Working with Word (.docx)
Open any .docx as a first-class document, edit it with AI agents, and save back to Word with headings, footnotes, tables, and citations preserved.
Microsoft Word is where most academic writing actually lives — and Multilo is the first AI editor that treats .docx as a first-class document instead of an obstacle. Open a Word file, work on it with agents, and save it back as Word with everything intact.
Open a .docx
Drag a .docx into your project, or open it from the file list. Multilo parses the Word structure — headings, lists, tables, footnotes, and in-text citations — and renders it in the AI-native editor. From here it behaves like any other Multilo document.
Edit with agents
Every agent works on a Word document exactly as it does on a fresh draft. Polish the language, tighten a section, reformat citations between styles, run Claim Check, or let the Full Draft Writer extend a chapter — all directly on the document you opened.
Save back to Word
Make your edits
Write and run agents as usual. Multilo tracks the document structure as you go.Export to .docx
Save back to Word. Multilo writes a.docxwith your edits applied to the original structure.Hand it in
Your supervisor, co-author, or journal opens an ordinary Word document — they never see Markdown or any sign of the tooling underneath.
The round trip is the point
The whole value is that.docx goes in and .docx comes out. You get AI agents on your real document without changing the format your institution expects.What’s preserved
