ClauseDojo

You sign more contracts than you think - a phone plan, an app's terms, a first lease - and almost nobody reads them. A contract is just a list of clauses, and reading one is a skill: for each clause, who does it favour, and what does it let the other party do? Spot the auto-renewal that keeps charging you, the arbitration line that gives up your day in court, the fee that locks you in - and the fair clauses that don't. Predict the reading, then mark up a whole contract. Real close-reading, no internet. Ages 15-18.

Characters who teach

Meet the cast

ClauseDojo is for ages 15-18 - no illustrated cast; the 'characters' are the clauses you learn to read. RENEWAL is the clause that renews itself and keeps charging you unless you cancel by a deadline - usually earlier than you'd expect. ARBITRATION is the line that quietly takes away your day in court and your right to a class action. FEE is the lock-in, priced so that leaving early feels too expensive to do. CANCEL is how you actually get out: the notice, the deadline, and whether it costs you anything. Redline, the mentor, is the careful reader with the red pen who marks up every contract and never signs one unread - and who insists that a fair, symmetric clause is NOT a trap, because knowing which clauses not to flag is half the skill. Every reading is checked on-device by a deterministic clause engine - nothing hand-waved, nothing leaves the device, and these are synthetic contracts for practice, not legal advice.

R

Renewal

The auto-renewal clause: it renews the deal and keeps charging you unless you cancel by a deadline, so you have to act to STOP paying

A

Arbitration

The line that moves any dispute into private arbitration and waives your class action - you give up suing in court before any dispute exists

F

Fee

The lock-in: an early-termination fee or penalty priced so that leaving feels too expensive, favouring the company against you

C

Cancel

How you actually get out - the notice period, the deadline, and whether it costs anything; a fair, symmetric version is NOT a red flag

R

Redline

The careful reader with the red pen, who marks up every contract, never signs one unread, and can tell a real trap from an ordinary term
