I got burned by a contract I didn't read. So I built an AI to read them for me.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Ahmad, from Palestine. A few years ago, I signed a freelance contract with a non-compete clause buried deep in the fine print. I didn't catch it. It cost me a major client and months of frustration.
That wasn't the first time. Rental agreements with hidden auto-renewal traps. Insurance policies written in what might as well be ancient Latin. Employment contracts with sketchy IP clauses.
Every time I thought: I should have a lawyer look at this." But at $300+/hour? For a freelancer? Not realistic.
So I spent the last few months building what I wish existed:
Legalese AI — an AI tool that reads your legal documents and tells you:
→ What you're actually agreeing to (in plain English)
→ Which clauses are risky (with color-coded warnings)
→ What to negotiate before signing
It's not about replacing lawyers. It's about giving the 107M freelancers and small business owners a fighting chance before they sign something they'll regret.
We're launching on Product Hunt on January 13th — I'd love for you to check it out.
But first, I'm curious:
What's the worst "I should've read that" moment you've had with a contract?
Looking forward to being part of this community!
