FinePrint Find my legal gaps

Legal coverage that matches the stage you’re at.

A company that just incorporated and a company closing enterprise deals in eleven states do not have the same legal problem. They shouldn’t be sold the same thing, and they shouldn’t pay the same price.

By stage What every plan includes Pricing How the work is counted FAQ

Three stages, three different failures.

Legal work doesn’t get harder in a straight line. It changes shape. Each stage has one thing that goes wrong first — and it is almost never the thing founders are worried about.

Stage 01

Solo founder & pre-seed

Get incorporated properly — and stay that way.

For one to three founders, a handful of contractors, and no board yet. The company exists, but almost nothing about it has been written down correctly. This is the stage where the mistakes are cheap to prevent and expensive to unwind, because the deadline that matters is thirty days long and nobody diarized it.

  • Formation, done as a transaction — charter, bylaws, founder stock, first board consent.
  • 83(b) elections with the 30-day clock on the record, not in your head.
  • IP assignment from every founder and every contractor, before the code matters.
  • The Legal DataRoom from day one, so there is nothing to reconstruct later.
  • Franchise tax and annual report dates already on the calendar.

Stage 02

Series A

Diligence tests your record, not your lawyers.

For a company with real hires, a board, a priced round in front of it, and eighteen months of paperwork behind it that nobody has reconciled. A request list arrives and the company discovers, in public, which of its documents disagree with each other. The work is not writing new documents. It’s proving the old ones are true.

  • A standing diligence file — the request list answered before the request list arrives.
  • Cap table and consents reconciled — every grant traced to the board approval that authorized it.
  • 409A currency watched, with grants blocked when the valuation has expired.
  • Employment cleanup — every state you actually have a person in, registered.
  • Priority matter review when the round goes Red and a specialist leads.

Stage 03

Growth

Volume is the problem now.

For a company selling to enterprises, hiring across states, and running more than one entity. Nothing here is legally novel. There is simply more of it than one person can hold: a DPA on every deal, a security questionnaire behind it, a new jurisdiction each time recruiting wins, and a board that expects minutes rather than a shoebox.

  • Contract volume — NDAs, order forms, MSAs and DPAs drafted, reviewed and tracked to renewal.
  • Multi-state employment — registrations, notices and handbook updates as each state arrives.
  • Multiple entities — subsidiaries and their filings held in one record.
  • Custom policies — your positions and fallbacks encoded, so the answer is the same every time.
  • API access — endpoints called from the systems your team already lives in.

Stage 04

Enterprise & custom

Your policies, your keys, your terms.

For companies with an existing legal function, a regulated posture, or a security review that has to be satisfied before anything is signed. The endpoints are the same; the governance around them is yours. Bring your own playbook and FinePrint runs to it. Bring your own key management and the record encrypts under it. Bring your own paper for the engagement and we’ll work to it rather than the other way around.

Talk to us about Enterprise How it’s secured

Every plan

What runs the same at every stage.

The plan decides how much work you run and which specialists you get. It does not decide whether the machine underneath is the real one. It is the same machine on the $99 plan and the enterprise agreement.

  • The record

    Three views of one thing: the Company Legal Graph — what your company legally is; the Legal DataRoom — the signed evidence behind it; and Today — what needs a decision. Workflows read the record before they act and write back after, so it is current by construction rather than current because someone remembered.

  • The 41 endpoints

    Formation 4 · Governance 6 · Hiring 6 · Equity 6 · Fundraising 5 · Commercial 6 · IP 4 · Compliance 4. An endpoint is not a template. It’s the whole transaction — documents, approvals, signatures, filings, record updated after. Which endpoints your plan opens up varies; what an endpoint does never does.

  • The judgment lanes

    Green — agents execute, with your approval, and the network scores the output continuously. Yellow — a lawyer confirms, with the attorney and the scope on screen before anything moves, and no fee attached. Red — a specialist lawyer leads, with the file already built. Nothing starts until you approve it.

  • The Legal DataRoom

    Every executed document, versioned and indexed, with the evidence trail behind it. It is not an archive you fill in later — it is where the endpoints put their output as they finish. Share a room in a click when diligence starts.

  • Network review

    Licensed attorneys in the OpenLegal network review endpoint output continuously — anonymized, sampled, scored and flagged, the way production code gets reviewed. Their corrections train OpenLegalLM, so a flag raised on one company’s work makes the endpoint sharper for every company at once.

  • Export or delete

    Your record is encrypted, isolated to your company, held under per-document keys, and never training data for a shared model. You can export the whole thing, or delete it permanently, any day you choose — on every plan, including the $99 one.

How the agents work Inside the Legal DataRoom

Priced for the company, not per seat.

How the work is counted

Every plan includes credits. Endpoints draw credits as they run — a one-credit endpoint is a single document with a signature on it; a five-credit endpoint is a transaction with seven documents, a board approval and two filings behind it. The credit price of an endpoint is printed on the endpoint before you run it, and the running total sits at the top of the screen. Credits refresh monthly.

Attorney review is included. A matter that needs a lawyer shows you the attorney and the scope before anything moves, and nothing starts until you approve it — but there is no fee to approve, because the review is part of the subscription. If a month is going to run past your credits, you’re told before the next endpoint runs, not on an invoice afterwards.

Around 90% less than the retainer model, and the reason isn’t a discount. The routine work — the drafting, the approvals, the signature chasing, the filings, the remembering — runs as agents, priced like software. The judgment comes from licensed attorneys, engaged for the matters that actually need one, inside the same subscription. And nobody bills you to get up to speed on your own company, because the record was already current when the matter opened.

The $99 plan is about what a startup firm bills in ten minutes.

What an endpoint draws

EndpointCreditsWhat that covers
/create-nda1Drafted from your position, sent for signature, filed in the DataRoom.
/assign-ip1One assignment, executed and attached to the person and the work it covers.
/file-83b1Election prepared, mailed, tracked to receipt, the 30-day clock closed out.
/review-contract2Counterparty paper read against your playbook, issue list, redline returned.
/create-board-consent2Consent drafted from the record, routed to the directors, countersigned and filed.
/foreign-qualify2 + feeRegistration prepared and filed with the state. Government fee at cost.
/grant-options3Grant papered against the plan, the pool and a current 409A, with the consent behind it.
/issue-safe3SAFE issued, side terms checked, cap table and record updated after.
/incorporate5 + feeCharter, bylaws, founder stock, first consent, EIN. State fee at cost.
/hire-employee5The full hire: offer, PIIA, policies, and the grant documents that go with it.

Government fees are passed through at cost — Secretary of State filings, franchise tax, USPTO fees, registration fees. FinePrint does not mark them up and does not charge a credit for paying them.

“Around 90% less than the retainer model” compares the published subscription against what the same volume of routine corporate work costs when it is bought by the hour from a firm on retainer. The reasoning is above; we’re not going to dress it up as a study.

FinePrint is a legal technology company, not a law firm, and does not provide legal advice. Where judgment is required, a licensed attorney reviews the matter or takes it, engaged by you, with the scope shown first and the review included in your plan.

What a matter actually costs, worked through.

Three real shapes of work, counted end to end. Green runs as agents. Yellow puts an attorney and a scope on screen before anything moves — at no cost on top of the plan. You approve first, every time.

The matter What runs Credits Where a lawyer comes in
An NDA arrives from a prospect and needs to go back today /review-contract — read against your playbook, three deviations flagged, redline and a plain-English issue list returned, executed copy filed. 2 Green. No lawyer needed. The network samples and scores this output continuously in the background.
The Sarah Kim hire — a senior engineer, remote from Denver, the company’s first Colorado employee /hire-employee 5 · /create-board-consent 2 · /foreign-qualify 2 — seven documents, a board written consent for the option grant, the Statement of Foreign Entity Authority, payroll registrations and a workers’ comp endorsement. 9 + Colorado fees at cost Yellow on one question only: an existing restrictive covenant with a former employer. J. Alvarez, employment, Colorado — scope approved Monday 9:31 AM, cleared Wednesday 11:40 AM, no charge on top of the plan. The other twelve steps stayed Green.
A SAFE issued to an angel who wants to put in $50,000 before the round /issue-safe 3 · /create-board-consent 2 — instrument issued on your standard terms, side terms checked against what you’ve already promised, cap table and record updated after. 5 Green on standard terms. It turns Yellow the moment the investor sends back their own paper — a most-favored-nation clause or a board observer seat is a judgment call, and you’ll see the attorney and the scope before it’s answered.

The rule underneath all three: you never find out what something cost afterwards. The credit price is on the endpoint before it runs, attorney review costs nothing on top of the plan, and the government fee is the government’s number. Northwind Robotics and everyone in it are fictional; the mechanism is not.

Compared with the alternatives.

All four of these are real options and three of them are genuinely useful. What separates them isn’t quality — it’s who is holding the company’s record, and who is watching the calendar when nobody has asked a question.

An hourly firm A template library A contract-AI tool FinePrint
Who holds your record The firm holds the matters it worked on. The parts it never touched aren’t anywhere. Nobody. You hold the output, in whatever folder you saved it to. The tool holds the contracts it processed. Not the cap table, the consents or the filings. FinePrint holds all of it, in one record — entity, ownership, board, contracts, IP, filings, obligations — and every workflow reads it before it acts.
Who watches the calendar You do. The firm answers the question you asked, on the day you asked it. You do. Renewal dates on the contracts it ingested. Nothing else. The system does, across the whole record: the 83(b) window, the 409A expiry, the franchise tax, the registration a new state just triggered.
Who does the judgment A licensed attorney. This is what you’re paying for, and it’s the right answer. You do, from a document written for a company that isn’t yours. A model, with the boundary between “drafting” and “advice” left to you to police. Agents run what’s routine. A licensed attorney reviews or leads anything that isn’t — Yellow or Red — with the scope on screen first, included in the subscription.
What one hire costs Billable time on the offer, the PIIA, the consent, the grant and each state filing — plus time getting up to speed on your cap table. The document is free and the board consent, the filings and the registrations are not in the box. Out of scope. A hire isn’t a contract review. 9 credits inside your plan and the state fees at cost. The attorney review that question needed cost nothing extra.
What happens at diligence A reconstruction project, billed hourly, in the four weeks you least want one. You assemble the folder yourself and find out what’s missing while investors watch. A contract export. The corporate half of the request list is untouched. The Legal DataRoom is the diligence file, and has been all along. Share a room in a click; the gaps were flagged months before.

FinePrint is not a cheaper firm. It’s the coverage a well-funded company already has — the function that knows the entity, holds the calendar, and catches the question before it becomes a problem.

Questions people ask before they sign up.

What happens when I run out of credits?

You’re told before the next endpoint runs — not afterwards, and not on an invoice. Every endpoint prints its credit price before it starts, and the running total is at the top of the screen, so the month doesn’t surprise you. From there you can wait for the refresh, move up a plan, or add credits at the same published rate.

Do I pay extra when a lawyer gets involved?

No. Attorney review is included in the subscription. When a matter goes Yellow you see the attorney and the scope on screen and you approve the scope — there is no fee attached to it, and no invoice afterwards. In the demo matter that’s J. Alvarez, employment, Colorado, for one question about a restrictive covenant.

If the attorney finds the scope was wrong — the question turned out to be a bigger question — the matter stops and comes back to you with the new scope before it goes any further. Work outside a scope you approved doesn’t happen.

Who is the attorney actually working for?

You. Matter review is a real engagement between you and a licensed attorney in the OpenLegal network, conflict-checked and engaged properly before anything begins. FinePrint is a legal technology company, not a law firm, and does not provide legal advice.

The independence runs the other way too: the application side cannot override a reviewer’s flag, and reviewer pay is never contingent on approving anything.

Can I switch plans, and what happens to the work I’ve already run?

Move up or down at any time; the plan controls which specialists and endpoints are available and how many credits refresh each month. Nothing that has already run is affected — executed documents, filings and the record are yours regardless of the plan you’re on.

Moving down means fewer specialists and fewer credits. It never means losing the record or the DataRoom.

What happens if I leave?

You export everything — the whole Legal DataRoom, the Company Legal Graph, every executed document and filing receipt, in a format your next counsel can actually open. Or you delete it permanently. Both are available on every plan, on any day, without a conversation.

Your record was never training data for a shared model, so there is nothing of yours left behind to remove. That’s the Two-Corpus Rule: OpenLegalLM learns from its contributors, never from your record.

Why isn’t this priced per seat?

Because per-seat pricing makes companies ration access to their own legal function, and the person who most needs to send the right NDA is usually the person who wouldn’t get a seat. The plan is for the company. The recruiter, the founder and the account executive all use it.

Do I still need my law firm?

For a financing, a dispute, an acquisition or a regulated question — yes, and FinePrint routes those Red, with the file already built: the record, the documents, the history and the issue list assembled before the first call. That is how you spend less on a specialist without getting less from one.

What changes is the other 90% of the work, which stops being billed by the hour — and you are never billed for the attorney either. OpenLegalLM carries what the network has taught it; when a question falls outside that, the network answers it, the answer becomes part of what the model knows, and your subscription does not move.
