Comparison
Clauze or ChatGPT for Tunisian law?
A general-purpose assistant and a Tunisian legal tool aren't answering the same question.
In short
ChatGPT is a general-purpose assistant, useful for writing, rephrasing or translating. For a question on Tunisian law, Clauze answers from a corpus of 73,635 Tunisian legal texts, compares every citation with the actual text of the article before showing it, and says when it has no source instead of making one up.

Point by point
| Clauze | General-purpose assistant (ChatGPT…) | |
|---|---|---|
| Where answers come from | 73,635 Tunisian texts, legislation and case law | General training data and, in some cases, web search |
| Citations | Compared with the article's text before display, linked to the source | Not checked against the official text; article numbers are sometimes wrong |
| Status of texts | “In force” or “repealed” shown | Not guaranteed |
| Case law in Arabic | Searched alongside texts in French | Limited and unsystematic access |
| When there is no source | The assistant says so | Often produces a plausible answer |
| Beyond law | Focused on legal practice | Very broad: writing, code, translation… |
A comparison of uses, not of one AI model against another: the difference lies in the corpus and the citation check.
When a general-purpose assistant is enough
To rephrase a letter, summarise a text you provide, or translate a paragraph, a general-purpose assistant does the job well.
Once the answer has to rest on an article of Tunisian law or a specific decision, the risk changes: a wrong citation or a repealed text is costly in court or with a client. That is the risk Clauze addresses.
Frequently asked questions
Does ChatGPT know Tunisian law?
It knows parts of it from its training data, but it doesn't work from a complete Tunisian corpus and doesn't check its citations against the official text of the articles.
Does Clauze use an AI model like ChatGPT?
Clauze uses a large language model to write, but from the Tunisian texts it retrieves, and it checks every citation against the text before showing it.
