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:

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?
This is interesting.
One thing I’m curious about—
Who is the best user for this right now?
I can see this being useful for a lot of people, but usually there’s one group that gets the most immediate value.
Are you seeing it more with real estate, legal, or small business contracts so far?
One thing that stood out reading this is how much more valuable the conversations were than the launch itself.
It feels like Product Hunt works best not as a traffic spike, but as a forcing function to talk to a lot of potential users quickly.
I’m curious — did you find that the biggest changes came from patterns across many founders, or from a few strong opinions that made you rethink things entirely?
I’m preparing for a launch myself and trying to think of it less as “launch day” and more as “accelerated learning day.”
That’s a great way to think about it - honestly, most of the big changes came from patterns across many founders.
Different people, but the same underlying concern kept coming up, which made it hard to ignore.
“Accelerated learning day” is a great way to frame it - that’s exactly how it felt.
Happy to answer any questions or hear your feedback 🙌
Curious how you usually review contracts today?
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.
Love that - that’s exactly what I’m trying to build
Curious what else it flags for you as you go through more contracts
Stuff like termination clauses, hidden fees, and liability risks - the things you don’t notice until it’s too late.
That makes a lot of sense - those are exactly the areas where things get expensive fast.
Really appreciate you sharing that
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.
Still early - just focused on making it useful and improving it step by step.
What are you building?
which LLM model does the project use?
Still iterating on the approach - focusing on making the results reliable in real-world contracts.
Best of luck
Thanks, really appreciate it
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!
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?
Mostly client agreements and vendor contracts for now.
Those tend to have the most hidden gotchas.
