Red Flags
ProChatGPT already does this for free. Your paying customer must prefer your specific tool over the AI they already have open in another tab. That's a genuinely high bar requiring a compelling niche focus.
Legal liability is existential. If your summary misses a clause that costs a user money, they may pursue legal action. Disclaimer language helps but doesn't fully protect you, and one lawsuit can close a small startup.
Lawyers actively discourage clients from using AI legal tools. Getting traction in professional B2B contexts means fighting institutional resistance from the very people your users might consult for validation.

- Collect a waitlist or take a pre-order to prove they'll act, not just nod.
