# AELA AI

> AELA AI is an AI-powered contract analysis platform for freelancers, consultants, agencies, and independent professionals. Upload any contract (PDF, DOCX, TXT) and receive a full risk breakdown, clause rewrites, negotiation guidance, and a plain-language summary in under 2 minutes.

## What AELA Does

AELA replaces the $500/hour contract lawyer for everyday business contracts. It runs four proprietary engines on every uploaded document:

- **Strategic Contract Analysis & Guidance (SCAG)**: Full clause-by-clause review with risk scoring, red-flag detection, and AI-suggested rewrites.
- **Clause Consequence Simulator**: Models the real-world financial, legal, and operational impact of each clause.
- **Negotiation Pressure Meter**: Quantifies leverage on each side and recommends concrete counteroffers.
- **Contract Psychology Briefs**: Plain-language explanation of what each party is really trying to achieve.

Detection accuracy: 99% on red flags. Average analysis time: under 2 minutes. Supported formats: PDF, DOCX, TXT.
