// HOW IT WORKS

From upload to insight
in under 30 seconds.

Main AI reads your document, classifies it by content (not filename), routes it to the right specialized engine, and surfaces every risk, gap, and action — grounded in the actual text. No summaries. Actual intelligence.

No credit card. Free tier included. 2 free analyses to start.
The process

Upload → classify → analyze → act.

Four steps, fully automated. The output is decision-ready intelligence, not a summary.

01
Upload any document

Drag and drop a PDF, DOCX, TXT, RTF, HTML, CSV, JSON, code file, or image. Main AI extracts the text immediately — no formatting conversion, no waiting. Scanned PDFs and image-only documents go through built-in OCR automatically.

Maximum file size is 50MB per document. Multiple file types can be uploaded in the same session and analyzed in parallel. The pipeline preserves the original document so you can always return to the source.

02
Document type is classified automatically

The extraction engine reads the content — not the filename — and classifies it into one of 19 specialized document types: contract, NDA, lease, offer letter, freelance agreement, invoice, financial statement, insurance policy, construction contract, code, resume, essay, medical document, syllabus, policy document, research report, and more.

Each classified type routes to a dedicated analysis engine with specialized detection logic. You never select a mode manually — and you never have to know in advance what "type" your document is.

AI surfaces findings with source evidence

Every finding is grounded in the actual document text. Main AI shows you the specific clause or sentence that triggered the finding, explains why it matters in plain English, and gives you a concrete next action — not a generic summary.

Findings are severity-scored (high, medium, low) and tagged by category (risk, missing protection, ambiguity, deadline, financial exposure, etc.). Each one cites where it lives in the document so you can verify it instantly.

Take action from the dashboard

Resolve findings, draft negotiation emails directly from a risk, ask the AI anything about your document in the chat panel, e-sign the document inside the app, export a clean PDF report, or build a tailored version in the Resume Builder or Essay Improver.

Every deadline, renewal, and obligation is captured in your Timeline. Every counterparty (the people and companies you've signed with) gets remembered across documents — so the third contract from a vendor doesn't get analyzed in a vacuum.

What makes it different

Memory, learning, and grounded findings.

Most AI document tools paraphrase and call it analysis. Main AI is built around three things general AI tools can't do: cross-document memory, decision learning, and source-grounded evidence.

🧠
Cross-document memory
The third contract you upload from a vendor isn't analyzed in a vacuum. Main AI remembers what you signed before — and tells you what's different. "Acme's indemnification cap is 4x lower than your last contract with them" is the kind of context only a tool with persistent memory can produce.
📅
Obligation timeline
Every renewal date, payment due date, notice deadline, and milestone gets extracted into your Timeline. Renewals don't slip past you — Main AI knows when notice is due and surfaces it before it matters.
📈
Decision learning
When you mark a finding as accepted, dismissed, or upgraded in severity, Main AI learns. After 10-15 documents, the analysis stops looking like a generic legal-AI checklist and starts looking like a review tailored to your priorities.
🔍
Source-grounded findings
Every finding cites the exact clause or sentence that triggered it. No hallucinations, no generic summaries — every claim is verifiable in the document. AI confidence is surfaced, not hidden.
✍️
Embedded e-signature
Sign documents directly inside Main AI. Send signing links via secure magic URL — counterparties don't need an account. Full audit trail, IP capture, timestamp, and the signed document gets archived to your workspace.
💬
Second Opinion advisor
Ask anything about your document and get a context-aware answer from the AI that has read it. "What happens if I miss a payment by 30 days?" — gets a real answer with the relevant clause cited, not a hedge.
⚖️
Compare and redline
Upload two versions of a contract and see exactly what changed. Spot redlines, flag risky additions, and confirm what you actually agreed to.
👥
Team workspaces
Shared playbook rules ("always flag indemnification caps below $500K"), multi-user accounts, member roles, and centralized billing. Available on the Team plan.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Everything you might wonder before trying Main AI.

What file types does Main AI support?
PDF, DOCX, TXT, RTF, HTML, CSV, JSON, XML, and common image formats (PNG, JPG). Scanned PDFs and image-only documents are processed through built-in OCR automatically — there's no separate conversion step.
How long does a document analysis take?
Most documents finish analysis in 10–30 seconds. Larger documents (50+ pages) or image-heavy scans that require OCR may take up to a minute. The pipeline streams progress in real time so you see findings appear as they're generated.
What types of documents can Main AI analyze?
Main AI has 19 specialized engines including: contracts (MSA, SOW, SaaS agreements), residential and commercial leases, NDAs (mutual and unilateral), offer letters and employment contracts, freelance contracts, invoices, financial statements, insurance policies, construction contracts, business plans, policies, syllabi, code repositories, resumes, essays, medical documents, research reports, and government / immigration paperwork.
Is Main AI a replacement for a lawyer?
No. Main AI is decision support — it helps you understand what you're signing, surface risks, and decide whether a document needs a human attorney. For complex litigation, regulated transactions, or high-dollar commercial deals, you should still engage qualified legal counsel. Main AI is designed to make you better-informed before that conversation, and to handle the everyday documents where hiring counsel isn't proportionate.
Is my document stored or shared with third parties?
Your documents are stored encrypted in your private workspace and are never used to train third-party AI models. Analysis is performed via API calls to Anthropic (Claude) and DeepSeek with no-retention configurations. You can delete any document at any time and it's purged from storage. Full details in our Privacy policy.
How accurate is Main AI?
Every finding is grounded in the actual document text — Main AI shows the exact clause or sentence that triggered the finding, not a generated summary. Findings are produced by deterministic specialized engines (rule-based clause detection, OCR-grounded extraction) combined with frontier-model reasoning, so output is verifiable rather than hallucinated. We disclose AI confidence on every finding and surface uncertainty rather than hide it.
Can I use Main AI for free?
Yes. The free tier includes 2 full document analyses with no credit card required. Pro plans start at $19/month and unlock unlimited analysis, e-signature, obligation timeline, counterparty memory across documents, and the Second Opinion AI advisor.
Does Main AI work on mobile?
Yes. The web app is fully responsive — you can upload, review, sign, and track documents from a phone or tablet without installing anything. iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and all modern desktop browsers are supported.
