This page answers the questions a sensible freelancer asks before trusting an AI contract review tool: what it does, what it does not do, when to use it, when to escalate to a lawyer, and how pricing likely works.
Back to homepage See demo Sample report Privacy & data handlingNo. ContractGhost is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. It is a pre-sign risk checker built to help freelancers spot obvious contract problems early, understand what to negotiate, and decide when a contract deserves proper legal review.
Freelancers, consultants, solo operators, and small creative or technical studios reviewing client agreements, SOWs, retainers, and project contracts before signing.
You can, but generic AI tools do not reliably prioritise freelancer-specific risk. ContractGhost is designed to rank the clauses most likely to hurt an independent operator first, then explain the practical risk and give you negotiation-ready language.
Current test pricing is roughly $19/month starter and $29/month pro, with pay-per-review as a fallback if subscription resistance is high. The real goal right now is validation: what freelancers will actually pay for a fast pre-sign risk review.
Privacy expectations should be explicit. Before live rollout, ContractGhost should clearly state what is stored, for how long, and whether files are retained or discarded after analysis. If a contract is especially sensitive, do not upload it until those terms are clear.
