Contract Explainer
Breaks down legal contracts into plain English so you know exactly what you're signing.
About This Tool
This is a tool for anyone who's ever felt overwhelmed by a 20-page contract. It identifies standard clauses in things like employment offers, leases, or NDAs and explains them in normal language. It highlights your obligations, risks, and any 'red flags' hidden in the fine print.
It isn't a replacement for a lawyer; it's an 'informed reading' assistant to help you understand the document before you sign it.
The Problem It Solves
Contracts are often dense on purpose, making it easy to overlook a 'gotcha' clause or a one-sided agreement. This app removes that barrier, providing literal translations of legal jargon so you aren't guessing about your rights.
When to Use This
- You just got a new job offer and want to understand non-compete or termination clauses.
- You're reviewing a rental lease and want to see if any terms are unusual.
- You've been asked to sign an NDA and want to know exactly what counts as 'confidential.'
How It Works
The app uses an LLM that knows common legal templates. It separates 'boilerplate' from custom language, looks for definitions, liability limits, and termination rules, and explains them simply.
