Spot the risky clauses in a sponsorship contract

The problem

Usage rights, exclusivity and 60-day payment terms can quietly cost you far more than the fee. A plain-English summary shows what to question. AI is not a lawyer.

What AI does

AI explains a sponsorship contract in everyday language and lists the clauses you may want to question. It is not a lawyer, and for bigger deals a lawyer or talent manager should read the contract.

Time

Time: About 15 minutesTools: Claude, ChatGPT

The steps, in short

  1. See if the contract is marked confidential, and remove names and fees if needed.
  2. Have AI summarise it and list questions to raise.
  3. Use the questions in your negotiation.
  4. For bigger deals, have a lawyer or talent manager review it.

A short sample prompt
