Pick a clause. Watch Legalysis read it.

Choose a common contract clause and see how Legalysis flags the risk, explains it in plain English, and lists what to renegotiate. A preview of how it reads.

Clause excerpt · § 7.2 · Term & Renewal

This Agreement renews automatically for successive twelve (12) month terms unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal no less than ninety (90) days before the end of the then-current term.

Medium risk
In plain English
You are locked into another full year unless you cancel at least 90 days ahead — an unusually long window that is easy to miss.
Flagged for review
  • Notice window of 90 days is longer than market standard (30 days).
  • No price-increase cap on renewal.
  • Renewal term length itself is reasonable.
Clause excerpt · § 11.1 · Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Provider’s total liability exceed the fees paid by Client in the one (1) month immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

High risk
In plain English
If something goes badly wrong, your maximum recovery is a single month of fees — far below the potential exposure for most engagements.
Flagged for review
  • Liability cap of one month is very low and one-sided.
  • No carve-out for data breach, IP infringement or gross negligence.
  • Mutual indemnification clause is present elsewhere.
Clause excerpt · § 9.3 · Indemnification

Each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other from third-party claims arising out of its own breach of this Agreement, subject to prompt written notice and reasonable cooperation.

Low risk
In plain English
Indemnities run both ways and are tied to actual breach — a balanced, fairly standard provision with the usual notice conditions.
Flagged for review
  • “Reasonable cooperation” is undefined — clarify scope.
  • Confirm whether defence costs are included.
  • Mutual and breach-based — well balanced.
Clause excerpt · § 14.4 · Restrictive Covenant

For a period of twenty-four (24) months following termination, Client shall not engage any competitor of Provider within the territory, nor solicit any Provider personnel.

High risk
In plain English
A broad 24-month restriction across the whole territory — potentially unenforceable in some jurisdictions and a meaningful limit on your future options.
Flagged for review
  • Duration (24 months) and scope are broad; may be unenforceable.
  • No carve-out for pre-existing relationships.
  • Non-solicit portion is narrower and more defensible.
What it does

Everything a careful read would catch — in minutes, not nights.

Not a keyword scan. A clause-by-clause reading that finds the nuance, the carve-outs and the liabilities a search bar walks right past.

§ 01

Clause-by-clause analysis

Legalysis reads the whole document the way a careful lawyer does — every clause, every cross-reference — not just the words you thought to search for.

§ 02

Risk flags, graded

Each issue is graded low, medium or high, with the buried liabilities and one-sided terms surfaced and explained, not just highlighted.

§ 03

One-page summary

A long contract becomes a single clear page — the obligations, the dates, the risks — without losing what actually matters.

§ 04

Plain-English explanations

Every flagged clause is explained in language a non-lawyer can act on, so the whole team understands what they’re signing.

§ 05

Redline-ready notes

It surfaces exactly what to renegotiate, phrased for the margin — so you walk into the negotiation already prepared.

§ 06

Private by design

Your documents are never stored. Legalysis keeps only the analysis you choose to save, and nothing of the source contract.

The reading

The contract on one side, the risk on the other.

Legalysis lays the document beside its own analysis: clauses highlighted where they matter, an overall risk level, and a flagged-issues list you can work straight down. No more reading eighty pages to find the three that bite — the system reads all eighty and points at the three.

Questions of fact.

Is Legalysis a substitute for a lawyer?

No — and it does not pretend to be. Legalysis is a careful first read that surfaces risks, explains clauses and saves you hours, so a lawyer’s time goes to judgement rather than triage. For anything consequential, have a qualified professional review the result.

What kinds of documents can it analyse?

Contracts, NDAs, leases, employment agreements, terms of service, SaaS and vendor agreements — most business and personal legal documents. It reads the whole text clause by clause, not just keywords.

Do you store my documents?

No. Your source documents are never stored. Legalysis processes the text to produce the analysis and keeps only the results you choose to save — nothing of the original contract.

How accurate are the risk flags?

Legalysis grades each clause low, medium or high and explains its reasoning, so you can judge it rather than trust it blindly. It is built to catch the nuance a keyword scan misses, but it is an aid to a careful read — not a verdict.

Which languages and jurisdictions does it cover?

The interface is available in 13 languages, and Legalysis analyses documents across common-law and civil-law contexts. It flags where a clause may be jurisdiction-dependent so you know to check local law.

Read every line. Sign nothing blind.
