Release Notes

The latest improvements, new features, and behind-the-scenes upgrades we've shipped to Contractam.

Contractam - 1.4.0: Smarter, Law-Aware Analysis Released in May 2026

Our biggest analysis upgrade yet — Contractam now reasons about your contract against the specific laws that apply to it, with sharper scoring and faster results.

  • Jurisdiction-aware checks — Contractam now assesses every clause against the actual federal and state law that applies to it, drawn from primary sources instead of generic rules.

  • New common-law checks — Contractam now catches issues that aren't written in legislation but come from case law, such as unreasonable restraints.

  • Tailored legal logic per contract type — Employment, Rental, NDA and Service agreements are each reviewed against their own rules, instead of one-size-fits-all.

Fairer, clearer scoring
  • Rebuilt fairness scoring — one-sided and stacked terms are now spotted more reliably, with clearer fairness ratings.

  • Plain-English clarity scores — readability is assessed more carefully, so the clauses we flag are the ones that genuinely confuse.

  • More accurate overall scores — a serious problem now shows up as a serious problem, instead of being diluted by the rest of the contract.

Consistency across all contract types
  • Every contract type — Employment, Rental, NDA and Service — now gets the same upgraded risk, fairness, clarity and completeness checks, whatever you upload.

Faster results
  • We moved to our latest-generation analysis and now process clauses in parallel — your contract comes back faster and more reliably.

Contractam - 1.3.0: Deeper Compliance Checking Released in April 2026

This release went deeper on compliance — adding real pay and award checking, and tightening scoring across the board.

  • Pay & award checks — contracts are now checked against real Australian Modern Award minimums, so underpayment risks get flagged.

  • Automatic award detection — when a contract doesn't say which award applies, Contractam works it out and checks against the right one.

  • Stronger legal grounding — every clause is matched to the actual law that governs it, so each verdict is traceable to a real source.

Better scoring across the board
  • Rebuilt clarity scoring — better at catching confusing or buried terms, in plain English.

  • Upgraded fairness signals — better at detecting one-sided and imbalanced clauses.

  • More consistent verdicts — every scoring layer now reasons the same way, so results are more reliable across contracts.

Faster and more reliable
  • Parallel analysis — contracts are processed significantly faster.

  • More resilient analysis — better handling of timeouts and transient errors, so analyses complete reliably.

Contractam - 1.2.0: New Contract Types & Smarter Intake Released in March 2026

We broadened what Contractam can review and made the whole analysis experience smoother.

  • Service & general contracts — added support for general and service agreements alongside Employment, Rental and NDA.

  • Upload safeguards — Contractam now detects when a file isn't a contract and tells you, instead of trying to analyse it.

  • Handles longer documents — improved support for large, multi-page PDFs end-to-end.

A smoother analysis experience
  • Live progress — watch the analysis happen in real time as your contract is reviewed.

  • Pick up where you left off — close the tab and come back; your in-progress analysis resumes automatically.

  • Refreshed billing — clearer plans and a simpler upgrade flow, with transparent pricing ($15 single analysis, $35 3-pack).

Faster, cleaner, more private
  • Faster load times — lighter pages and a quicker sign-in experience.

  • Streamlined sign-up & login — a cleaner, simpler authentication flow.

  • Privacy hardening — your documents and data stay private, with search-engine crawling blocked across the app.

Contractam - 1.1.0: A Faster, Smoother App Released in February 2026

We focused this release on speed and polish — getting you into the app faster and making it nicer to use, especially on your phone.

  • Quicker to open — faster load and sign-in across the app.

  • Better on mobile — a cleaner layout and improved experience on phones.

  • Small touches — show/hide password toggle, refreshed look and profile avatars.

Contractam - 1.0.0: Contractam is Live Released in January 2026

The first version of Contractam launched — upload a contract and get a clear, plain-English breakdown of what it really means for you.

Understand any contract
  • AI clause-by-clause analysis — every clause is read and explained in plain English, with the risks, the fairness, and what to watch out for.

  • Four contract types supported — Employment, Rental, NDA, and general Service/Other agreements, each analysed from your side.

  • Risk & fairness scoring — every clause is scored so you can see at a glance which ones are fair, risky, or worth pushing back on.

Take action, not just read
  • Ask Louis — chat with an AI assistant about your contract and get answers in context.

  • Negotiation scripts — get ready-to-send, professionally worded emails to negotiate the clauses that matter, with the relevant law cited.

Built to trust
  • Secure payments — simple, transparent one-time pricing via Stripe.

  • Private by design — your documents are kept secure and only visible to you.

  • Help when you need it — an in-app Help & Documentation centre.
