word tracked changes; where Lex cannot track an edit faithfully, such as inside a field, an existing revision, a header or a footer, it refuses the export instead of altering the document. Reviewers still verify every clause and conclusion.
How does non-compete drafting work?
Define the role, the competitive concern, the legitimate business interest, and the jurisdiction the employee works in.
Define the activities restricted, the territory, the period, and the step-down options so the draft is specific and defensible.
Add customer and employee non-solicit terms with their own scope, capture the consideration paid for the restriction, and reference the underlying employment agreement.
Send to employment counsel inside the workspace, capture redlines and approval, then export in PDF, DOCX, HTML, and TXT.
