The problem

Freelancers Get
Burned Without
Protection.

You do the work. The client disappears. Or pays half. Or suddenly wants five extra rounds of changes for free. Sound familiar?

A proper contract changes everything. It sets clear expectations, protects your payment, establishes who owns the work and gives you legal footing if things go wrong.

Most freelancers know they need contracts. They just don't have a tool that makes it easy, professional and legally relevant to where they actually work.

💸
Unpaid Invoices
Without a contract specifying payment terms and late payment interest, chasing money is almost impossible.
📋
Scope Creep
A clearly defined scope of work and revision policy stops clients adding work without paying for it.
⚖️
IP Disputes
Who owns the work? Without an IP clause the answer is legally ambiguous and potentially costly.
📝
Word Templates Are Useless
Generic contract templates found online aren't jurisdiction-specific, look unprofessional and offer false security.

What Freelancers
Are Saying

★★★★★
"I'd been sending clients a Word document I found on Google years ago. ClauseKit replaced it with something that actually looks professional and has real Irish law references. Night and day difference."
SM
SARAH M.
Web Designer, Dublin
★★★★★
"The jurisdiction selector is brilliant. I work with clients in Ireland, UK and the US. One tool, three different contract versions. The late payment clause alone has already paid for itself."
JR
JAMES R.
Copywriter, London
★★★★★
"A client tried to dispute ownership of work after I delivered it. I had the IP clause from ClauseKit. Case closed. Worth every cent just for that one conversation."

For the vast majority of freelance engagements, these contracts are more than sufficient.
