How AI Legal Document Summarization Works
Our legal document summarization engine uses natural language processing (NLP) and
machine learning algorithms specifically designed for legal text. Here’s the process:
Document Upload & Analysis
Upload any legal document in PDF, DOCX, or TXT format. Our system instantly recognizes document type—whether it's a contract, brief, deposition, or memorandum.
Intelligent Extraction
The AI identifies key clauses, parties involved, dates, obligations, rights, and critical legal provisions while understanding context and legal significance.
Hierarchical Summarization
Generate summaries at multiple levels—executive summaries for quick overview, section-by-section breakdowns for detailed review, or custom-length summaries based on your needs. Once summarized, use those facts to build a case timeline for litigation strategy.
Accuracy Verification
Our system highlights extracted information with source references, allowing you to verify accuracy and trace back to original text instantly.
