Check a draft agreement against the promised work, timing, price, reviews, client duties, and handoff terms.

We'll use them to write your prompt.

Make Your Play

Give us the situation. We’ll build the prompt.

Catch missing, vague, or conflicting terms before they lead to extra work, payment disputes, or project delays.

Your answers save as you type.

What you'll do

This is the plan inside your prompt. Add your details first. Then follow these steps with ChatGPT or Claude.

01 Set the source of truth Collect the agreement and the written records that show what both sides discussed or approved.
02 Check the six deal areas Compare deliverables, schedule, payment, reviews, client duties, and final handoff line by line.
03 Prepare the correction list Turn the findings into a short list of changes and questions to settle before signing or continuing work.

Use this when

You're reviewing an agreement before signing, confirming terms before starting, or checking whether a revised agreement still matches the deal.

  • Draft agreement
  • Promised project details

Fill these in the prompt workspace.

You'll get

  • All six deal areas checked
  • Each mismatch tied to an agreement section or marked missing
  • Questions and proposed wording prepared for every item needing attention
