Dispute mediation
Four clear stages. No step skipped, no cent unaccounted for.
Each node pulses when that stage is active. The traveling dot shows value moving through the deal.
Four clear steps keep both sides protected — money only moves when everyone has done their part.
Set the amount, the deliverables, and the milestone schedule. Invite the other side with a single-use link and verification code.
The buyer funds the deal. Nothing is released to the seller until the funds are confirmed and the terms are locked in.
The seller delivers the work or the asset. The buyer inspects within an agreed window, with a neutral mediator on standby.
On approval, funds release to the seller. Disputes go to a neutral mediator; a double-entry ledger keeps every cent accounted for.
Every movement of value is recorded as a balanced pair of debits and credits. No cent appears or disappears — the ledger is always in equilibrium.
Confirmed funding
Deals only advance once funding is verified.
Dual-control on large payouts
Two approvers required before any release.
Hash-chained audit log
Every state change cryptographically signed.
Envelope-encrypted PII
Emails and addresses AES-256-GCM encrypted.
Every layer is designed to keep funds safe and the terms of a deal enforceable.
Split a project into stages and release payment stage by stage, so neither side carries the whole risk at once.
A human mediator resolves disputes against the written terms and the submitted evidence, with full audit history.
A clear sliding-scale fee from 5% down to 1.35% with a $30 minimum. No hidden charges, ever.
Terms, deliverables, and messages are captured as they happen, so a dispute is decided on a record rather than on memory.
A tamper-evident ledger accounts for every cent across escrow, fees, and settlement — fully auditable.
Deal details are envelope-encrypted at rest and access is scoped to the parties on the deal.
From freelance milestones to marketplace payouts, Clausegauge secures the deals that are too risky to do on a handshake.
Milestone-based payment for design, development, and content work — funded up front, released on delivery.
Hold buyer funds while a marketplace order is fulfilled, then release to the seller on confirmation.
Two companies with no prior relationship can transact without either side fronting the whole risk.
High-value domain and site transfers with a neutral mediator on standby for the handover.
Software licenses, activation keys, and account transfers delivered against locked escrow.
Source code, designs, templates, and downloadable goods where delivery needs to be verified.
An AI-powered review layer for contracts and deal documents, re-checked every time the content changes, with human review for consequential decisions. We are building this now.
Analyze contracts and deal documents and extract key terms, obligations, parties, and dates.
Flag risky or non-standard clauses so they get a human look before anyone signs.
Check each deal against company policy and playbooks and see exactly where it deviates.
Content is re-checked whenever a document is uploaded, edited, or re-submitted, so reviews always reflect the latest version.
Compare clauses against your preferred language and earlier versions of the same document.
Get suggested redlines for flagged clauses, ready for a reviewer to accept or reject.
A clear risk score and plain-language summary for every contract and deal.
Exportable reports of what was checked, what was flagged, and who approved it.
None of the following is live yet. These are the three places where we believe machine learning genuinely improves an escrow product, and they are what we are building next.
Score new deals and counterparties on behavioural signals so high-risk transactions get extra verification before funding.
Summarise the evidence on a disputed deal and surface the relevant clauses, so a human mediator decides faster and more consistently.
Turn a plain-language description of a project into clear, structured milestones and acceptance criteria.
The same deal, with and without a neutral party holding the funds.
Funds are confirmed before a deal advances, held in escrow, and released only when both sides have delivered. Sensitive data is encrypted, and every movement is recorded in a tamper-evident ledger.
Escrow balances the risk so neither side has to go first on trust.
Every cent moves along a verified path. No shortcuts.
Funded escrow
Buyer funds a unique per-deal address. Confirmed before the deal advances.
Verified delivery
Seller delivers. Buyer inspects within the agreed window.
Recorded release
Payout is executed and recorded, with a receipt available to both sides.
How deals are funded today
Escrow deals can be funded and settled in digital assets or in traditional currency. The mechanics, supported assets, confirmation rules, and costs are documented on the settlement page.
Everything you need to know before your first deal.
Funds are held in escrow and only released when both parties have met the agreed terms. Neither side can walk away with the money, and a neutral mediator is always on standby.
Deals can be funded and settled in digital assets (USDT, ETH, BNB, SOL, TRX across Ethereum, BNB Chain, TRON, and Solana) or in traditional currency. Full details are on the settlement page.
A sliding-scale platform fee from 5% down to 1.35% with a $30 minimum, plus a 0.5% seller settlement fee. Network costs are passed through at cost.
$400 to $50,000 per deal. The fee tier automatically gets cheaper as deal size grows.
Either side can open a dispute. A neutral mediator reviews the evidence, applies the written terms, and issues a final decision — release, refund, or partial settlement — all recorded in the ledger.
An AI-powered tool, currently in development, that analyzes contracts and deal documents, extracts key terms, obligations, and dates, flags risky or non-standard clauses, and checks deals against company policy and playbooks. Content is re-checked every time a document is uploaded, edited, or re-submitted. Human review stays in place for consequential decisions.
Not in production yet. The contract scanner and deal checker, fraud scoring, dispute assistance, and terms drafting are in development and are clearly marked as such rather than shipped.
