About What'sMyContract

We read the agreement you are about to sign and tell you, in plain English, what it actually says — before you sign it, not after something goes wrong.

What this site is

Most people sign employment agreements, freelance contracts and service terms without reading them, because the documents are long, the language is deliberately unfamiliar, and a lawyer costs more than the deal is worth. What'sMyContract exists to close that gap. Upload a contract and our analysis highlights the clauses that carry real consequences — restrictive covenants, indemnities, termination terms, intellectual-property assignment, fee and payment mechanics — and explains each one in ordinary words.

Alongside the scanner we publish two libraries, both free and open to everyone: the Clause Library, which explains the individual clauses you will meet again and again, and the Guides, which work through the situations those clauses create.

Who operates it

What'sMyContract is built and operated by Garnet Grid Consulting LLC, an independent software studio. We are not a law firm, we are not affiliated with any law firm, and we do not take referral fees from lawyers. You can reach a human at [email protected] — see the contact page for the right address for each kind of question.

How our analysis works

When you upload a document, the text is extracted in your browser and analysed by a large language model against a structured set of clause patterns. The result is a readable summary: what the clause is, what it obliges you to do, and whether its terms sit inside or outside the common range for that clause type.

It is an automated reading, and automated readings are confidently wrong sometimes. It does not know your jurisdiction's case law, your negotiating history, or the side agreements that are not in the file. Treat the output as a map of where to look and what to ask, not as a verdict. The disclaimer sets out the limits in full.

How our written guides are produced

We think you are entitled to know how the words you are reading were made. The Clause Library and the Guides are researched from primary sources — statutes, standard-form agreements and published commentary — and drafted with the assistance of large language models, and reviewed by a person before deployment for claims that are wrong, jurisdiction-specific statements presented as universal, and figures we cannot support. They are general explanatory writing about how contracts work. They are not advice about your contract, and they are not a substitute for a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction.

If you find something inaccurate, tell us and we will correct it. Corrections go to [email protected] and we would rather hear it from you than leave it standing.

How the site is funded

The clause explanations, the guides and a basic contract scan are free. The site carries third-party advertising, and a paid tier adds deeper analysis and history. Advertising never determines what we publish or what an analysis says, and no advertiser is given editorial input. See the disclaimer for our advertising disclosure.
