Create a summary for a long and complex document

Notification: The AI summary feature in Collavate is available for free to all users during the beta period. This feature allows you to summarize any document with limited functionality until its official release.

Legal documents such as contracts and proposals are often long and complex, making it difficult to quickly grasp important information. Many global companies are shifting to mobile devices for work, but reviewing such documents on small screens is challenging. 

Collavate’s AI summary feature helps you quickly understand the key points of a document, even on small screens, by automatically summarizing important content, thus enhancing productivity. The generated summaries reduce unnecessary communication and help all stakeholders make informed decisions based on consistent information.
