Summize launches AI-driven CLM platform with intelligent agents to speed contract reviews, automate redlines, and unlock actionable insights.
Summize has launched its next-generation Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) platform, powered by agentic AI. The new platform introduces Summize Intelligent Agents (SIA) to revolutionize how in-house legal teams manage contracts. SIA is designed to mimic the collaborative efforts of legal professionals by employing multiple AI agents that can think and act like lawyers, enhancing contract review accuracy, accelerating redlining, and generating actionable contract summaries at unprecedented speed.
Greg Merrick, Chief Administration Officer at Castlerock, expressed enthusiasm for Summize SIA, stating, "Our initial reactions about Summize SIA are very positive. We are intrigued by multi-agents and believe this is where AI is heading. We’re glad to see Summize is leading the way. This approach not only improves workflow efficiency but redefines how contract reviews and management are done."
Key Features of Summize’s Enhanced CLM Platform
- Review Pro: This feature identifies non-compliant or missing clauses, provides AI-driven contract redlining, and suggests revisions with automated comments directly within Microsoft Word, thereby reducing review times and enhancing negotiation accuracy.
- Ask SIA: A conversational AI interface that answers contract and workflow questions using data from both pre- and post-signature documents. It extracts critical contract data, identifies trends, terms, obligations, and risks, transforming complex legal language into easily understandable summaries to aid strategic decisions and uncover revenue opportunities. Legal teams can now benefit from instant responses to contract inquiries, a reduction in repetitive review tasks, and improved visibility into contract data, all while maintaining complete legal oversight and control. Sarah Irwin, CEO and founder of ITGC Consulting and former in-house general counsel, highlighted the value of SIA by remarking, “Summize’s new AI agentic experience means you have a whole AI team by your side, as its AI agents think like lawyers, act like lawyers, and help you throughout the whole contract process. It’s a new approach to contracting.” The AI enhancements are built upon Summize's existing CLM foundation, integrating deeper automation and intelligence into daily legal workflows. The platform offers native integrations with widely adopted tools such as Microsoft Outlook, Gmail, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Salesforce, and Jira, promoting widespread adoption across organizations. Tom Dunlop, CEO and co-founder of Summize, emphasized the platform's focus on addressing pressing customer needs: “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. 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 serves legal, procurement, and operations teams globally, aiming to simplify and scale contract processes. Its seamless integration with Microsoft 365 and other leading tools, coupled with enterprise-grade security, ensures compliance and a smooth fit within existing technology stacks. The company's rapid growth is evidenced by accolades such as the 2025 Legalweek Leaders in Tech Law Award, ranking as the No. 8 fastest-growing tech company in the U.K. in the 2024 Deloitte Technology Fast 50, and earning over 28 High Performer badges from G2 Spring 2025 Awards. Summize will be demonstrating its AI-powered CLM solution at the CLOC Global Institute in Las Vegas from May 5-8 at booth #109.
