Have you ever had a burning contract question but don’t have the time to dig through your repository or don’t know who in your legal team to ask?

With Ask SIA, this is no longer an issue!

Ask SIA is Summize’s new AI-powered chatbot that answers all your contract and workflow related questions! Accessible by anyone in your business, it removes any timely delays and provides you with the simple and concise answers you need.

Why do you need Ask SIA?

Ask SIA is a vital feature of Summize’s Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) software, that involves the ENTIRE business in the contract management process, but without the admin and hassle.

Think of those times when you need a quick answer about a contract review, a payment term or you’re unsure of a contract’s stage in the negotiation cycle.

Yes, you can simply ask your legal team, or search in your Summize repository, but why not make it even easier? With Ask SIA, you will receive the information you need in a matter of seconds.

Ask SIA for legal teams

Ask SIA provides two clear benefits for legal teams:

  1. Provides you with quick access to contract information and data at the touch of a button
  2. Reduces the legal queue and contract related questions from your wider business

In short, Ask SIA provides efficiency. Whether this is instant answers to questions about your task list, a contract clause, data around negotiation tasks or comparing redrafts to existing contracts.

Simply Ask SIA your question and Ask SIA will scan all your pre- and post-signature contracts to provide you with a clear answer.

If you’re not sure what kind of questions you can ask, take a look at the following examples:

  • How many tasks are outstanding on the TechFlow request?
  • Can TechFlow Ltd increase the fees during the term? If so, how much?
  • What is TechFlow Ltd's liability cap in the contract we signed with them? Are there any carve-outs from the cap?
  • How did I redraft the payment terms for the TechFlow agreement?


The opportunities are endless!

Ask SIA for the wider business

Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) solutions help remove legal bottlenecks from the contract process. CLM software speeds up the contract lifecycle, providing visibility across the board and enabling the likes of company stakeholders and management to access key data and information. So why not take it one step further and make access to information even easier?

Ask SIA does just this.

Via the feature’s easy-to-use chatbot experience existing within popular Summize integrations, everyone in the business can Ask SIA a contract, request or workflow even Summize training question.

For example:

  • What is the status of my latest request?
  • Do we have a signed NDA with TechFlow? And if so, how long does it last?
  • Who in the legal team is working on my sales agreement?


Simply ask your question and receive a clear answer, without the legal jargon!

How does Ask SIA work?

Ask SIA is powered by Summize Intelligent Agents (SIA). SIA is our agentic approach to AI, meaning that multiple AI agents work together to provide you with quick, accurate, and concise information.

Our agentic AI approach works in silos, meaning that Ask SIA only has access to your tenant’s contract workflows and repository - keeping your information fully private and secure.

Using the contracts created, requested and stored within Summize, our AI agents work together to scan the information so that you receive a quick and concise response.

And if you have further questions or would like to go more in-depth? Just continue the conversation in the chatbot experience.
