How Printd works

Printd analyzes any legal document a company asks you to agree to: • Terms & Conditions (T&C) • Privacy Policies • Terms of Service (ToS) • End User License Agreements (EULAs) • Cookie Policies • Combined T&C + Privacy Policy documents • Any other legal agreement You can analyze them via URL (we fetch and read the page), PDF link, PDF upload, or by pasting the text directly.

Before analyzing the content, our AI identifies what type of document it's reading. This matters because different documents have different red flags. A Privacy Policy analysis focuses on data retention, deletion rights, tracking technologies, and international transfers. A Terms & Conditions analysis focuses on arbitration clauses, content ownership, auto-renewal, and cancellation policies. Printd automatically adjusts the analysis based on what it detects.

Printd uses a state-of-the-art large language model with a 1 million token context window — large enough to read most entire legal documents in a single pass. For very long documents (over 400,000 characters), we analyze the most legally significant sections first. The model returns structured JSON — not a wall of text — which we then present to you in a readable, scannable format.

The AI assesses the overall balance of the document: SAFE — The document is generally consumer-friendly. Red flags are absent or minor. CAUTION — The document has concerning clauses, or mixed signals. Read the red flags carefully. DANGER — The document contains clauses that significantly favor the company over you. Significant red flags found. The verdict is based on the combination of red flags found, the severity of each, and how the document compares to others of its type.

Legal documents are often deliberately written to confuse ordinary people. Longer sentences, obscure jargon, and convoluted structures make documents harder to read. The Plain Language Score (1–10) measures how readable the document is: • 1–3: Deliberately obfuscated. Written by lawyers for lawyers. • 4–6: Moderately confusing. Some plain English mixed with legalese. • 7–10: Reasonably clear. Written with ordinary people in mind. This score is itself a signal — a very low score often means the company doesn't want you to understand what you're agreeing to.

When a document is analyzed, the result is cached in our public database for 30 days, keyed by a hash of the document content. If you analyze the same URL or document again, you get the cached result instantly — no AI call needed, no cost, zero wait time. For Fight Back Mode, results are cached for 7 days. We never store anything about you. The cache key is a hash of the document content only — no URL tracking, no user tracking, nothing.

Printd is powerful but not perfect: • AI can misread complex legal language or miss nuance • Very long documents may be partially analyzed • Jurisdiction analysis is based on the country you select, not a full legal review • The AI cannot predict how a company actually enforces its terms • Some documents are deliberately vague — the AI may not be able to assess what a company will actually do • Results may be incomplete for combined documents (T&C + Privacy Policy together) For important decisions — employment contracts, significant purchases, legal disputes — always verify with a qualified legal professional.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing about you. • No name, email, phone number • No IP address • No location data • No device information • No cookies tracking you across sessions • No analytics tracking • No advertising tracking The only data stored is the analysis of publicly available legal documents, keyed by a hash of the document content. There is no connection between you and any analysis. Read our Privacy Policy for the full picture — it's written in plain English and is genuinely short.
