UBITECH introduces Generative AI for Legal Contracts Review at Hellenic Cadastre

UBITECH AiLabs is proud to announce its successful implementation of a state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Generative AI solution for the Hellenic Cadastre, marking a groundbreaking step forward in the digital transformation of public administration in Greece. As the first public body in the country to adopt AI technology for administrative decision-making, the Hellenic Cadastre is leading the way toward faster and more efficient public services.

The tool developed by UBITECH AiLabs leverages advanced AI and Generative AI technologies to accelerate the legal review process of contracts handled by the heads of the relevant departments within the Hellenic Cadastre. By automating and streamlining this critical task, the AI-driven solution is expected to significantly reduce processing times, enhance accuracy, and improve overall decision-making efficiency.

Previously, department heads were required to manually review contracts, some of which could be as long as 200 pages, to extract necessary information and apply legal checks. This process took an average of 30 minutes per contract, making it time-consuming and prone to delays. The newly implemented AI solution, currently in pilot phase across the country, offers the following key features and impacts: a) Natural Language Processing (NLP): The AI tool can read contract text in natural language, understanding the structure and content without human intervention; 2) Automated Document Classification: It identifies the type of legal transaction and pinpoints the essential elements required for legal verification based on existing regulations; 3) Automatic Compliance Checks: The system performs automatic completeness checks for mandatory contract elements, such as tax compliance and clearance certificates; and 4) Automated Recommendations: The AI generates automatic recommendations for the approval or rejection of specific contract elements, assisting department heads in their decision-making process.

This AI-powered tool represents a transformative step in the digital evolution of public sector operations, significantly improving both the speed and reliability of legal reviews in the Hellenic Cadastre. In particular, the developed solution results in a) significant time savings, as the tool dramatically reduces contract review time from an average of 30 minutes to just a few minutes; b) increased efficiency, by automating routine tasks, department heads can focus on more complex issues, thus improving overall efficiency; and c) enhanced accuracy, the AI-driven checks reduce the risk of human error, ensuring that contracts meet all legal requirements.

This significant initiative is part of a broader effort by the Ministry of Digital Governance and the Hellenic Cadastre to modernize public services through the adoption of cutting-edge technologies. The collaboration with UBITECH AiLabs further underscores the potential of AI to transform traditional administrative processes and deliver more effective and transparent public sector operations.
