What users are saying

Thousands of people use Contract Scanner to stay protected before they sign.

★★★★★

"Found an auto-renewal clause buried on page 8 that would have charged me $600/year. Saved me from a nasty surprise."

M

Marcus T.

Freelance Designer

★★★★★

"I review software contracts for clients weekly. This cuts my initial review time in half. The plain-English explanations are spot on."

S

Sarah K.

Startup Founder

★★★★★

"The employment offer I received had a non-compete clause that covered 3 years and a 500-mile radius. Contract Scanner flagged it immediately."

J

James L.

Software Engineer

★★★★★

"I'm not a lawyer and I was nervous about signing a commercial lease. This tool gave me the confidence to negotiate better terms."

L

Linda R.

Small Business Owner

★★★★★

"Flagged a mandatory arbitration clause in an app's ToS that waived my right to class-action suits. Never would have read that far myself."

D

Daniel W.

Product Manager

★★★★★

"Runs in seconds. I paste in the ToS before signing up for any service now. It's become a habit — can't imagine agreeing to contracts without it."

Frequently asked questions

Is Contract Scanner free?

Yes — you can use Contract Scanner completely free with up to 5 analyses per month (Chrome extension). No credit card required.

Does the extension read all my web traffic?

No. The extension only reads the text of the page when you explicitly click "Analyze." It does not monitor your browsing, read emails, or access any page you haven't chosen to analyze.

Is my contract data stored on your servers?

The contract text is sent to our AI backend for analysis, but it is not stored after the analysis is complete. The resulting risk report (score and clause summaries — not the original text) is stored in your history if you are signed in. See our Privacy Policy.

Is this legal advice?

No. Contract Scanner provides general information for educational purposes. It does not constitute legal advice and should not replace consultation with a qualified attorney for important legal matters.

What AI model powers the analysis?

We use DeepSeek by default — a state-of-the-art large language model. Pro users get priority access. You can also bring your own API key in Settings to use any OpenAI-compatible model.

Which browsers are supported?

The browser extension works in Google Chrome (version 116+) and other Chromium-based browsers such as Edge, Brave, and Arc. Contract Scanner is also available as a standalone desktop app (Windows/macOS/Linux) — no browser required.

Is there a desktop or mobile app?

Yes! Contract Scanner is available as a desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux (built with Electron). It shares the same AI analysis engine as the Chrome extension and supports the same Pro subscription.

Can the desktop app work without internet?

The desktop app can be configured to use your own API key (DeepSeek, OpenAI, Anthropic, or any compatible provider). In that mode, your contract text is sent directly to your chosen AI provider — no traffic goes through our servers. A self-hosted backend URL is also supported.

Does my Pro subscription cover all platforms?

Yes. A single Pro subscription unlocks unlimited analyses on both Chrome and Desktop simultaneously. Sign in with the same account and everything syncs automatically.
