AEGIS DEAL
Expert enterprise contracts.
Without the enterprise legal bill.
Requires Aegis Start or Aegis Raise. Break-even on your first contract.

It doesnt have to be this painful - Aegis can help. Aegis gives you a hyper-customized form, a built-in playbook for how to use it, AI-assisted lawyer triage, and loops in expert human attorney negotiations when you need them, so you close faster for less.
Aegis Deal: $999/month | $9,999/year (17% savings)
Add-on to Aegis Start ($349/mo) or Aegis Raise ($999/mo)
$1,999FREE onboarding for a limited time
Includes: Click-through Agreement Delivery, Negotiation Playbooks, Attorney Redlines, Custom Agreements

Ready to close deals faster with less legal spend?
Here is how enterprise deals die.
Month 1: The handshake
You agree to a six-figure annual contract. Sales is celebrating. They ask for your form, but you don't have one. You've been paying BigLaw $10,000 a contract to review customer forms.
"Just need to get this through legal and procurement."
Month 2: The customer's form MSA arrives
40 pages. Unlimited liability. Exit-killing indemnities you don't recognize. No IP rights to provide your service, but they somehow still own it. It's Friday.
"Can your lawyer review by Monday?"
You call your BigLaw firm. They say $3,000-5,000 just to review and let you know how bad it is.
You email your fractional GC. They say, "This is not really my specialty, I need to research."
You try ChatGPT. It says, "The terms look standard." (They are not.)
Month 3: The negotiation
5 rounds of redlines. Each round, your lawyer bills 3-8 hours.
Legal bill is now like $8,000. Deal value: $100K.
You're spending a huge percentage of the contract value on legal.
Month 4: The death spiral
Procurement says, "We need a DPA." You do not have one.
They need a custom SLA. You do not have one.
They need security questionnaires completed. You are drowning.
Deal status: Delayed. Legal budget: Blown. Competitors: Circling.
Or: You use Aegis Deal
Day 1: Send your form
Send your perfect form as a click-through to your champion (2 minutes).
Day 2: Fast acceptance
80% of the time they just click and sign it - 20%, they quickly download it in Word for their legal.
Day 10: Legal sends back changes
Their legal takes forever and sends back 3 changes.
Day 11: Aegis triages instantly
Aegis breaks out the business terms you can accept right away and sends the legalese to the right lawyer.
Day 14: Close
You send back redlines. They accept. No call required.
Legal cost: <$1,000. Deal status: Closed.
Do not pay for your playbook - our experts build it for you.
Enterprise contracts have 200+ clauses. You do not know which ones matter. Your lawyer charges $900-1,700/hr to explain.
Most founders either:
Accept everything (bad idea - you will pay in exit diligence)
Push back on everything (bad idea - you look difficult)
Give up and lose the deal (worst idea)
Once you have your first big deal, start using your leverage.
Every clause gets guidance:
This is market standard. Do not waste cycles.
Push back here. We'll get you the right lawyer.
This is unusual. We'll get you the right lawyer to take a deep dive.
What makes our playbooks different:
Built by specialists, not generalists.
An enterprise AI commercial contracting specialist with decades of privacy and security training and specific software licensing deal negotiation experience built our enterprise AI processes.
That expertise is in every playbook. Updated continuously. Across every vertical. By experts in that vertical.
Your healthtech lawyer and your fintech lawyer need very different knowledge. You need the right human lawyer sometimes. Aegis Deal knows the difference and how to help the human move faster and bill less.
When you need a lawyer, get one fast.
(For way less than BigLaw.)
How it works:
Upload the inbound contract
Free t-shirt size estimate of work to review
You handle the business items without paying a lawyer to ask
Attorney handles the legalese
Send the agreed terms as a click-through
Human turnaround:
We find a lawyer who can meet your timeline. Rush available for urgent deals.
Pricing transparency:
Most contracts: $550-800/hr for <1 hour for attorney review of flagged items
Complex contracts: $550-800/hr for phone and redline negotiations
Compare to BigLaw:
"Read this MSA": $2,500-5,000
"Here are our redlines": $3,000-8,000
"Let us negotiate": $15,000-30,000
You are paying 70-99% less because:
AI customizes the first draft
You handle the easy stuff
Efficient specialist attorneys bill only on what matters
Your own enterprise agreements.
Based on your actual business.
Not over-standard templates that make your customers' lawyer flip out.
The problem with templates:
You googled "SaaS MSA template" and found something. You asked ChatGPT Pro ($200/month) to write you a contract. Seems cheap compared to BigLaw. But that $200 doesn't include the $10,000+ to fix what it gets wrong.
Here is what you do not know:
The template might not match your business model or what you can actually do
ChatGPT might have made the perfect form - for your customer to ghost you without paying
You might have put a blocker on your exit
The wrong contract is never free.
What Aegis provides:
Custom agreements built for your business:
Master Service Agreement (MSA)
Data Processing Agreement (DPA)
Service Level Agreement (SLA)
Order Forms
Security Addenda
BAAs (for healthcare)
Custom integrations
Process:
We interview you to learn the business
Elite commercial attorney drafts your forms to sail through
You let us know when the business changes, and we make updates
Your forms get sent to your champion as a click-through - they do not start with the lawyers
Your champion can send it to legal, but they do not have to
When they do, legal has little to complain about
$1,999FREE onboarding with custom draft
Then: generate unlimited customer cycles for a tight monthly fee.
Enforcement:
Proper consent mechanisms (so the click-through is enforceable)
Your-specific terms (not generic templates)
Right to data you need, without giving away more than the service
Exit-optimized liability limits, indemnities, and warranties
The math is embarrassingly simple.

LAWYER-IN-THE-LOOP
“I'll just ask ChatGPT.”
Here's why that's a $1,000+ mistake.
ChatGPT (and other AI)
- ✗
Doesn't know YOUR business context
- ✗
You don't know what question to ask
- ✗
Gives the answer you want, not the answer you need
- ✗
Legal reasoning requires process, not just logic
- ✗
No way to verify if it's hallucinating
- ✗
"Should I sign this?" is the WRONG question
Common failure:
You ask: “Is this contract okay?”
ChatGPT says: “Yes, the terms look standard.”
Reality: Standard—for the other party. You're signing away rights you don't even know you have.
Aegis
- ✓
AI + humans who know YOUR company
- ✓
We know what questions to ask YOU
- ✓
Elite lawyers verify everything AI outputs
- ✓
Processes designed by specialists, not general AI
- ✓
Human-in-the-loop = hallucination-proof
- ✓
We'll tell you the RIGHT question: "Sign, walk, or negotiate?"
How Aegis handles it:
You ask: “Is this contract okay?”
Aegis: “What's your leverage? Who's the counterparty? Here's what I'd push back on—and here's when to walk away.”
The biggest problem using AI for your lawyer: you don't know the right question, and it doesn't know how to determine the right answer.
