Why Printd Exists

The Problem

Every time you sign up for a service, download an app, or make a purchase online, you are presented with a legal document and asked to agree to it. You have no choice. You need the service. So you click I Agree.

The average Terms & Conditions document is 10,000 to 50,000 words long. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University estimated that reading every privacy policy you encounter in a year would take 76 full work days.

These documents are not designed to inform you. They are designed to protect the company. They are written by expensive lawyers whose entire job is to make sure the company wins. You get a checkbox.

The Gap

ToS;DR — Terms of Service; Didn't Read — proved that people care about this problem and will act on clear information when it's given to them. It's a genuinely important project.

But ToS;DR relies on volunteers manually reviewing documents. It can't keep up. It only covers a fraction of the services people use. It can't analyze the specific document from the specific company you're dealing with right now.

The Solution

AI makes real-time analysis of any legal document possible for the first time. Paste a URL. Upload a PDF. Drop in the text. In seconds, you get a plain English breakdown of what you are actually agreeing to.

Printd does not replace lawyers. But it gives ordinary people the same basic understanding that a lawyer would give you before you signed anything important. And Fight Back Mode goes further — if a company tries to use their terms against you, we analyze whether their claim holds up and give you the tools to push back.

The Mission

Level the playing field between corporations and ordinary people.

Rich people have lawyers. Now everyone does.

Corporate legal departments have unlimited resources. You have whatever time you can spare and a checkbox. Printd exists to close that gap.
