The Problem

The Problem: Silent, Costly Changes in Your Platform Agreement

Crowdfunding platforms update their creator agreements regularly. These changes are often buried in dense legal text, but their impact on your revenue, intellectual property, and project control is massive.

  • Hidden fee structures: New 'processing' or 'service' charges that eat into your raised funds.
  • IP ownership shifts: Clauses that grant the platform broader rights to your project's content and inventions.
  • Loss of control: New terms that let the platform reject projects, withhold funds, or change rules retroactively.
  • Increased liability: New indemnification clauses that expose you to unforeseen legal risks.
  • Onerous dispute resolution: Forced arbitration or venue changes that make fighting the platform impossible.

Trusted by Crowdfunding Creators

"Indiegogo updated their TOS and tried to slip in a clause claiming 'irrevocable, perpetual' rights to my project's characters. Legal Shell AI highlighted it in red on the comparison report. I got it removed before launching."

Maya Chen · Tabletop Game Creator, $450k Raised

"I thought the new Kickstarter terms were just boilerplate. The app showed me they quietly changed the fee structure for add-ons. That 5% difference would have cost me $12,000 on my last campaign."

David Rossi · Tech Gadget Creator

"As a filmmaker, my IP is everything. Comparing the old and new Vimeo Create agreements showed a dangerous expansion of their license. We renegotiated based on the AI's findings."

Crowdfunding Agreement Comparison FAQs

Can I compare agreements from different platforms?
Our primary strength is comparing your *old* vs. *new* terms from the *same* platform (e.g., Kickstarter's 2023 vs. 2024 creator agreement). This is where the most dangerous, silent changes happen. However, you can also upload two different platform agreements for a high-level comparison of their standard terms.
What specific changes does the AI look for?
The AI is trained to flag changes in key risk areas: fee schedules, intellectual property ownership, project approval/disapproval rights, fund disbursement timelines, indemnification clauses, dispute resolution (arbitration), and termination conditions.
Is my project data secure when I upload contracts?
Absolutely. All document uploads are encrypted and processed in a secure, isolated environment. We do not use your data to train our public models. Your project details and contract text are never stored or shared.
How long does the comparison take?
For standard creator agreements (10-30 pages), the side-by-side analysis and risk summary is generated in under 60 seconds.
What if I don't have my old agreement?
You can often find previous versions in your email archives (search for 'creator agreement' or 'terms of use' from the platform). If you can't find it, we can still analyze the new document alone for standard risk clauses, but a comparison requires both versions.
