IR35 Scoring
The IR35 demo shows a score of 7 (out of 100) with an "Inside IR35" determination at 72% confidence. A low score in IR35 means the engagement is likely caught by the off-payroll rules.
What Each Demo Shows
Contract Review (score 42/D) -- a deliberately weak contract with issues in definitions, payment terms, IP ownership, limitation of liability, and termination provisions. Demonstrates the full clause-by-clause analysis with risk scores, recommendations with current and replacement text, and document metadata.
