How to Use AI to Review Contracts (Without Paying a Lawyer $500/Hour)

We've all been there. You're staring at a 15-page PDF. It's full of words like "indemnification," "force majeure," and "perpetuity." However, you just want to know: Is this safe to sign?

Historically, you had two bad options:

  1. Sign it blindly and hope for the best (risky).
  2. Hire a lawyer to read it for $500/hour (expensive).

Now, there is a third option. Inkless AI helps you review, summarize, and understand contracts in plain English—instantly.

🤖 What Can Inkless AI Do?

Our new AI-powered review tool acts as your reading assistant. When you upload a document to Inkless, the AI automatically analyzes the text to:

  • Summarize the Key Terms: Get a bulleted list of dates, payment amounts, and deliverables.
  • Explain Complex Clauses: Highlight a confusing paragraph and get a simple explanation.
  • Flag Unusual Terms: Quickly spot things that look out of the ordinary for a standard agreement.

It turns a 30-minute headache into a 30-second summary.

⚡ How to Review a Contract with AI

Here is how you can use the feature on Inkless today:

  1. Upload Your PDF: Drag and drop your contract into Inkless.
  2. Click "AI Review": Look for the magic wand icon in the toolbar.
  3. Get Answers: The AI will scan the document text and immediately provide you with a plain-language summary and risk analysis.

🎯 Best Use Cases

Inkless AI is versatile, but it shines brightest when you are dealing with standard business and personal agreements.

🏠 Lease Agreements

Before you sign a 12-month lease, use Inkless to check:

  • Security Deposit: Conditions for getting it back.
  • Termination: What happens if you need to break the lease early?
  • Maintenance: Are you responsible for repairs or the landlord?

💼 Freelance & Service Contracts

Make sure you get paid on time.

  • Payment Terms: Is it Net-30? Net-60? Upon completion?
  • Scope Creep: Does the contract define exactly what "finished" looks like?
  • IP Ownership: Do you keep the rights to your work, or does the client own it?

🤫 Confidentiality (NDAs)

  • Duration: Does the NDA last for 2 years or forever?
  • Scope: Defines strictly what information is confidential versus what isn't.
