Sound familiar?
Cloud AI Kills Privilege
US v. Heppner (Feb 2026) ruled that sending contracts to cloud AI waives attorney-client privilege. Every cloud-based contract review tool is now a liability.
Enterprise Tools, Solo Budgets
Spellbook costs $179/user/month. LawGeex and Kira require enterprise contracts. 560,000 solo and small firm attorneys are priced out of AI contract review.
Documentation Burden
Solo attorneys spend 2-3 hours per contract on manual review. Missing a non-compete overreach or buried indemnification clause can cost a client thousands.
Everything you need

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from ChatGPT or Claude for contract review?
ChatGPT and Claude are cloud services. When you paste a contract into them, that text leaves your device and travels to external servers. After US v. Heppner (Feb 2026), courts have ruled this can waive attorney-client privilege. CounselVault runs entirely on your iPhone with zero network calls.
Is the analysis actually useful without a large language model?
Yes. CounselVault uses 63 carefully researched red flag patterns that catch the issues attorneys care about most: non-compete overreach, unlimited liability, broad indemnification, IP assignment traps, and more. Each finding includes a plain-language explanation and negotiation suggestions. It is pattern matching, not generative AI, and that is a feature, not a limitation.
What types of contracts can it analyze?
NDAs, MSAs, employment agreements, lease agreements, service agreements, partnership agreements, licensing agreements, settlement agreements, and more. The analysis works on any English-language contract text.
How does the encryption work?
Every imported contract is encrypted with a unique AES-256-GCM key generated via CryptoKit. The key is stored in your device Keychain with kSecAttrAccessibleWhenUnlockedThisDeviceOnly protection. The plaintext is cleared from storage after encryption. File protection is set to NSFileProtectionComplete.
Can I export my analysis?
Yes. Generate professional PDF reports with clause-by-clause analysis, risk grades, red flags, and negotiation suggestions. Reports include an Attorney Work Product notice. Audit trails export as CSV for compliance records.
