Adobe’s Acrobat AI assistant
The AI assistant is a $5/month add-on to Adobe Acrobat that offers summary features similar to Apple Intelligence.
One-click generative summary automatically pulls key points from your doc to help you find important info fast. Available on desktop and web.
Chat with multiple documents and transcripts all at once so you can find key themes and takeaways — without switching tabs.
When you use AI Assistant, your documents are protected — and your content is not used to train generative AI models.
Now with contracts features
Engadget reports that the feature can now understand and compare contracts.
Adobe has updated the Acrobat AI Assistant, giving it the ability to understand contracts and to compare them for you. The company says it can help you make sense of complex terms and spot differences between agreements, such as between old and new ones, so you can understand what you’re signing. With the AI Assistant enabled, the Acrobat app will be able to recognize if a document is a contract, even if it’s a scanned page. It can identify and list key terms from there, summarize the document’s contents and recommend questions you can ask based on what’s in it.
The feature can also compare up to 10 contracts with one another and be able to check for differences and catch discrepancies.
It would take a braver person than I to trust an AI system to summarize a contract, but if you’re feeling lucky and don’t mind laying out five bucks a month for the privilege, please report back …
