About ClauseGuard
Contract review SaaS that flags risky clauses and missing protections.
Startup description ClauseGuard is a contract review web app for agencies, freelancers and small businesses. Upload a PDF, Word file or scanned document and 34 screening rules flag risky wording such as unlimited liability, one-sided indemnities and 90-day payment terms, each explained in plain English. A standard-protection check then lists clauses the agreement appears to be missing, such as a liability cap, force majeure or data protection, with starting language to copy. Reviewers propose replacement wording, compare original and redlined text, record a decision on every finding, and export a negotiation email, a printable review brief, a clean Word file or Word native tracked changes. I built it in October 2026 to explore how far a polished, well-tested contract tool could go as a product. Live demo (guest mode, use the sample contracts): https://clauseguard-phi.vercel.app/ - a 2.5-minute walkthrough video recorded on the live demo is available. Key highlights Annual revenue: $0 (pre-revenue, no customers or users yet) Annual profit: $0 (runs on free hosting tiers) Churn, LTV, CAC: not applicable yet Product: version 1.7.0, live and working, 190 automated tests passing, 0 known dependency vulnerabilities Monetisation built in: Stripe subscriptions with 4 plans, customer portal and server-enforced monthly limits Team Solo founder. I designed and directed the product and built it with AI-assisted development, reviewing and testing every release. The buyer receives detailed product, technical and operations documentation so no handover support is needed. Tech stack Front end: React 18, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Vite Back end: Node.js, Express API Database: PostgreSQL in production, SQLite for local use, with migrations and encrypted backups Payments: Stripe (checkout, portal, webhooks) Accounts: email verification, password reset, session management AI (optional): second-opinion reviews via Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini or Ollama Documents: browser OCR for scanned PDFs and images, Word track-changes export Hosting: Vercel + Neon PostgreSQL (Docker deployment also included) Marketing and growth No marketing has been done yet. The product is ready to launch: a buyer could target freelancers and agencies at $19-49/month, sell a white-label version to law firms or accountants, or add team seats and more agreement types. Revenue and profit Pre-revenue. Stripe billing is fully built but has not yet been tested with a live Stripe account; the buyer connects their own Stripe, email and AI accounts. Why I'm selling I'm not technical enough to run and grow a SaaS business myself, so I'd like it to go to someone who can launch it. What's included GitHub repository transfer (private repo, full history) Walkthrough video, captions and transcript Sold as-is with no post-sale support; the demo stays online for 14 days after the sale Not included: domain, hosting accounts, trademark or user data Screening is pattern-based and not legal advice; rules have not been reviewed by a lawyer
