Founder stories

What founders actually
say after using it

Not star ratings. Real outcomes from the contracts they reviewed.

Saved $8,200 in legal fees

"Meridian flagged a liability cap that would have left us exposed for over $200K. Our lawyer quoted $1,400 to review the same document. We caught it in under two minutes."

"We used to spend half a day reading every vendor agreement before signing. Now Meridian does the first pass instantly — I only read the flagged sections and we make faster decisions."

Marcus Adesanya
CEO, Wavefront · Series A
Caught retroactive IP grab

"The IP scanner caught an assignment clause that would have transferred our background IP to a contractor retroactively — covering work we'd done months before the engagement even began."

Meridian's model is trained on 2M+ contracts. Every clause is scored against 40+ risk categories — from liability traps to IP overreach.

01

Liability cap analysis

Compares your cap against deal size and jurisdiction medians. Flags anything below the industry standard for your contract type.

02

IP scope detection

Identifies when assignment language reaches beyond the project scope — including retroactive provisions and "work for hire" overreach.

03

Termination asymmetry

Surfaces imbalanced notice periods, unilateral termination rights, and clawback provisions that favour the counterparty.

04

Auto-renewal exposure

Detects short-window auto-renewal clauses before they lock you into another year of a contract you intended to exit.
