Is this a substitute for a real lawyer?

No — it's a first-pass triage tool that identifies clauses worth human legal review. High-risk contracts should still go to a lawyer; this workflow tells you which ones those are and saves lawyer time by pre-identifying the issues.

What contract types does it handle?

NDAs, SaaS subscription agreements, vendor contracts, employment agreements, consulting agreements, and lease agreements. Highly specialized contracts (M&A, securities) require additional prompt tuning.

How is the document kept confidential?

The contract is processed in your own n8n instance with your own OpenAI API key. The document is not stored by the workflow beyond the analysis session. Google Drive permissions control who can upload contracts.

Overview

Legal review of contracts is expensive and slow — lawyers charge $300–$600/hour and turnaround takes days. This workflow democratizes contract review: upload a PDF or Word contract to a secure Google Drive folder, and the workflow extracts the full text, sends it to GPT-4o with a specialized legal analysis prompt, and returns a structured report covering: risk rating (High/Medium/Low), red-flag clauses (auto-renewal, uncapped liability, non-compete, IP assignment, unilateral termination), missing standard protections, party-biased language, and suggested counter-language for each risky clause. The report is delivered as a formatted Google Doc and Slack notification within 2 minutes. Designed for businesses reviewing vendor contracts, SaaS agreements, NDAs, and employment contracts without wanting to spend $2,000 in legal fees on every document.
