Hidden Catch scans employment contracts and offer letters and returns a plain-English, severity-ranked report - so you understand the non-compete, the IP terms, and the exit conditions before you sign.
Your document is never stored on our servers.
An offer letter sets the salary; the contract sets everything else. Non-compete and non-solicit clauses, invention-assignment terms, bonus clawbacks, and termination conditions all shape your options long after day one - and they are rarely explained to you plainly.
Hidden Catch reads the full contract and surfaces the clauses that affect your money, your mobility, and your ownership of what you create, each quoted and explained with a suggested question to raise before you accept.
Restrictions on where you can work next or who you can contact - sometimes for a year or more after you leave.
Terms assigning the company rights to what you create, occasionally reaching beyond work done on the job.
Conditions that let the employer take back a signing bonus, commission, or equity if you leave early.
At-will language, unequal notice periods, or "for cause" definitions that favor the employer.
Clauses that route disputes to private arbitration and waive your right to join a class action.
Provisions letting the employer change your role, location, or pay largely at will.
Yes - offer letters, employment agreements, contractor agreements, and equity or bonus schedules. Paste, upload, or photograph the document.
No. Hidden Catch helps you understand the document. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. For a decision this important, consider consulting an employment attorney.
