Contract Risk Analyzer
For law firms that want to scale contract review without adding headcount
We build Contract Risk Analyzer platforms you own and resell to clients.
You're not just selling legal review — you're selling technology.
Your clients are asking for more than hourly contract review
General counsel at mid-market and enterprise companies are drowning in contracts. They need:
- •Faster turnaround (24-48 hours, not 2 weeks)
- •Consistent risk scoring across hundreds of agreements
- •Proactive flags on problematic clauses before they're signed
The Challenge
You can't hire fast enough to meet demand
The Cost
Junior associates doing initial review is expensive ($250-400/hour)
The Expectation
Clients increasingly expect "tech-enabled" solutions, not just legal advice
A Contract Risk Analyzer platform you own and resell
Apparatus builds a white-label Contract Risk Analyzer platform tailored to your practice areas (commercial, employment, vendor agreements, etc.).
What it does:
Automated risk scoring
Every contract gets a 0-100 risk score based on your firm's risk framework
Clause extraction
Identifies and flags problematic clauses (liability caps, indemnification, IP rights, etc.)
Redline generation
Suggests specific edits based on your firm's playbook
Comparison analysis
Side-by-side comparison of contract versions or against standard forms
How you use it:
Client uploads contract
to your branded platform (e.g., platform.yourfirm.com)
Platform analyzes
in minutes, flags high-risk areas, suggests edits
Your attorney reviews
platform output and provides strategic guidance (30 min instead of 5 hours)
Client gets better, faster service
at a premium price point
Result: You're not competing on rates. You're the only firm with proprietary contract intelligence.
How It Changes Your Business
Before Apparatus
Revenue Model:
$400/hour × 12 hours per contract = $4,800 per review
Scale Constraint:
1 partner + 2 associates = 40 contracts/month max (limited by associate capacity)
Competitive Position:
"We're experienced commercial attorneys with deep industry knowledge"
After Apparatus
Revenue Model:
$2,500 platform analysis + 2 hours attorney review ($800) = $3,300 per contract
OR $75k/year unlimited platform access + attorney review as needed
Scale Advantage:
1 partner + platform = 150+ contracts/month (platform does initial analysis, partner focuses on high-value guidance)
Competitive Position:
"We're the only firm with proprietary contract risk technology that delivers results in 24 hours"
Mid-Market Corporate Law Firm (45 attorneys)
Challenge
Losing RFPs to larger firms with "technology-enabled contract review." Associates spending 70% of time on low-value initial review work.
Solution
We built a Contract Risk Analyzer trained on the firm's 10 years of contract review work. Branded as "[Firm Name] Contract Intelligence."
