As of 13 August 2026, AI can only partly check your UK terms for unfair consumer contract clauses.

What to actually do

1. Hand it to a person

   The route this page recommends

   Someone with a licence or accountable authority has to sign this before it counts.

2. Use a tool built for this

   Second choice

3. Do it yourself

   The distant third

   A chat interface, chat-fluent skill, and roughly 1 hour until you can act on the result.

   How to actually do it

   1. Open the current version of your UK consumer terms and collect the business facts that affect them, including what you sell, who buys it, how customers accept the terms and when they see them.
   2. Paste the complete terms and those facts into the prompt, keeping clause numbers, headings, cancellation wording, pricing and schedules intact.
   3. Ask the model to produce a clause-by-clause issue list with quotations, missing facts, UK source links and a separate list of drafting problems.
   4. Open each cited GOV.UK or other official source and compare its wording and scope with the model's explanation, recording any citation that does not support the point.
   5. Send the original terms, the business facts, the issue list and the checked sources to a UK solicitor who handles consumer contracts, and ask for a written decision on every flagged clause.
   6. Apply only changes approved by the solicitor, then compare the final document against the approved version and the customer journey before publishing it.

   Prompt

   Review the UK consumer terms pasted below for clauses that may be unfair, unclear, misleading or unenforceable. Treat this as issue-spotting only, not professional advice, and do not give a final legal opinion.
   
   For each concern, provide:
   1. The clause number and a short quotation.
   2. The specific risk in plain English.
   3. The consumer-facing harm or imbalance that could result.
   4. The relevant UK legal principle, legislation or official guidance, with a link to the source where possible.
   5. Whether the concern depends on facts not provided.
   6. A practical question or change for a solicitor to consider.
   
   Check for terms about cancellation, refunds, automatic renewal, price changes, liability limits, termination, unilateral changes, governing law, dispute resolution, access to remedies, delivery, subscriptions, data use and hidden charges. Do not invent business facts, case law, sources or conclusions. Separate clear drafting problems from issues that require legal judgement. State which parts of the analysis must be checked by a UK solicitor before publication.
