Inspiration

Legal Documents are long & confusing, which makes it difficult to understand for non-lawyers. This inspired me to create Jurisio , a tool that will transform complex document into simple text.

What it does

Simplifies the legal document uploaded via direct file or through pasting the text in textbox. Generates the summary and explains about a particular section when prompted by user. Uses browser functions & API thus ensuring privacy of user and help user trust the web application. The user can understand & compare the simplified version with the original version for better understanding.

How we built it

Built it using Vite + React. Prompt API : generates simplified text. Rewriter API: gives explanation of selected text. Summarizer API: gives summary of the document. Uses open-source libraries for extracting the text from the files.

Challenges we ran into

The chrome API's were not available during initial phase of development, so as a fallback procedure the program also utilizes the Google Gemini AI for simplification of the document. Had to create a user-friendly application through which the user won't be overwhelmed by the text on screen while also understanding the document. Find a way to ensure the data privacy of user so that the user will feel safe to upload the document; this is achieved with help of React by generating session-id for ecah session.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Successfully integrated Prompt, Rewriter & Summarizer API. System in which the data doesn't get stored to maintain user privacy. Turned complex problem into a user-friendly prototype.

What we learned

To use Chrome's local AI capabilities for text applications. Importance of prompt tuning for preserving the actual meaning of document. Designing UI/UX for accessibility & readability.
