DoNotPay's 'Robot Lawyer' Offers Advice On License Agreements Before You Accept The Terms

DoNotPay, the popular robot lawyer that helps users contest parking tickets and sue people is now launching a new tool called Do Not Sign. This latest tool aims to help users better understand license agreements. DoNotPay’s monthly subscription fee of $3 already includes the nifty new tool.

Do Not Sign allows users to upload, scan, copy, and paste the URLs of any kind of license agreement that they would like to check. It utilizes machine learning to identify clauses it thinks users must know about. This includes options to choose not to allow data collection.

Do Not Sign is available starting Nov. 20, 2019, on the web or through the DoNotPay app on iOS. This new tool is handy, especially to the majority of users who usually hit the accept or agree to continue button without reading the entire contract. While Do Not Sign is not a replacement to any lawyer, but its a great alternative than accepting license agreement that you have not thoroughly read and understood.

Moreover, Do Not Sign highlights and informs the user, for instance, that a particular service reserves its rights to stop providing its services at any time or that the services it is providing are at the user’s risk. The latest tool also helps users take advantage of any rights that the contracts owned them. For just $3/ month, Do Not Sign identifies and allows users to opt-out of these terms and can even send letters on behalf of the user.

Additional compelling benefits the company says Do Not Sign can do includes identifying complimentary lost-bag insurance offered by some credits. It can also help in claiming an exception to a pet fee policy in servicing animals. Do Not Pay CEO and Founder Joshua Bowder reveals that the team has identified approximately 200 various vital terms that Do Not Sign looks for in contracts.

Machine learning is used to help find these clauses and all their versions. The system rarely comes up with false positives, but there are situations where the software misses particular elements, shares Browder. Do Not Sign is now available in the US, and the company hopes to introduce the service to the UK before the year ends.
