I Built an AI Contract Scanner—Because Vendors Keep Trying to Screw Me
After 20+ years and 30,000+ apartment units, here’s what I’ve learned:
The fine print is where pain lives.
– Auto-renewals buried on page 17
– Liability shifted to you
– Payment terms that bleed cash flow
– Termination rights that vanish when you need them most
Most contract summaries are built by non-lawyers. They skim instead of scrutinize. That’s how financial landmines get signed—quietly tucked inside PDFs.
My AI prompt hunts these landmines.
– Flags auto-renewal traps
– Exposes liability bombs
– Highlights cash-drain clauses
– Surface termination and insurance red flags
Real example: It found a 25-year auto-renewal hidden in an elevator contract. I thought it was hallucinating. I checked. It was real.
Important note: No system is perfect. You still need to confirm the work, just like with regular employees.
