Game Publisher Deal Analyzer
A web app that ingests publishing contracts and turns unclear terms into plain-English risk summaries, recoupment scenarios, and negotiation flags. It directly addresses the strongest pain in the discussion: developers do not understand the real economics of rev-share agreements until it is too late.
これが重要な理由
You are being asked to give up future revenue based on terms that sound straightforward until you examine the details. The danger is not the headline percentage alone; it is the fine print around what gets recouped, when payments begin, what counts as net revenue, and how long the share lasts. If you are a small studio, you often do not have the time or specialized knowledge to model those outcomes, so you end up relying on intuition, scattered advice, or expensive specialist counsel. That creates a real chance of signing a deal that looks supportive on day one but becomes economically lopsided later.

失敗する可能性がある理由
自己反論 — 最も重要な信頼のシグナル
- 1Developers may still prefer a human lawyer for any meaningful decision, limiting software-only willingness to pay.
- 2Private contracts are hard to collect, so benchmark quality may remain too weak for trusted recommendations.
- 3Publishers and legal professionals may challenge the product if positioning drifts too close to legal advice.
