# Ask the contract. Get the clause back.

Open a contract and ask Avy what it says: who can terminate, what the notice period is, what happens on a breach. Avy answers in plain language and cites the clause. To ask the same question across every contract, use Aavenir Atlas.

Definition

## What is AI contract interrogation?

AI contract interrogation means asking a contract questions in plain language and getting answers drawn from its clauses, with the source cited, instead of reading it end to end.
In Aavenir, [Avy](https://aavenir.com/platform/avy-ai-assistant/) interrogates the contract in front of you. Repository interrogation, the same question across the whole portfolio, runs in [Aavenir Atlas](https://aavenir.com/solutions/ai-contract-intelligence/).

- Plain language questions about a single contract

- Every answer cites the clause it relies on

- Spot compare a clause with your standard language

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

## Common questions

###

### What is the difference between interrogation and search?

Interrogation asks one contract a question and Avy answers from its clauses. AI contract search and Aavenir Atlas answer questions across many contracts at once and list every match. Both cite the clauses they use. [See AI contract search](https://aavenir.com/platform/ai-contract-search/).

###

### Can I ask the same question across all my contracts?

Yes, with Aavenir Atlas. Atlas runs one question across the whole portfolio, such as which contracts need consent on an acquisition, and returns the contracts and clauses involved. [See Aavenir Atlas](https://aavenir.com/solutions/ai-contract-intelligence/).

###

### Are the answers reliable?

Every answer cites the clause it relies on, so a reader can open it and check before acting. Avy answers questions and does not change the contract, and a person makes every decision. [Meet Avy](https://aavenir.com/platform/avy-ai-assistant/).
