The Glossary lets you define preferred translations, definitions, and interpretations for key terms used in your documents. Emma includes these definitions in its AI prompts when extracting key terms, generating red flag summaries, and assigning risk levels. To access the glossary, go to Settings > Organization settings > Glossary.
Why use the glossary?
Organizations often use terms with specific, local, or firm-defined meanings that differ from standard legal or business definitions. Entering precise definitions or preferred translations for such terms ensures Emma's AI correctly interprets them when analyzing your documents. This improves the consistency and relevance of extracted terms, summaries, and risk evaluations across all your data rooms.
Adding definitions
Definitions are managed separately for each language. Select your target language from the left panel to edit its glossary.
Write definitions in plain text. A recommended format is:
Term: definition or preferred translation
For example:
EBITDA: Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Treat as a measure of operational profitability. Aandeelhouder: Shareholder. Use "shareholder" in all English summaries.
Click Save when done.
Clearing a glossary
Click Clear glossary at the bottom of the editor to remove all definitions for that language. You will be asked to confirm, as this action cannot be undone.
Which languages to fill in
You only need to add glossaries for languages that appear in your documents. Languages with at least one definition show a checkmark in the language list so you can track which ones have been set up.
If you need additional help with the glossary or encounter any other problem, don't hesitate to reach out to us through the chat bubble in the bottom right or contact [email protected].
