Sample results

What your analysis looks like

Every flagged clause is categorized by risk level, explained in plain English, and paired with actionable negotiation guidance. Common red flags include unlimited liability, overbroad IP assignment, vague payment approval terms, one-sided termination rights, and restrictive exclusivity clauses. The goal is to help you understand exactly what needs attention before you sign.

Unlimited liability Critical

The contract removes all liability caps. You bear full financial risk regardless of contract value.

Request a liability cap equal to the total contract value or fees paid.

Overbroad IP assignment High

All intellectual property, including pre-existing work, transfers permanently and irrevocably.

Limit transfer to work created specifically for this project. Retain portfolio rights.

No. Flag Red is automated software that helps identify common contract risks. It is not legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship. For complex contracts, high-stakes agreements, or jurisdiction-specific questions, consult a qualified attorney.

Review the explanation and negotiation guidance provided for each flagged clause. For low and medium severity issues, you may be able to negotiate changes directly. For critical-severity flags or clauses involving significant financial exposure, consider consulting a lawyer before signing.

If a contract contains critical-severity issues, involves significant financial exposure, or covers jurisdiction-specific regulatory matters, consult a qualified attorney. Flag Red gives you a strong first read so you can focus your lawyer's time on the issues that matter most.

Free scan files are automatically deleted after processing. Paid accounts can store contracts, but you control your data and can delete it anytime. Your documents are encrypted during transfer and never sold or shared beyond what is needed for analysis. Read more about our security practices.

Flag Red uses advanced language models trained to detect patterns and risky clauses with high precision. While no automated tool replaces a qualified attorney, it catches issues most people miss when reading contracts on their own.
