About ClearTerms

Most people sign contracts they haven't fully read. A 40-page vendor agreement takes an hour to get through and legal training to interpret, and a lawyer's first-pass review costs between $250 and $1,500. So the document gets skimmed, and the auto-renewal clause or the uncapped indemnity gets discovered later. ClearTerms is built for that moment. Upload a contract, NDA, lease, employment agreement, terms of service, or privacy policy, and you get back a structured plain-English breakdown written at an 8th-grade reading level. Most documents finish in under two minutes. Every analysis includes: - A short summary of what the document is and why it matters - Risks rated high, medium, or low, each with the actual exposure spelled out - A favor scale from -100 to +100 showing which party the agreement benefits, plus the clauses driving that score - Every fee, payment, penalty, deadline, and renewal window, with who owes what to whom - The parties and their roles - Questions worth asking a lawyer, grouped by which side should be asking them When the analysis is done, you can ask follow-up questions about the document. Answers come from the document's own text, not from general knowledge about contracts. ClearTerms accepts PDF, Word, plain text, HTML, and RTF files up to 50MB. The free plan covers 5 documents a month and needs no credit card. Starter is $49/month for 20 documents, Business is $ 199/month for 250. Every plan includes every feature; the only difference is volume. There is also a free clause explainer at clearterms.co/tools/clause-explainer. Paste a single clause, get an explanation of what it does and who it favors. No account, and nothing is stored. Documents are encrypted at rest and in transit, stored in private buckets with no public URLs, and never used to train any AI model. You can delete any document from your account at any time. ClearTerms is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. It is built to help you understand what you are about to sign, so that when you do talk to a lawyer, you arrive with specific questions instead of a stack of paper.
