Summarise a contract in plain English
Summarises key terms, obligations, dates and risks in a contract, with clause references so you can check each point.
I am the {{MY_ROLE}} in this contract. Summarise it for me in plain English.
<contract>
{{CONTRACT}}
</contract>
Include, with the clause number for every point:
1. What each party must do.
2. Money: amounts, payment terms, penalties, price changes.
3. Dates: start, length, renewal, notice periods, deadlines.
4. How either side can end it.
5. Liability, indemnity and IP terms.
6. Anything unusual, one-sided against me, or missing compared with a typical contract of this type.
7. Questions I should ask before signing.
Quote the contract wording for anything in point 6. If a clause is ambiguous, say so. This is not legal advice, and I will check key points with a lawyer.Example output
Term: 24 months, auto-renews for 12 unless cancelled 90 days before (clause 11.2). You must: pay within 30 days (4.1). Watch out: unlimited liability for data breaches (9.4).
How to use
Paste the full contract text; for very long contracts, do it section by section. Check every clause reference yourself, and use a lawyer for anything with real money or risk.
Why it works
Clause numbers and quotes keep the summary grounded and checkable, which matters because a missed or invented term can be expensive. Focusing on what is unusual saves you from rereading boilerplate.
