What contract review software actually does

It reads every clause of a construction contract and flags the ones that shift risk onto you, each with a plain-English explanation of why it matters and what to ask for instead. A good review answers three questions before you sign: what will hurt cash flow, what kills claims you'd otherwise have, and what is unusually one-sided. See what a subcontract review should check clause by clause.

Built for the subbie, not the legal department

Most contract-AI platforms sell to general contractors and in-house legal teams: annual licences, clause libraries, playbook workflows, and a sales demo before you see anything. If you review a handful of contracts a year, none of that fits. Contract review for subcontractors is a different job — one contract, one price, plain English.

Pay per contract, not per year

US$19 flat per contract, whatever the page count. The AI reads the contract and shows what it found — how many issues, how severe, on which pages — before you pay anything. When a contract is worth serious money, take the marked-up review to a lawyer: here's how AI review and a construction lawyer fit together.

Common questions

Short answers for contractors

What is construction contract review software?

Software that reads a construction contract and identifies the clauses that create risk for the party signing it — payment terms, liquidated damages, time bars, retention, indemnities, termination rights — and explains each issue in plain language with a suggested change. AI-based tools like ContractorCounter Review do this in minutes; the review is a first pass that tells you what to question or negotiate, not a substitute for legal advice on a high-stakes contract.

Do subcontractors really need contract review software?

If you sign subcontracts written by the other side, yes — that's exactly when one-sided terms appear. Subcontracts routinely carry pay-when-paid clauses, uncapped liquidated damages, short claim time bars, and indemnities that your insurer won't cover. A US$19 first-pass review costs less than the first six minutes of a lawyer's time and tells you whether this contract needs the lawyer at all.

How much does an AI construction contract review cost?

ContractorCounter Review costs a flat US$19 per contract, whatever the page count — no subscription, no account, no demo call. The AI reads the contract and shows you what it found (how many issues, how severe, on which pages) before you pay anything; the $19 unlocks the full marked-up review with every clause highlighted and a plain-English concern and negotiation ask for each.

Is my contract kept private?

The contract PDF never leaves your browser — only its extracted text is processed to produce the review, and it is not used to train AI models. Findings are stored temporarily to deliver your purchase (7 days unpurchased, 30 days after unlock) and then deleted automatically.

Is this legal advice?

No. ContractorCounter Review is an AI-powered first-pass review that flags risky, one-sided, and ambiguous clauses so you know exactly what to question. It is not a law firm and its output is not legal advice — for contracts worth serious money, take the marked-up review to a construction lawyer and spend their billable hours on judgment instead of reading.
