Hello Product Hunt community! πŸ‘‹ I'm Chad Sakonchick and I'm thrilled to present my first Product Huntβ€”the MVP launch of BetterLegal Assistant! A hearty thank you to our wonderful team and to you for joining us on this exciting journey. πŸš€ Today, we're unveiling a Chrome Extension that cuts through complex legal text. No more puzzling over legalese! πŸ’Ό Ever been baffled by a contract? I have personally been on the opposing side of legal documents that were designed to confuse me. I had to either sit there and walk through every word in my head over and over to piece the puzzle together, or sign it and hope for the best. πŸ–‹οΈ I have done both and neither worked out very well. After slogging through the daily grind of entrepreneurship, making the contextual switch to such dense text is extremely taxing on an already exhausted mind. So instead, let our tireless AI break it down for you in a few seconds. πŸ€– Our MVP offers: 1️⃣ Legal Simplifier: Converts legal jargon into everyday language. πŸ“œβž‘οΈπŸ”€ 2️⃣ Multilingual: Supports 50+ languages, easing legal understanding globally. πŸŒπŸ—£οΈ 3️⃣ Pirate Mode: Optional pirate lingo, get set for legal adventures, matey! β˜ οΈπŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ 4️⃣ Free Access: Yes, you read it right. Our MVP is absolutely free! 🎁 But wait! We're already working on the next steps. Here's a sneak peek at our roadmap: πŸ—ΊοΈ πŸ”œ Contract Analysis: A tool to dissect your contracts and highlight potential issues. πŸ”œ Contract Creator: A feature that helps you draft contracts, focusing on the crucial elements - Offer, Acceptance, Consideration, Mutual Consent, Legality, and Capacity. We are keen to hear from YOU! Your feedback, questions, and suggestions will be invaluable in shaping BetterLegal Assistant into the most user-friendly tool it can be. πŸ§©πŸ› οΈ Ready to make sense of legal jargon? Try BetterLegal Assistant today! As a special thank you, we're offering $50 in credits to all of today’s Hunters πŸŽπŸ’° I'll be in the comments, excited to chat about everything legal and beyond. If anyone is interested, I’m happy to share the origins of this idea back from 2016! Let's make legal language simple and fun together! 🎊 Cheers, Chad and the BetterLegal team πŸ₯³ PS - Special THANK YOU to @5harath and @michaeljnovotny for help with the launch!

Congrats on the MVP launch of BetterLegal Assistant, it's a great accomplishment! πŸŽ‰ I'm really excited about the multilingual supportβ€”it's going to make a big difference for understanding legal terms around the world. What I'm even more curious about is the Contract Analysis tool you're working on. Could you tell me more about itβ€”what kind of insights can a user get out of it? πŸ€” Super impressed with the unique and whimsical Pirate Mode, too! πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ Keep up the good work, can't wait to see what else you come up with! 🀩

@gabriel_nori Thanks so much for your support! The Contract Analysis is aimed being the real breakout hit of our launch plan. It goes through 6-steps: - Extracts elements (dates, parties, dollar amounts, etc) - Analyses the contract on the 6 requisite elements to make a contract legally binding - Checks the balance of a contract to make sure it's fair - Generates real world scenarios of how the contract can negatively affect the user if left unchanged - Provides considerations to think about if the user wants to address the scenarios - Displays options the user can take to modify the contract accordingly (if you want to fix scenario #3, copy/paste this text into this section)

Great idea, I will try to use this to actually check some terms and conditions before accepting them. Awesome that you have made it multilingual right from the start!

@m2ecommerce We all just blindly accept contracts don't we? LOL The multi-lingual support has been quite popular, any feedback helps us get better!
Chad Sakonchick

@m2ecommerce Question for you Matthias, when using multilingual support, would you prefer to get back English or the language that you're inputting?
Matthias Mayer
@csakon I don't mind getting English answers at all but from my experience with AI language models I am curious if the translation would pick up all nuances of legalese? ;)
Chad Sakonchick
Maker
@m2ecommerce It seems to do it just fine from my perspective, but I don't speak 50+ languages to check its work hahah. I think this is one of those situations where AI will surprise you.

Cool product! Congrats on the launch Chad. Can assistant help with legal questions from any country?
Chad Sakonchick
Maker
@iuliia_shnai Thanks so much! Right now it can simplify any text in any supported language. So give it a shot! The next update will include analysis of contracts, but for the US.

Upvoted, congrats on the launch! Really useful, I really hate reading the legal stuff

@nicolas_jeanne Everyone does haha! Thanks so much for the support. Any thoughts you have on this help us make the tool better!
Elissa Craig
I love the fact that BetterLegal Assistant is a Chrome extension! Very cool that it also functions in multiple languages.
Chad Sakonchick
Maker
@elissa_craig The goal was to allow you to have it readily accessible as you read a document or contract. Originally it was just a website, but it was just too much to have to hop back and forth between tabs. This is a much more elegant solution. In 6-8 weeks, we'll support full contract uploads that will generate real-world scenarios on how a contract can negatively affect you if left unchanged.

This is such a time-saver for beginner entrepreneurs like myself. From dumb incorporation questions to understanding privacy policies (we at Brick care about those to make sure our customers' data doesn't leak anywhere), this app would save me dozens of hours if I'd had it 2 years ago.
Chad Sakonchick
Maker
@nikita_kazhin That's amazing to hear Nikita! Though you needing it and it not existing yet is sad :( I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you might use this or features that you'd like to see?
Nikita Kazhin
@csakon I'm dealing with App Store review for my first app right now, this could be a perfect use case for their "say a lot of words without actually saying anything" policy documents.
Nigel Godfrey
Congratulations on the launch. Great to see such a practical use of AI.

@nigelgodfrey It is! I'm stumbling into new creative ways to provide more value. Coming next is the ability to generate real-world scenarios that can negatively affect you on a contract if left unchanged.

@artur_sekalski That's what I'm hoping for! Thanks for your support!
