I launched an AI contract generator — here's what happened on Day 1
Hey IH community,
I launched ContractAI.fyi on Product Hunt yesterday and wanted to share the journey + get feedback.
What it is: An AI-powered web app that generates legal contracts from plain-language descriptions. Describe your deal in normal English, get a complete contract with proper legal clauses in under 2 minutes.
Why I built it: I'm a systems engineer from Uruguay with 20+ years in IT. Every time I needed a contract (freelance work, partnerships, NDAs), I had two bad options: pay a lawyer $1,000+ or use a generic template I didn't trust. AI changed that equation.
Tech stack:
- AI: Anthropic Claude API
- Backend: Python/FastAPI
- Frontend: React/Next.js
- Infra: AWS
Business model:
- Free: 1 contract/month, all 6 types, PDF & DOCX
- Premium: $14.99/mo (unlimited contracts, priority support)
- Early adopter lock-in: $14.99/mo forever (normally $19.99) for first 100 customers
Results after 36 hours:
- Product Hunt: 4 upvotes, 4 followers (small but growing)
- Twitter/X thread: 62 views, 9 likes, 6 retweets, 2 replies
- LinkedIn: 274 impressions, 6 reactions across 2 posts
- Reddit r/SideProject: 191 views in first 24 hours
What I'd love feedback on:
- Is the pricing right? Too high? Too low?
- What contract types matter most to indie hackers?
- Would you trust AI-generated contracts for your business?
