Contract Lens

What am I actually signing? — a plain-English risk review.

How it works

Nothing to hand? — a deliberately one-sided consulting MSA a fictional four-person studio just received from a big client.

1

Paste the contract

The instant prescan flags obvious patterns — Net-90, uncapped liability, auto-renewal — free, before you run anything.

2

The AI reads every clause

Eight risk categories, from payment terms to audit rights. Every flag quotes the exact clause text, explains the problem against market norms, and notes what is missing entirely.

3

Negotiate from the playbook

For each flag: what to ask for, how to frame it on the call, and what a reasonable compromise looks like. Export the whole review as Markdown.

Derived from the @anthropics/contract-review skill on SkillSafe. Not legal advice.

Questions people ask

What can I do without paying?

The instant prescan runs entirely in your browser the moment you paste: thirteen pattern rules for things like Net-90 payment terms, uncapped liability and auto-renewal, plus six checks for protections that are absent altogether. The revision check and the bundled example review are also free. Only the full clause-by-clause review calls the model, and the price shown before you run it is the maximum reserved — you pay what the run actually uses.

What do I actually send the other side?

Use Copy the ask email. It turns the review into a message to the counterparty containing only the flags you marked Must have or Negotiable, each with the current wording quoted, what you are asking for, and the fallback you would accept. The Markdown export is your own working notes and is not written to be forwarded.

They sent a revised version. Do I have to pay for a second review?

Not to see what moved. Paste the revised text over the old one and the free revision check compares it against your previous run clause by clause, reporting which flagged clauses are still word for word identical, which were reworded, and which are gone. It does not claim anything was fixed — a reworded clause can be worse — so run the full review again when the changes are substantive.

My contract is very long. Does it read all of it?

Up to 200,000 characters. Past that, Contract Lens keeps the opening and the closing and drops the middle, because a contract states its liability caps, indemnities and termination terms at the back, in the exhibits and schedules. The cut is labelled in the text sent to the model and shown to you on the page, so nothing is removed silently.
