Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant adds generative AI features focused on contracts

Adobe announced new intelligent contract capabilities in Acrobat AI Assistant to simplify working with contracts. The new generative AI features can help customers grasp complex terms and spot differences between multiple agreements so they can better understand and verify the information in these important documents faster and easier. Features include:

  • Contract intelligence: Acrobat AI Assistant automatically recognizes when a document is a contract—including scanned documents—and tailors the experience, generating a contract overview, surfacing key terms in a single click, quickly summarizing information and recommending questions specific to customers’ documents.
  • Straightforward explanations—verified: Acrobat AI Assistant generates summaries and responses with clear language and clickable citations, making it fast and easy to navigate to the source and verify responses.
  • Compare and contrast: Quickly see differences between versions​, check for consistency and catch discrepancies​ across up to 10 contracts, including scanned documents.
  • Secure sharing and signing: Easily review contracts with stakeholders and request e-signatures all in one app.

Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant supplements LLM technologies with the same artificial intelligence and machine learning models behind Liquid Mode to provide a highly accurate understanding of document structure and content, which enhances the quality and reliability of AI Assistant’s outputs.

Perplexity introduces Sonar Pro API

With Perplexity’s Sonar and Sonar Pro API (the latter generally available to all developers starting today), you can build your own generative search capabilities powered with real-time, web-wide research and Perplexity features. We’re also expanding public access to advanced features like JSON mode and search domain filters for select usage tiers. 

The Sonar API is lightweight, affordable, fast, simple to use, and now includes citations and the ability to customize sources. It’s designed for companies who need to integrate lightweight question-and-answer features that are optimized for speed. 

For enterprises seeking more advanced capabilities, the Sonar Pro API can handle in-depth, multi-step queries with added extensibility, like double the number of citations per search as Sonar on average. Plus, with a larger context window, it can handle longer and more nuanced searches and follow-up questions. 

SimpleQA is the prevailing benchmark for factuality, designed to evaluate whether large language models can answer short, fact-seeking questions. Sonar Pro is a top-performing model on factuality because it combines the summarization power of LLMs with access to real-time information rather than relying on stored training data to answer questions.

Contextual AI launches platform for building specialized RAG agents

Contextual AI, an enterprise RAG company, announced the general availability (GA) of the Contextual AI Platform, helping enterprises build specialized RAG agents to support expert knowledge work.

While there is broad consensus that general-purpose AI agents are poised to streamline many generic tasks, Contextual AI believes that specialized RAG agents will instead be required to transform high-value, domain-specific knowledge work.

Contextual AI has released public benchmark results demonstrating better performance in advanced RAG workflows across enterprise domains than Anthropic’s Claude 3.5 Sonnet and OpenAI’s GPT-4o.

The Contextual AI Platform includes all the capabilities needed to build, evaluate, and deploy specialized RAG agents, helping accelerate AI initiatives from pilot to production.

Enterprises can use the Contextual AI Platform to create specialized RAG agents that intelligently orchestrate retrieval and generation based on conversational context, delivering accurate responses for complex knowledge tasks across large corpora of structured and unstructured enterprise data. The Contextual AI Platform is powered by RAG 2.0, jointly optimizing the retriever and the generator in the RAG system.
