# AI Personal Document Summaries

_Insurance docs, school packets, medical reports, legal letters. Translated into plain language._

Alice is your AI Personal Assistant on [Sistava](/en).

Personal paperwork is dense, jargon-filled, and easy to misread. Alice translates. Insurance documents get the coverage and exclusions in plain language. School packets get the action items and deadlines pulled out. Medical reports get the bottom line and the questions worth asking.

Action items are spelled out clearly. Deadlines flagged. Important parts highlighted. The original is always one click away if you want to read it yourself.

Getting a document to her is one step. Attach it to a chat message and she reads it as part of the conversation, with no separate upload and no processing wait. PDFs, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OpenDocument, plain text, CSV, and images all come through, tables included, and every attachment lands in her Drive so you can find it again months later.

You do not have to say what to look for. She reads the whole thing and decides what affects you: the deadline, the exclusion, the amount, the thing you have to sign. If the document raises a question only you can answer, she asks it rather than guessing at an interpretation.

Where she genuinely earns the time back is the second document. A policy renewal read against last year, a quote read against the previous quote, a report read against the one from six months ago. She holds both, so the answer to "what changed" takes a sentence instead of an evening.

Read the original yourself when the document is legal, medical, or financial. Her summary is built to save you a second reading and to tell you where to look, not to be the thing you rely on in a dispute. Every summary points back at the passage it came from for exactly that reason.

## What you get

- Action items spelled out so you know what to do next.
- Deadlines flagged with timer warnings.
- Jargon explained in plain language with definitions.
- Worth-paying-attention parts highlighted in the original.

## How it works

1. **Reads the doc:** PDF, scanned image, photo, or printed mail. Alice ingests and indexes.
2. **Pulls what affects you:** Action items, deadlines, costs, exclusions, conditions — surfaced first.
3. **Tells you exactly what to do next:** Plain-language summary with clear next steps. Original linked for verification.
4. **Turns the deadlines into tracked items:** A date in a document is a date you will forget. On the board with a reminder attached, it is a date that comes back to you in time.
5. **Files it where you will find it:** Every attachment lands in her Drive, searchable later by who it concerns, who sent it, or what it was about.

## FAQ

### Medical reports too?

Yes. Lab results, after-visit summaries, specialist notes — all summarized with questions worth asking your doctor.

### School forms?

Yes. Action items pulled, deadlines flagged, signature lines identified.

### Will she fill them in?

For digital forms, drafts are pre-filled with your info for one-tap submit. For paper, the answers are drafted for you to write in.

### What file types can she read?

PDFs, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files, their OpenDocument equivalents, RTF, plain text, CSV, JSON, XML, and images. Tables come through as tables. There is no conversion step for you to run first.

### Can she compare this year against last year?

Yes, and it is the most useful thing she does here. Give her both and ask what changed, and the answer comes back as a short list of differences that matter rather than two summaries you have to read side by side.

### Should I still read the original?

For anything legal, medical, or financial, yes. The summary is there so you know which three paragraphs to read closely instead of all forty. She links back to the passage behind every point for that reason.
