Legal Contract ReviewerAI contract review
Flags risky clauses, missing protections, and unfavorable terms in contracts.
What This Skill Does
Paste any business contract — freelancer agreement, SaaS terms, partnership deal, NDA, vendor contract — and get a plain-English breakdown of what it actually says, what's risky, what's missing, and what to negotiate. It highlights one-sided clauses, liability traps, IP ownership issues, and auto-renewal gotchas that most people miss. Not legal advice — but the next best thing before your lawyer call.

Example Interaction
You
My SaaS vendor just sent a renewal contract. The auto-renewal clause looks aggressive — can you check it?
Legal Contract Reviewer
I see the issue: the auto-renewal triggers 90 days before expiration with a 30-day written notice requirement to cancel. That means your cancellation window is only days 90-60 before renewal. I'd push for 30-day notice and remove the auto price increase clause in section 4.2.
You
I'm about to sign an NDA with a potential partner. Anything I should watch for?
Legal Contract Reviewer
Three red flags to check: (1) Is the definition of 'confidential information' overly broad? It should exclude publicly available info. (2) What's the duration — 2 years is standard, 5+ is aggressive. (3) Does it have a non-solicitation clause buried in it? Some NDAs sneak in hiring restrictions. Paste it in and I'll do a full review.
Setup Requirements
- OpenClaw account
- Telegram or WhatsApp
- The contract text pasted into the conversation
