Summize releases AI-powered CLM with intelligent agents

Summize, a leader in contract lifecycle management (CLM) solutions, is releasing its next-generation CLM platform, introducing agentic AI with Summize Intelligent Agents (SIA) to give in-house legal teams powerful new ways to review contracts, improve redline accuracy, and surface actionable summaries faster than ever before.

Summize’s new agentic, multi-agent approach to AI underpins its entire CLM software, which replicates how lawyers review more complex agreements.

This makes SIA useful not just for low-risk, high-volume contracts but also for the more intricate, higher-stakes ones, according to the company.

Rather than relying on a singular AI to handle complex tasks, SIA functions as a whole team of AI agents, each performing specific roles, validating outputs, and ensuring accuracy at every stage.

Summize’s enhanced CLM features include:

• Review Pro identifies non-compliant and missing clauses, provides AI contract redlining, revision suggestions and automated document comments directly inside Microsoft Word, cutting review times and providing faster and more accurate contract negotiations.
• Ask SIA, a conversational AI interface, answers contract- and workflow-related questions using data from pre- and post-signature documents to deliver information quickly and efficiently. Ask SIA provides advanced analysis by extracting contract data and trends, terms, obligations, and risks that transform dense legal language into business-friendly summaries for more strategic decision-making and revenue-generating opportunities.

Legal teams can now instantly respond to the business's contract questions, reduce time spent on repetitive reviews, and gain visibility into contract data across the lifecycle. All of this is done entirely with legal oversight, so in-house lawyers are in control of the entire process but not responsible for managing low-value manual processes.

The enhanced AI features build upon the company’s existing CLM foundation, adding deeper automation and intelligence into everyday workflows.

Summize is built for the entire business by natively embedding its CLM and contract workflows into the most-used software tools—Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Salesforce, and Jira—encouraging company-wide use and adoption.

“In-house legal teams are being asked to move faster without sacrificing accuracy or control. Our new release leverages agentic AI to better manage routine legal tasks, helping teams do more strategic work to move their businesses forward,” said Tom Dunlop, CEO and co-founder of Summize. “At Summize, we’ve always been keen to innovate first, ahead of the market. Our agentic AI experience is unlike other offerings in that it was developed to solve the most pressing problems our customers face and not created to replace every single aspect of a legal function.”

Summize is used by legal, procurement, and operations teams around the world to simplify and scale contract processes. The platform’s integration with Microsoft 365 and other leading tools, combined with its enterprise-grade security, ensures it fits seamlessly into existing tech stacks while meeting compliance and regulatory standards, the company said.
