Who it’s for

Lawyers, paralegals, compliance teams and people dealing with contracts. Not legal advice.

Adapt it to your industry

  • Freelancer: understand a client contract before signing
  • Small business: draft a first version of a simple policy for a lawyer to review
  • Real estate: summarize a lease in plain words

  2. Open ChatGPT, Claude or Grok and paste the prompt below with the text.
  3. Ask for a plain-language summary, a list of risks and questions to ask.
  4. Check every point against the actual document; AI can miss or invent things.
  5. Have a qualified lawyer review anything important before you rely on it.
  6. Save the prompt as a checklist for the next document.
