About the App – How Simplify Works

Contract Clarity Studio, explained.

Simplify (Contract Clarity Studio) is a research‑based drafting tool that untangles complex legal language and turns it into clear, readable English while maintaining legal accuracy. Think of it as a smart co‑pilot for lawyers, businesses, and anyone who needs to understand what a contract really says.

The Idea Behind Simplify

A linguistic engine for clearer contracts.

It breaks down how contracts are written, highlights what makes them complicated, and helps you rebuild them in clearer, fairer ways. Inspired by plain‑language design and powered by Gemini 3 AI models that understand legal logic.

01

Drafting support

Rewrites dense clauses into plain English and highlights confusing sections. Side‑by‑side alternatives are delivered in an annotated `.docx` report.

02

Visual Architect

Turns paragraphs into visuals: timelines, fee tables, responsibility matrices, and flowcharts for conditions.

03

Key Terms Summary (TLDR)

Persona‑based summaries (Tenant, Supplier, etc.), each backed by a direct quote for instant verification.

04

Complexity metrics

Measures sentence length, word structure, and language complexity for a clear readability profile.

05

Clarity & balance check

Flags uneven or unclear language. Not legal advice — a focused signal for review.

06

Clarity certification

How Readability Is Measured

Scores plus explanations.

Classical linguistic formulas plus syntactic analysis — so you know the score and the reason behind it.

1

Flesch Reading Ease (FKRC)

0–100 scale. Higher scores are easier to read; lower scores indicate complex writing. Uses sentence length and syllables per word.

2

Gunning Fog Index (GF)

Translates readability into an education level. Legal contracts often score 16–20 (postgraduate difficulty).

3

Syllable counting logic

Counts vowel groups, ignores silent vowels, and ensures every word counts as at least one syllable.

4

Syntactic density analysis

Flags passive voice, long sentences (20+ words), and legalese density to pinpoint where clarity can improve.

5

Interpreting results

Combines scores into a clarity profile so you know what is hard to read and why.

6

Score ranges

90–100 very easy, 60–70 standard, 30–50 difficult, 0–30 very difficult.

Privacy‑first, practical, and fast.

Processes data locally when possible, includes Redaction Mode, and supports OCR for PDFs or photos. The interface is clean, fast, and available in English, French, and German.

Simplify’s mission is simple: remove the fog from legal writing so you can see what is really said, what could be clearer, and how to create contracts that are readable, responsible, and transparent.
