Real risks caught by ClauseGuard this week
Unlimited liability — no cap on damages
SaaS Vendor Agreement · §7.1
Auto-renewal with 90-day notice window
Office Lease Renewal · §6.4
IP assignment covers all derivative work
Consulting Agreement · §5.2
Average contract contains 2.4 high-risk clauses worth $340K+ in potential liability
The risk you're taking
One clause can cost you more than your entire legal budget.
A hidden auto-renewal locks you into $480K over 3 years. An IP assignment on page 12 means you don't own your own work. An unlimited liability provision means one mistake could end your company.
Lawyers charge $200–$500/hour and take 3–5 days. Your deal closes tomorrow. So you skim, sign, and hope for the best.
That's not a strategy. That's a liability.
What ClauseGuard catches in 12 seconds
Unlimited liability — no cap on damages
If your software causes a data breach, you could be liable for the entire $2.3M contract value plus consequential damages with no ceiling.
IP assignment covers all “feedback” and derivative works
Anything you build, suggest, or create in connection with this vendor becomes their intellectual property permanently.
No limitation of liability clause
Standard contracts cap liability at 1x annual contract value. This contract has no cap — your exposure is theoretically unlimited.
Do not sign. Add a limitation of liability clause capping damages at 1x annual contract value, remove the feedback IP assignment, and negotiate the auto-renewal notice window from 90 to 30 days.

See it in action
Real redlines. Three tones. Your choice.
Every risky clause gets specific replacement language — not generic advice. Choose the tone that matches your relationship with the counterparty.
The 12-month non-solicitation covers all executives, directors, and officers — regardless of whether they had access to confidential information. If the counterparty has 200 employees, you're restricted from hiring any of their leadership for a full year.
“During the 12 month period from the date hereof, the Parties, their affiliates and their Representatives shall not, directly or indirectly, either on their own account or otherwise on behalf of any other person, firm or corporation, solicit or attempt to solicit away from the other party any of its executives, directors, or officers.”
“For 6 months after termination of discussions, neither party shall directly solicit employees of the other party who had access to Confidential Information during the evaluation period.”
6-month restriction limited to employees with direct access to confidential information. General job postings are typically excluded.
You cannot recruit any executive from a company with 200+ employees for 12 months. Even if they apply to your job posting, you may be in breach.

Who it's for
Built for people who sign contracts, not write them
Startup Founders
Reviewing vendor contracts, investor side letters, and partnership NDAs without a $50K legal budget.
“Caught a clause giving our SaaS vendor ownership of all integrations we built — $200K in IP at risk. Used ClauseGuard's firm-tone redline to negotiate removal in 48 hours. Total cost: $5.”
Freelancers & Consultants
Signing client agreements with hidden non-competes, IP assignments, and payment terms that kill cash flow.
“Found a 24-month worldwide non-compete buried in a $45K consulting agreement on page 6. My lawyer confirmed it was unenforceable — I'd never have spotted it. Negotiated removal using the balanced redline.”
Procurement Teams
Reviewing 30+ vendor contracts per quarter with a 2-person legal team and a 3-week backlog.
“Batch-uploaded 14 vendor renewals in one session. ClauseGuard flagged 3 with auto-renewal traps totaling $340K in exposure. The DOCX redline export cut our response time from 5 days to 2 hours.”
Small Law Firms
Spending billable hours on first-pass reviews when you should be doing strategy and negotiation.
“ClauseGuard handles first-pass review on every client contract that comes in. Catches severity issues, missing clauses, and drafting errors before I even open the document. Freed up 12 billable hours per week.”

What is AI contract review?
AI contract review uses artificial intelligence to analyze legal agreements, identifying risks, extracting key terms, and suggesting improvements — in seconds instead of hours. Traditional contract review by a lawyer costs $200–$500 per hour and can take days or weeks. AI-powered tools like ClauseGuard deliver a structured risk analysis in under 90 seconds for NDAs, MSAs, SaaS agreements, employment contracts, vendor agreements, commercial leases, and more.
Who needs AI contract review?
Freelancers reviewing client service agreements. Startup founders evaluating vendor contracts and investor side letters. Small law firms triaging high volumes of NDAs and MSAs. Procurement managers comparing competing vendor proposals. Operations teams tracking renewal deadlines across dozens of active contracts. Anyone who signs contracts regularly but doesn't have a full-time legal team or a $50,000 annual legal budget.
How does ClauseGuard work?
Upload a PDF or Word document. ClauseGuard's AI engine classifies the contract, segments every clause, runs a quick severity triage, then deep-analyzes risky clauses with expert-level reasoning. Output includes a 0–100 risk score, clause-by-clause findings, replacement language in three negotiation tones, missing clause detection, and downloadable DOCX with tracked changes.
What makes ClauseGuard different from ChatGPT?
General AI requires you to know which questions to ask. ClauseGuard automatically checks 50+ clause types, compares each to market standards, detects missing provisions, catches drafting errors like duplicate section numbers and blank fields, and generates specific counter-language in three negotiation tones. The output is structured and consistent. Documents are encrypted and never stored.
How much does AI contract review cost?
ClauseGuard offers a free first analysis. Pay-per-use is $5 per contract. Pro is $99/month for unlimited reviews with all features. Business is $199/month with team access, batch upload, API, and custom playbooks. Compare that to a $200–$500/hour attorney — ClauseGuard pays for itself with a single contract review.
