Tolmach — complex texts in plain language

Tolmach is an extension that explains complex documents and texts in plain, human language. Upload a PDF, contract, insurance policy, bank document, medical summary, offer, terms of service, manual, technical specification, official reply, or any confusing text — Tolmach helps you quickly understand what it says, where the important terms are, where the risks may be, and what you should clarify. It helps whenever the wording is hard but you need a decision fast — without guesswork. Tolmach is not just a short summary. It helps you truly understand: it explains the meaning, highlights what matters, surfaces risks, penalties, limits, auto-charges, ambiguous clauses, and suggests what you could improve. Three analysis modes 1. Explain For when you simply need to understand a document. Tolmach explains difficult text in simple terms: what kind of document it is, what it is about, the main terms, what is asked of you, what you receive, what you agree to, and which points you must not miss. Useful when you do not want to read dozens of pages of legal, banking, medical, technical, or bureaucratic language. 2. Risks For when you need to see where problems could appear. Tolmach looks for red flags: penalties, hidden fees, auto-renewals, auto-debits, limits on your rights, one-sided changes, liability, disputed clauses, inconvenient jurisdiction, vague wording, and terms that could be used against you. This mode helps you quickly answer questions like: — Where could I lose money? — Where could I be restricted? — What could go wrong? — Which terms should I clarify before signing? — Are there hidden obligations? — Are there clauses that look unfavorable? 3. Improve For when you want not only to understand a document but to make it safer and clearer. Tolmach shows what you could ask to change, which wording to clarify, where to add a liability cap, where to remove ambiguity, where to ask for clear timelines, termination terms, carve-outs, limits, or fairer wording. Especially useful for contracts, offers, NDAs, agreements with clients, contractors, employers, banks, insurers, and online services. What you can analyze in Tolmach Legal contracts NDAs, service agreements, work contracts, sale/purchase, agency agreements, certificates of work, powers of attorney, agreements with clients, contractors, and partners. Tolmach helps clarify each side’s duties, liability, penalties, timelines, termination, rights to deliverables, confidentiality, restrictions, and disputed terms. Medical documents Discharge summaries, protocols, conclusions, referrals, prescriptions, lab results, CT/MRI narratives, physician recommendations, and dense medical wording. Tolmach helps translate complex medical language: what the document states, which values stand out, which recommendations were given, and which questions to ask your doctor. Important: Tolmach does not diagnose and is not a substitute for a clinician. It helps you understand the text and prepare questions for a professional.
