Most people sign contracts without anyone reading the wording back to them. Paste a rental agreement or a service contract and the Contract Risk Scanner goes clause by clause, flags the wording that can hurt you, quotes it exactly, and explains it in plain words.

How it works

  1. Paste the contract text (500 to 30,000 characters) and pick the contract type and your side — tenant, landlord, contractor or client.
  2. The scan reads the clauses from your side of the table against a watch list of known high-risk patterns: deposit rules, entry rights, auto-renewals, shifted repair duties, unlimited liability, IP grabs, termination traps and more.
  3. Every flag carries the exact quoted line, so you can check it in your own copy before you trust it.

What you get

  • Flags sorted by severity: high risk, worth a close look, worth knowing
  • The quoted contract line behind each flag — nothing you can't verify yourself
  • A plain-words explanation with zero legal jargon, and a factual note on what the wording does
  • Honest limits: a flag whose quote can't be found in your text is dropped, and a clean scan means safer, not safe

What it won't do

It never tells you what to do — no "refuse this", no "negotiate that". It states facts and risks only, and for anything major you should talk to a lawyer. Rules differ by place; local law decides.

Questions

Is this legal advice?

No. The scan is information: it points at wording and explains what it does. It never tells you what to do with a clause. For anything major, talk to a lawyer — rules differ by place, and local law decides.

What do the severities mean?

High risk (red) means the wording can seriously hurt you. Worth a close look (yellow) means it deserves scrutiny. Worth knowing (gray) means exactly that. Flags are sorted in that order, and an uncertain match is marked so you know to double-check it.

Why did a flagged line disappear from my results?

Every flag must carry a quote that appears word for word in the text you pasted. Curly and straight quotes, line breaks and capital letters don't count as differences. If the model's quote still can't be found in your text — paraphrased, stitched together or too short to check — the flag is dropped rather than shown, and the summary says how many were left out. You only ever see flags you can verify yourself.

What if it says my text isn't a contract?

The scan runs on contracts and drafts with clause-like provisions. If you paste an essay, a news story or a product page, the result says so instead of a scan. A refused scan is still a run and uses its credits, so check that you pasted the contract itself, not a description of it.

A clean scan means the contract is safe, right?

No — it means safer, not safe. The watch list covers known high-risk patterns only; wording that is unusual in a new way can still be there. Treat a clean scan as one check among several, and use a lawyer for the decisions that matter.

What happens to my contract text?

The text is used to produce your scan. The scan findings stay in your history so you can come back to them.
