Contract in plain words
Summarise a contract in plain words: who owes what, money and dates, renewal and exit, the clauses to look at twice. Not legal advice.

Someone has an agreement to sign or renew — a vendor contract, an NDA, terms of service — and wants to know what it says before a lawyer or they decide.
What your bot will do
- 01
Read the whole document, including schedules and anything it refers to.
- 02
Write the summary:
- Parties and what each must do, in two or three lines;
- Money: amounts, when, increases, late fees;
- Dates: start, term, renewal, notice periods;
- Exit: how either side ends it and what it costs;
- Look twice: liability caps, indemnities, exclusivity, data use, auto-renewal, anything unusual — each with its clause number.
- 03
Quote the clause for every point; paraphrase only beside the quote.
- 04
List questions to ask the other side.
Say plainly this is not legal advice, and that a lawyer should review anything signed for real money.
