Finally understand
what you're signing.
Paste or upload any contract and get it back in plain English in 30 seconds — every clause read, the risky ones flagged, and a clear grade so you know exactly where you stand.
RateMyContract isn't a law firm and doesn't give legal advice, so there's no attorney–client relationship here. Think of it as a sharp second read that helps you ask better questions before you sign — not a substitute for a lawyer when the stakes are high. 18+ only.
Understand any contract in plain English
Paste it. Read it. Get it. — three steps, under thirty seconds. Your document is read in memory and never stored after your report is generated — no account needed for your first read.
Drop it in
Paste the text or upload a PDF, DOCX or TXT. Names, addresses and personal details are auto-redacted before anything is read.
We read every line
Each clause is checked against what's normal for that kind of contract. The ones that lean against you get flagged by severity — not by fear.
Understand & act
Get a plain-English summary, a clear grade, and a short list of what's worth asking about before you sign — named section by section.
Check a contract before you sign it
Hand over the contract. Get the read. A little context sharpens the read — but the contract's the only thing we actually need.
Redaction catches most personal details, but not always every one — don't upload anything you wouldn't be comfortable sharing.

Questions people ask before they sign
The short, honest answers — on what this is, what happens to your document, and what it can read.
Is RateMyContract legal advice?
No. RateMyContract isn't a law firm and doesn't give legal advice, so there's no attorney–client relationship. It's a careful second read that helps you understand the fine print and ask better questions before you sign — not a substitute for a lawyer when the stakes are high.
Is my contract stored?
No. Your document is read in memory and never stored after your report is generated. Personal details like names, addresses and account numbers are auto-redacted before anything is analysed, and your contract is never used to train an AI model.
What contracts can I check?
Leases, job offers, NDAs, freelance and vendor agreements, subscriptions and more — any everyday contract you want to understand in plain English before you sign it.
