Adobe Updates Acrobat AI Assistant with Contract Analysis Capabilities

Adobe has enhanced its Acrobat AI Assistant, granting it the ability to comprehend contracts and compare them for users. The company claims that this feature can help individuals make sense of complex terms and identify differences between agreements, such as between old and new ones, thereby enabling users to understand what they’re signing.

Key Features of the Acrobat AI Assistant

With the AI Assistant enabled, the Acrobat app can:

• Recognize if a document is a contract, even if it’s a scanned page
• Identify and list key terms from the document
• Summarize the document’s contents
• Recommend questions to ask based on the document’s content

Comparing Multiple Contracts

The feature can also compare up to 10 contracts with one another and detect differences and discrepancies. Once the comparison is complete, users can sign the document directly or request e-signatures from colleagues or clients.

Potential Uses for the Feature

Adobe has listed a few potential uses for the feature, including:

• Verifying out-of-country charges for mobile plans
• Comparing perks or amenities of competing services
• Checking apartment leases

Limitations and Pricing

While the feature has the potential to be highly useful, users must trust the AI assistant to accurately identify important information and detect both small and significant changes between different contracts. The Acrobat AI Assistant is not free and will cost $5 per month, regardless of whether users are already paying for Adobe’s other services and products.

Conclusion

If the feature works properly, it could be one of Acrobat AI’s most useful features, given that users open billions of contracts each month on the Acrobat app. However, users should be aware that the feature is not free and requires a subscription.
