Clause

Clause is an AI-powered contract scanner designed specifically for freelance developers who sign contracts without legal representation. Users can paste any contract text into the platform, and Clause's AI reviews every line to identify dangerous clauses including IP ownership grabs, perpetual non-competes, unlimited liability clauses, hidden payment traps, one-sided termination terms, and moral rights waivers. The tool flags each risky clause, explains it in plain English, and provides a rewritten version that's fairer to the freelancer.

The product operates on a three-step workflow: users paste their contract (no signup required), Clause scans and analyzes the text using AI, and results are returned with clear explanations and suggested rewrites. The tool categorizes risks into six dangerous clause types with severity levels, helping developers understand exactly what they're signing. Clause was created after a founder's experience with a hidden clause that would have transferred all code ownership to a client, including pre-existing work.

Clause offers free contract scanning with no signup required to get started, making it accessible for any freelancer concerned about contract risks.
