I relaunched my AI contract tool on Product Hunt today - here's what 400+ founders taught me

A few weeks ago I posted here for the first time.

I had a half-finished tool, no users, and no idea if anyone needed it.

That post got 400+ comments.

I read every single one.


Here's something I didn't expect:

The comments didn't just give feedback.

They gave me the product.

One insight changed everything:

Founders don't think in terms of "contract analysis."

They ask one question:

"Is there anything in this contract that could cost me money later?"

That became the entire product.


So I rebuilt VIDI around that.

What's new in VIDI 2.0:

  • Contract Health Score (0–100)
  • Risk summary - High / Medium / Low / Missing
  • Exact clause highlighted from your PDF
  • Risk categories (auto-renewal, liability, payment, IP, etc.)
  • Missing clause detection
  • AI-improved contract version
  • Full structured report (exportable as PDF)
  • Dashboard with full contract history
  • Secure accounts + file storage

Today I launched VIDI 2.0 on Product Hunt:

https://www.producthunt.com/products/vidi-ai-contract-review?launch=vidi-2-0-ai-contract-review

Current numbers:

  • 57 contracts analyzed
  • 19 users
  • Contracts from UK, India, Australia, Shanghai

Still early - but it finally feels like a real product.

Curious:

Have you ever signed a contract that looked fine…
but later realized it had a clause that cost you money?

    Happy to answer any questions or hear your feedback 🙌

    Curious how you usually review contracts today?

    1. 1

      Before VIDI, I mostly skimmed contracts myself or relied on basic templates - definitely risky. Using VIDI 2.0 caught clauses I would have missed and gave me real peace of mind. Honestly, it’s become my go-to for any new contract now.

      1. 1

        Love that - that’s exactly what I’m trying to build

        Curious what else it flags for you as you go through more contracts

        1. 1

          Stuff like termination clauses, hidden fees, and liability risks - the things you don’t notice until it’s too late.

          1. 1

            That makes a lot of sense - those are exactly the areas where things get expensive fast.

            Really appreciate you sharing that

  2. 1

    What API are you using? Are your costs high? curious because I'm working on a similar product, except it is something that would be creating the contract for SOW for outsourcing. Simple thing, right now just going for 100 users.

    1. 1

      Still early - just focused on making it useful and improving it step by step.

      What are you building?

  3. 1

    which LLM model does the project use?

    1. 1

      Still iterating on the approach - focusing on making the results reliable in real-world contracts.

    1. 1

      Thanks, really appreciate it

  4. 1

    Hey Meirambek, congrats on the VIDI launch! 🎉

    I tried it recently and it literally saved me ~$4,000 by catching a risky clause I almost missed. Really love how you focused on what actually costs founders money. Excited to see where you take this next!

    1. 1

      That’s exactly the kind of use case I’m aiming for - catching things before they turn into real costs.

      Out of curiosity, what kind of contracts are you reviewing most often?

      1. 1

        Mostly client agreements and vendor contracts for now.
        Those tend to have the most hidden gotchas.
