Last tested 2026-10-19 Its example inputs were run through Claude Haiku 5.5, and an AI judge (Jev) scored the reply 74/100 for following the rules and doing the task.
That's today's free runs. Solo Pro, Founder, and SMB Team give you 100 runs a day, 1,000 checks a day, and batch runs for up to 50 contacts. New Solo Pro is $19 a month. People already on Pro stay at $15 a month or $100 a year. See plans. You can still use Open in ChatGPT, Claude, or Grok for free.
Fill in the required fields, then build your prompt.
Free. Run it here sends the prompt through our server to Claude and shows the draft on this page (5 runs a day free, 100 on a paid plan); we don't store it. Open in ChatGPT, Claude, or Grok sends the prompt to that tool instead. Sign in there first, or the prompt box may come up empty; if it does, use Copy and paste it in.
Example output
I wrote this by hand on 2026-10-19 from the made-up inputs below, to show what a good result looks like. Your results will vary, so read every draft before you use it.
Example inputs
- Term sheet text or key terms: Loan amount: $2,940,000. Rate: 5-yr Treasury + 210 bps, fixed at closing. Amortization: 30 years. Prepayment: 3-2-1 step-down. Recourse: non-recourse with standard carve-outs. DSCR covenant: 1.25x tested annually. Not a commitment to lend.
- Borrower first name: Dana
Hi Dana, here's the term sheet in plain English.
- Amount: $2,940,000.
- Rate: the 5-year Treasury rate plus 2.10%, locked when the loan closes. Your actual rate depends on where Treasuries are that day.
- Amortization: payments are figured as if the loan runs 30 years, so a balance will be left at maturity.
- Prepayment: if you pay it off early, the fee is 3% in year one, 2% in year two, and 1% in year three.
- Recourse: non-recourse, meaning you're generally not personally liable, except for the standard carve-outs like fraud.
- Covenant: the property has to cover its debt payments 1.25 times, checked once a year.
This isn't a commitment to lend. It says so in the document.
Things to ask about
- The loan's maturity date (it isn't in what you sent)
- What happens if the 1.25x test is missed AI drafts can be wrong. Check every fact, name, and number before you send anything. Free: build prompts with no limit and 5 AI runs a day. A paid plan: 100 runs a day, 1,000 checks a day, batch runs for 50 contacts.
