Summize AI Breaks Down Language Barriers in Contract Negotiations

How Summize AI Breaks Down Language Barriers in Contract Negotiations

In today's global business scene, dealing with contracts often means navigating different languages and international borders. For a long time, language differences have been a challenge, causing confusion, delays, extra costs, and legal issues.  

That’s where the Summize AI Assistant comes into its own as the trusted language translator for in-house legal teams.

The Power of Summize AI and the AI Assistant   

Summize AI brings speed, automation and intelligence to the way your legal and commercial teams create, negotiate and manage contracts across the entire business. The AI Assistant acts as a super-smart assistant for legal teams during contract drafting and review.

The AI Assistant allows you to ask questions of your contract, compare to Playbook and even translate clauses into other languages, perfect for sharing with global colleagues or external parties.  

We’ve heard from clients who have previously incurred long wait times in negotiations until their German or French-speaking lawyers are able to give feedback on the contract. Now, the language capabilities of Summize AI allow huge savings in time and cost, without having to rely on bilingual team members or translators.

From la langue française (French) to el lenguaje español (Spanish), język polski (Polish) and more, we’ve got you covered.
